Finney Is Back
Luka Modric
Raises an interesting point - Rose, Alderweireld, Dembele (others?) thinking they were ripe for a big pay day, and a few months later - how likely does it look now?
Im not saying they should have blindly just signed deals with us, or taken whatever offers they had - rather just observing that holding out that extra bit can backfire.
Alderweireld was demanding (allegedly) £180k a week from us, then moved the goal posts. Doesnt look much like a £180k player at the minute, does he? Yes, Im sure Man Utd or alike might stretch to it out of desperation for a defender, but is much less certain.
Dembele had demands beyond Inter and China, do you think theyll be back in for him now?
I think Dembele will get a big money 2 or 3 year contract when leaving on a bosman at the end of this season.
