Surely Watford overrides August they make Norwich look good

Yet they have 3 more points. They’ve also beaten a huge club in Villa. They’re on the rise, according to their deluded fans.

Norwich will be comfortably bottom of the table come May.

He's quoting "stupid money" because that's how you negotiate: you start high and come down. He doesn't need to sell before the window shuts so let's see how he feels, given the facts above, when we reach the last couple of days of the transfer window.

I really, really hope we don't take it that close to the window.

What? Many here think deal has been secretly agreed. Not saying they are right or wrong but that's their opinion

I think we will find out by Thursday either way. I had been assuming that City would walk away this week in frustration but if Spurs start signing players then it suggests the Kane deal may be happening. It is possible that the leaked stories may be a smokescreen agreed by City and Spurs to give Spurs the chance to make deals before other clubs knew they had a bank full of cash from selling Kane. I just don't believe that City have ever offered £75m plus add-ons. That just sounds like a fabrication to me but it suits City and Spurs to leave it out there. I am only speculating about Thursday but I don't believe either club or Kane will want to push the saga into next week.

It doesn't matter if we do, as long as we get him. Running down the clock is another standard negotiation tool, one that's being used by both parties here. Neither need to do the deal before then so I strongly suspect that's what will happen.

No. I asked purely out of interest. On another note, why do you care what I do & don't care about? :-|

Why do you care if I care what you care about?

Can only see it getting done by us paying what they want or very very close to it

Would have been nice to watch him against Arsenal before his inevitable ankle injury he picks up on international duty....

Takes the absolute piss to have more frigging internationals so soon after the start of the season. It's always pissed me off !

Agreed. It's only in mid-November when I think the season really gets going.

Patience is often rewarded.
