Deal agreed with Bayern Munich for Leroy Sane - €60m (including add-ons)

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Good fee considering everything.

When do we get awarded the net-spend trophy?

 

[kaz7]

Not like we let Sancho, Boateng, Tevez, and plenty of more players walk for practically nothing to rival big clubs. Even players who see as surplus we cant get a decent price for them. Other teams manage it miles better than us.

Is that your only examples? Carlito was treated the same as everyone who contributed to our developement,sancho was a badly behaved seventeen yr old,i can't remember boating deal,you might not like it but we run out club very differently,you contribute to development and trophies and we avoid a fuss at the end,respect is everything to the way the club is run,i much prefer that to a bigger wrangle and bad feelings at the end

Milner to dippers ,who else to a big rival ?

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

You mean watch us spend that 50m on Ake? De Laurentiis is a shrewd businessman, he gets what he demands.

Are you and racecar a couple ?

 

[Kokonut1307]

We moved on average players like Mooy, Kelechi and others for very decent money we will probably move Harrison on to Leeds if they get promoted for well over 10 million, none of those players cost much at all, we recovered our money on Boateng, Ed and Carlito were errors but the contracts were also part of the problem then which is something that’s been rectified.

Then why are we still failing it with the higher profile players. Even the deadwood failed signing we are unable to move on for anything decent. I don’t see we rectified anything if we lost Sancho and now Sane for ridiculously low prices.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

£60m is a great fee in the circumstances.

“in the circumstances” being the key bit there.

If Sancho goes for 75 mil plus, we need to coldly assess our football operations people because we have watched money go in the bin here.

 

[moomba]

Disappointing, but it was on the cards for a while. We'll move on, and hopefully get someone better.

 

[pudge]

Not like we just got dethroned by one of those teams that managed to sell Coutinho for +105m

You mean that player who had four years left on his contract but demanded to leave?

Do you think if Kev asked to leave tomorrow that we'd accept a fiver for him?

Chance for three trophies this season, without Sane. How awful it is to be dethroned.

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

When’s the last time we sold a player for a profit?

 

[Kokonut1307]

Fucking idiots more like.

The well articulated use of aimless insults. The mark of a person who is excellent at having an intellectual discussion on the clubs proceedings.

 

[kaz7]

It's very impressive how we got £70m.


(No offence TH but it seems the fee is going up every 5 minutes)

He means euro's

 

[discopop]

Say again?

what’s hard to understand I was explaining that the club don’t always get rinsed

 

[Tugay One Cup]

He's played his part in winning 7 trophies since he joined.

I'm not going to be bitter about him leaving, partly because he's never struck me as a player who would stick with us for a long time. But it's been a privilege to watch him play for us. Cracking player.

Why do you think that is. Do you think we employ idiots? Or do you think we employ people that are among the best in the game that get the best deal possible for the club?

not sure what more the club could have done. When he wouldn’t sign a contract last season we were prepared to sell him if the price was right. Then he got injured and missed a year, by which time he was six months away from leaving for free and we had to lower our price

 

[Cotswold Knight]

Good luck to him, never forget his winner against the bindippers which in the end cost them the league
Sad to see him go as he will no doubt become a world beater

 

[Nellies left peg]

Disappointing, but it was on the cards for a while. We'll move on, and hopefully get someone better.

It sticks in my throat to sell him to those Bayern twats but he definitely sulks and goes missing at times whilst sometimes being unplayable. A good fee under the circumstances I suppose

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

Good luck to him - 60 M is a good price considering the circumstances.

Sancho also refused to sign a new contract

 

[Decepticon]

So where are the moaners now

55m is good business.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Straight out then. Lethal.

Arse....door.
