Ffs just give them the money. It's not like they need to sell him. The cost is amortised over 5 years anyway. Same with Bertrand.

Well Monday next week pre season starts. I imagine Pep wants to have fullbacks available so he can start working. I hope we will complete a number of signings this week.

Drag it out so hes not available for pre season bedding in the ba$*@!ds!

Fully agree. I would not be a big fan of Walker but if he is a major target we should get on with it and sign him up. As you correctly point out what difference is
5m or so going to make over the duration of a 5 year contract.

Fuck leavey and fuck spurs. Make a take it or leave it offer and move on. Good player not a great one. The usual piss take becauses hes English.

Why rush to pay him 80K for the next few weeks when that's a bill Spurs will have to foot?

No rush lads, chill the fuck out.

If you add 5m on all of 7 to 8 targets that's alot of money

Agreed, and that's surely why we are at least trying to negotiate/get the price down. There is I guess for example always the chance that a player hand in a transfer request and change the cards to our advantage. If not we can always choose to pay up.

Why not leave all our business to the last week in August if that is the case. I for one am totally chilled about Walker point is if he is going
to be a pivotal part of next seasons team better to get the deal done quickly.

It's not really if you look at it from an accounting perspective and factor in amortisation. I do agree that we do need to impose an upper limit
for the vast majority of targets. In the case of walker my outermost limit would be 40m plus 5m in add ons and not a penny more.

Or move on to another target

These are the serious issues we need to know. Not who we're buying and when.

Err... you do know that's not quite how the commas and apostrophes work, don't you?

Fact- Levi has been in contact with City over Walker. He is demanding £60m but City are understandably not prepared to meet his demands and so we have a stalemate with no club prepared to compromise.

Fact- City have made the arrangements for two players to be flown in this week for negotiations and formalities. One RB and one LB - doesn't take much to work out who these are! Deals won't be announced unti next week.
