NJS 4557 Posted January 22, 2024 Share Posted January 22, 2024 Also if we're doing business with Milan we should recalibrate the zero starting point to 55 fucking million. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 14623 Posted January 22, 2024 Share Posted January 22, 2024 Can see why we are considering selling these players considering they’re the older ones and we’ll probably not get this sort of money for them again. If this is what Ashworth and Howe think will take us further, then so be it. No time for sentiment 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14078 Posted January 22, 2024 Share Posted January 22, 2024 If we can get a winger with two legs as a replacement call it good business. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which Miggy does 🤷🏻♂️…. after a fashion Interesting that in this little exchange that an upgrade would appear to be the very best practitioners of wing craft in recent times.

Almiron's main weakness was he was incapable of putting a cross in on his right foot once he had beaten his man because eddie plays with inverted wingers. the focus is on ball-retention, recycling, using the overlapping full back for crosses ideally your inverted winger would have a stronger weak foot than miggy mind!

aimaad22 4655 Posted January 22, 2024 Share Posted January 22, 2024 Well finally a rumour one can get behind. 30M fee would mean a nice little 100M+ injection into the transfer kitty. Al Shabab is not one of the PIF owned clubs so less scrutiny on the price too. Maybe we can squeeze out another 5-10M in added fees? Ship Wilson off for 20M off and that's a great window before we've managed to get anyone in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sold Wilson and Isak got injured we’d be in relegation trouble. In fact, if bruno got injured and we have no replacements we’d likely be in bother as well.
