Not true. The bids we made right at the end of the window were less than Villa we’re asking for him earlier that Summer.

how do you know this?

Also, even if it is true, so what? that’s how business works! We obviously valued him at less, we are not obliged to pay whatever they want. So they asked 30m at the start of the summer and we offered what 20/25m(?) At the end? What’s the issue you are upset with?

Imagine if Levy had paid the asking price for every player we've bought. We'd have about half the amount of players.

Or we would have done a Leeds

Don't you mean more?

I.e. we bid tuppence, they wanted £20m, we wouldn't pay it... then a month later we offered £25m (or whatever, amounts are not key here)?

Looks like David Brooks who went to Bournemouth might be the one of these who got away

I like what Howe’s doing down there with these transfers, Mings, Cook, Brooks, etc. Hoovering up the talented young championship players.

Sorry, yes I meant more. I have corrected my original post.

Reminds me of a young Chrissy Waddle.

No reason we can’t buy him off Bournemouth if he proves himself

For £70m rather than £10m

We were looking at him at Sheffield when he was there

Looks like a player progressing nicely and developing at the right club for him

He's a prick though. Got involved in a big scuffle with teammates and staff at the end of season awards night

 

[Legohamster]

Another game I’ve not been impressed with him in the slightest.

It seems he Makes the wrong decision every time

He looked ok tonight with Pochettino though he would have to up his game. He needs a push and I think he could be a excellent acquisition.

Who are you on about ?

He speaks extremely highly of you too

Brooks. He had a big punch up with Paul Coutts a few months ago at the end of season do. That's one of the reasons they let him go so easily.

 

[billyiddo]

He looks about 8 stone wet, can't have put up much of a fight
