Do you not find it embarassing how smalltime we are when it comes to getting deals done ??

The issue is not if he is perfect or what we need. It's that Arsenal took a player off us. Under our nose. Worse than William as it's the scum
Had that exact thoughtI'd also say that if this window doesn't make the club seriously consider the nature of relationship we have with CCA after being pretty much used as pawns to get one of their clients a new deal and force the hand of their other clients favoured destination then....well, i don't know...been utterly played by them this window.
The release clause was for 1 upfront payment. We agreed a deal with multi year installments. Its why Arsenal waited to move tooJust excuses now
Looks like we finally offered up the amount that would have triggered the clause, but it was to late
Should have done it last week.
It will be a 23 years old in Akliouche IMOAt least we can look forward to another 18yr old from somewhere and one for the future for 40mil
Its not bad luck. Everyone knew the deal with Marinakis before the window. Everyone knew they weren't going to let Elanga and MGW leave in the same window. Everyone knew Eze was basically an Arsenal player before the window and Palace just needed the replacement. We didnt have our ducks lined up this window - we are scrabbling around from unrealistic deal to unrealistic deal looking desperate with no real strategy as per usual. We are less than 2 weeks away from deadline day and we have no fit attacking midfielders, no Son replacement and short at CB if Frank wants to play a back 3 in big games. And for most of these deals it looks like we find ourselves at square one.
Net on wide forwards?? You're having a laugh. In what world is the current Son on the same level as Kudus?Danso? We have signed Kudus for the first team and lost Son. We have signed Paulinha on loan and frozen out Bissouma. While Paulinha is a much better fit for what we need in that position its been far from a positive window for me. We are NET wide forwards, forward in DM, weaker at CB (as Frank uses a back 3 on occasions) and massive step back at AM due to long term injury
And there was always talk they wouldn’t move until it had lapsed as they thought they could get a better dealThe release clause was for 1 upfront payment. We agreed a deal with multi year installments. Its why Arsenal waited to move too
Agents work for their clients. Working to favour any club would be in breach of their industry regulationsI'd also say that if this window doesn't make the club seriously consider the nature of relationship we have with CCA after being pretty much used as pawns to get one of their clients a new deal and force the hand of their other clients favoured destination then....well, i don't know...been utterly played by them this window.
We’re stronger at CB than we have been for yearsNet on wide forwards?? You're having a laugh. In what world is the current Son on the same level as Kudus?
We're not weaker at CB, we're the same.
The windows not over, AM will be addressed.
You have no clue that would have happened for sure . We offer release clause price scum could have still come in matched it and he could have still chose to go there .. fact is no one knows the facts bud ..
apparently we had agreed a fee last week pre clause ( again no one really knows) if havertz is now prompting scum to bid and agree a fee after 2 years of tracking and he wants to go there over us well that's life ... they clearly diddnt value him at his release fee before ...
I get it stings as he would have improved us we've no fcuking clue what's actually happened/happening really have we .
We've just won a trophy, in champions league , sacked manager and got a good one .. improved the team, played well against psg, beat the scum .. and going after some decent players for serious money ... will we/you us only be happy if absolutely everything goes our way ??? Because life and football don't work like that I'm afraid
Edit ... also signed long term deals for two decent talents including wcw captain who was off to athletico at start of the window (again if you believe click bait "journo itk tacos who are only in it for da monies"
Where's that coming from?One thing to throw in here is that we are amidst some serious boardroom restructuring and as such, I am sure the transfer work has been impacted. It is no secret that the Lewis family would rather have VV running the main show. I think perhaops this is the painful summer which leads to that being the case. I suspect they will not be happy with this latest thumb-twiddling, whatever the wider 'truths' might be about Frank's Spurs style...
They don’t have regulationsAgents work for their clients. Working to favour any club would be in breach of their industry regulations
pure comedy this board at times, grown men blaming people for something that hasn't happened yet, reported on by people that have no clue about what's gone on and are just there for clicks to feather their own pockets.
Terms of payment pluy add-ons. It is actually very clear. We did not act decisively enough because we believed the hype i.e. that we were in a 'one-horse-race' (c) Ornstein. Foolish. Again, the only silver lining is that perhaps Frank will get a player HE feels really suits what he wants to do.
