trooper 940 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Stuart Webber on NUFC's Jacob Murphy pursuit Norwich City held the fan forum last night, with manager Daniel Farke and sporting director Stuart Webber answering questions. And when the subject of Murphy was brought up Webber is said to have quipped: “You’ve been reading the Newcastle Chronicle, haven’t you!?” He then also reiterated to supporters that if Norwich sold Murphy to Newcastle, it would be on Norwich’s terms not Newcastle’s. Given he recently signed a new four-year deal it seems that it pay-up for Newcastle if they want Murphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 It's almost like they are trying to completely ignore the prices of players now. The whole market has changed from what everyone thought it would be in the space of 2 month. They seem so fixated on getting players for a set amount instead of realising what is going on in football. Players prices have dramatically risen. We all thought Sigurdsson was a 20m player, he's now 50m. Everyone thought Pickford was a 10-15 million player, he's not he's a 30 million player now.

Ashley could loan the club some of the £300m or so he's saved since reneging on his promise to gift the club £30m though. If we're being fair with him.

Nah Ray this is Ashley's stubborness at work sticking at £10 million take it or leave it. Norwich dont need to sell but we NEED to buy we still need another 3/4 players. Then we need to ship about 10 out before the season properly starts as we're only allowed to name a 25 man first team squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5175 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Aye but it's notable that the TV deal started last year, and yet it's only one year in that clubs are spending the big money. We're a season behind the others. Might be hugely simplistic, but if borrowing against the future was a sensible option, surely everyone would have been doing it last summer. That said, I can't quite remember last summer - maybe the spending was big? Feels more significant this year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 4177 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Norwich are struggling a bit financially if I remember right? Let a load of their big earners leave for nowt etc. Their chairman is blowing smoke up the supporters arses, the only reason this doesn't go through is if someone outbids us.

David Kelly 1220 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 It's not remotely daft for the club to trying to get the best deal they can so that they have more available for future deals. It's daft though if it prevents us from getting deals done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6986 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I'm not sure that NUFC should subscribe to the theory that because Walker and Sigurddson are going for £50mil we should start bidding well over market value too Theres 5 or 6 clubs gone daft with money, the rest have hardly spent a penny. Will Hughes went for £8mil, Wilshere is apparentlt available for £9mil and Gibbs for £8mil. I've got a feeling in the next couple of weeks the prices will drop down to more sensible prices again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will come as a shock to Charnley and Co just how much the market has changed in 12 months or so. It's batshit mental now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
