It is their prerogative. They could have identified targets, and put deals in place, but instead they adopt a sitting duck strategy of setting a price for their players. They might extract huge fees, but I don't think from a footballing point of view it was the best strategy, seeing as they are not sure of a few millions themselves. What do they do if City do decide to pay up? Celebrate the £50m, or worry that they have no defence left.Some act like we have a divine right to sign a player. If the selling club want to play hard to maximise their fee, that's their perogitive.

I think this one will happen, just frustrating for all concerned when it drags on. It's in everyone's interest to get this done before the start of the season and hopefully it will be.
I suspect a compromise will be reached regarding add ons, that will eventually see the fee meet Everton's valuation.

Our players get ripped to shreds like Mangala and Sterling. Chelsea use the transfer mkt as a way of making money. Each season they make big signings, but are also able to sell players, whereas City are rarely able to do so. There have been some exceptions eg Rodwell.Wish we'd do a little bit more of it to be honest.

Everton wanted Hart - I'd have done that deal - £40m they were willing to pay.
Whether Hart would have gone for it...

Yeah I kind of agree, but if hart says he doesn't want to go there that leaves hart uncertain of his future knowing Pep would of agreed to it.
It'd be decent business that. Let them have Bony for £25m and Mangala for £20m then if they get the £75m for Lukaku they've covered both outgoings and got a top keeper thrown in for good measure.Everton wanted Hart - I'd have done that deal - £40m they were willing to pay.

Well then we wouldn't have a recognised top level keeper and Hart would clearly not leave us to go to Everton unless he was told he would be No2 no matter what and eeeeeeeeeeeven then I cant imagine he wouldn't go to EvertonEverton wanted Hart - I'd have done that deal - £40m they were willing to pay.

Also that would mean the club value him at £10 million which is probably about half of what they could actually get for him
Other than that though its a terrible idea
So the club said no?Everton wanted Hart - I'd have done that deal - £40m they were willing to pay.

But Pep wants rid of Joe according to here?
It's a bit disingenuous saying "according to here"So the club said no?

There's been links throughout the Summer in regards to goalkeepers and they don't seem to be going away. Wherever you choose to believe the validity of the links is one thing but making out we're just taking it upon ourselves to say Pep wants someone new is another.
