You get to a point in a negotiation where you know if the buyer/seller is serious about the valuation they place on the item. At this point you make your decision as to how firm you want to make your stand and capitulate or move on. Once that point has been reached the parties can test each others resolve but that doesn't take too long unless one of the parties has their own reasons to delay an agreement.

To be fair we have no idea what is being negotiated. It is not necessarily the transfer fee that is the problem.

Monaco have asked FIFA to take action after accusing "important European clubs" of tapping up Kylian Mbappe.


Sky sources say Monaco's complaint concerns the conduct of Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain but not Arsenal, who are also confirmed admirers of the teenage striker.




So will this affect the Mendy deal?

Sky are more than happy to run this non-story, although they felt the need to say "but not Aresnal"? A bit weird really, unless they have an agenda, or Murdoch has a personal issue with our Middle Eastern friends?
 
I think we will get him. But i'm a little wary of Chelsea. They were prepared to spend 60m+ on Sandro. I'm sure the fee is not a problem for them.

I'd be pissed if we got Walker and Danilo and missed out on Mendy. Mendy right now is the most important signing we could make. Simply because we don't have anyone in his position yet.

Once we have him. We only need to add depth.
 
All I'm saying is that it's clear (if you've been following the Mendy saga closely since Bernardo signed) that not agreeing to a fee earlier in the summer has led to Monaco raising their fee, multiple times.

How do u know Monaco would have accepted a lower earlier offer or that we didn't make offers earlier in the window?? Don't listen to what the media say or rumours wait for city.
 
MCFC need to stop faffing around and get Mendy..or CFC will get him... noone is complaining about CFC paying 70m!!! for Morata or United 75 for Lukaku.. Mendy is as important to MCFC as those 2 are for their clubs. Txiki needs to stopping faffing around and get this done...sell of the dross - Mangala, Bony, etc to fund Mendy
 
I don't know how a transfer works and I don't have to know how a transfer works. I don't play football manager games and I don't set out to become a DoF someday. I'm a fan and I'm interested in results. We were told that Pep wants Mendy. Our team is in preseason and we still have no LBs. We lost Alves to another club while we were takin our time. And now we hear Chelsea might be interested in Mendy while Txiki hasn't made any visible progress.

Is this enough for a fan to be worried?

I don't care to know how transfer negotiations work mate, that's not my job. If insulting me makes you feel better and more in the know about the intricacies of how transfer dealings work, fine.

But that doesn't make me feel any better and I see many others are just as concerned as I am.

When did I tell you not to be worried or concerned?

Actually, I'm fairly certain we lost Alves because he recently got married and his wife, who works in Paris, would rather live in Paris than Manchester. Oh, and they are paying him double what we would have at about £250,000 a week. It's a fairly obvious choice to make, and one I think any of us would have had we been in the same position. We will get Mendy done, it will take time, but he will get done. We want the player, the player only wants us, now a fee must be agreed upon.

Only way we dont get him is if Mendy changes his mind like alves did
