Just fucking sign!!!!! Lol ;-)

I swear we have been just triggering shit for 2 weeks now.

 

[zeven]

Is he superior to Stones and that guy who just signed for the united?

 

[Don Karleone]

 

[blueinsa]

Then it is because these boys are normally pretty good with info.

Excellent news.

 

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Hope the Blue Moon Rising boys are right!

Would be a cracking signing!

 

[kaz7]

Everybody knows Bilbao are difficult to deal with, remember United's saga with Herrera? Between who gets the money for tax purposes, how Bilbao announces it and then finding a Basque replacement drags everything x 100. What I have noticed is that Bilbao are releasing a lot of players, players are signing new deals and players are getting promoted within their system but they have announced whether or not Laporte has signed a new deal to up his release clause. I think that works in our favor and it's pretty much done.

Yep, Bilbao are fussy little biscuits.

Imminent eh. I can't see an imminent announcement coming.

 

[Dax777]

Misread that as Atletico Madrid far too tired, going to bed :)

Good thing you are not a stats guy, eh? (:

 

[adrianr]

Imminent eh. I can't see an imminent announcement coming.

Are we set to trigger the release clause by any chance?

 

[bobmcfc]

Is it done ?

 

[kaz7]

Is it done ?

Not yet lovely

"Imminent"

I remember when Sterling was "imminent", same as De Bruyne. Looks like Laporte will be signed by Christmas then.

 

[domalino]

Yep, Bilbao are fussy little biscuits.

Understandable given their circumstances.

Holding on to a fantastic basque player is often much more useful than getting a big cheque - if there's no basque CBs better than Laporte it doesn't matter if they get €100m for him, their team will suffer.

Their survival relies on being bastards to deal with.

[Don Karleone]

Had to nip out.

So I'm guessing "imminent" means sometime this month then?
