At the rags you have Schweinsteiger, Darmian, probably Phil Jones all on good wages who the rags would like to move on. The fact is you can't risk moving a player on before you have a replacement. That is good management. If the selling club won't sell when you want them to there is the sum total of f*ck all you can really do.
The fact is, if Joe was so highly rated there would be a queue of clubs looking to take him and a week is plenty of time in football to sort out a move if buyers are there. The fact is that clubs clearly don't rate Joe Hart as highly as some of our fans do..
