It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

I'm not looking at it from WH's position, but from City's.

There's still rumours circulating we've not ruled out a move for Paqueta who evidently wants City.

It's just an offer I'd make, where WHU might think they won't get him back until March anyway, & they've got Philips until May, so why not move a potential deal forward?

Are you being serious here
We are not going to take on the wages of a player who is
1. Injured until March
2, Staring at a long ban for betting

I’d expect if the release clause is £85m we have already boxed it off with him subject to being cleared of charges

Expect rags to now have him at the top of their list
Let’s hope he like European football

Interesting tit bit

West Ham saving the transfer window for Sky atm. Never known so much attention for a loan and a young kid!

2 goals and 4 assists in 25 apps (averaging 45mins per game, though) for them. Not cutting it for Ajax, IMO, which is why they are loaning him out to the more familiar PL. Just a guess, though.

Still a kid, probably think PL teams are gripped by the ‘Palmer effect’

He never played in the PL so I'm not sure any 'familiarity' is going to help him. Be interesting to see how much game time he gets.
