John Stones

[BlueDeadHead]

No. That was an admittedly incredibly long winded way of saying the two aren't mutually exclusive. Where he does or doesn't go has no relevance to how close he is or isn't to signing.

Because he has an agent who has everything sorted. If he doesn't (say Koeman wants to meet face to face) then he would be a fucking idiot to say 'hold on everyone...going on holidays...schedule those meetings when I am back. If he goes on holiday...it is sorted, he has done everything he needs to do short of signing his name and having a medical.

 

[Centurions]

They`re back.

Even the ones who didn't really turn up in the first place.

At least if we do get Stones he'll be fresh, cheers Roy.

anything over 30 mil for this kid (even in todays prices) is a complete and utter rip off

Not when Saido Mane has just gone for £36 million. That alone has raised the bar further still and makes KDB look like a bosman and Sterling look like a bargain.

Bang £10m on for the home grown factor,and another £5m for the City price factor and your about right,IMO.

if we're going to pay crazy money for stones then i hope we pay it good and early. raising the market for rival clubs. at least if we all pay over the odds, then none of us are paying over the odds.

I hope we do this Stones deal fast, anymore ludicrous deals like the Mane one then the price will probably increase even more.

Any player can be signed and sealed before July 1st, they just can't be registered to play until then.

Well wrapped up to me, is done and dusted. Which includes registration.
