Alright, so let's ignore all the transfer news about Leipzig having a fixed salling fee. Let's ignore all the transfers above 60m from all the other clubs that happened in the first 2-3 weeks of the transfer market.Pray to God you've never been involved in general business negotiations.
How do you know that exactly?Zero reading comprehension... you can only negotiate when yoy have negotiation power. Leipzig have already sold two big players (Szolozbai and Nkunku) and they qualified for the UCL, so they don't need the money. Then, Gvardiol has a long term contract and a release clause that is pretty high that activates next summer.
Conclusion: Leipzig holds all the power in this negotiation, so yes, trying to negotiate in THIS case is pointless. Either pay on their terms or walk away.
We could always bring in John Murtough.I said surplus with all the wage spending accounted for. we are swimming in cash surplus. if our board cannot get Gvardiol then the entire board should resign in shame. we are at the pinnacle of football with a treble and we are getting pushed around by nobodies like arsenal and RB leipzig. if they cannot do their jobs and act like a big club then fukin resign.
You realy are getting bent out of shape about this. I suspect no one on here gives a flying fuck what other clubs have or have not done this window.Alright, so let's ignore all the transfer news about Leipzig having a fixed salling fee.

What do you need to criticize the club for taking 2 months in this negotiation?
Theres lots of things that take time, it might take a while to learn peps tactics. I think the decision to meet the fee is done hence why we havent walked away from the table. The negotiating that still happens relates to payment structure and such. It can take a while there will be discussion over every minute detail in a contract, also things such as replacements can hold a deal up ect.It's an exageration. What I meant is the fee is non-negotiable, so either you pay it or not, and that decision should be quick. Payment structures, bonuses take time, but we have heard rumors even before the transfer market started.
It doesn't take 2 months, and again Leipzig have all the cards, so this is not a negotiation. Either you agree to their terms and do it or you go a look for someone else. Especially when Pep's tactics take time to learn! As I said, this is just plain stupid.
Because they have sold two of their main players for 140m (one via release clause so they have all that money right now) and because they are in the UCL.How do you know that exactly?
Any chance you could fuck off until after the window has shut?I said surplus with all the wage spending accounted for. we are swimming in cash surplus. if our board cannot get Gvardiol then the entire board should resign in shame. we are at the pinnacle of football with a treble and we are getting pushed around by nobodies like arsenal and RB leipzig. if they cannot do their jobs and act like a big club then fukin resign.
It doesn’t matter really, there is no great rush. Doubt he’d go to Japan now so may as well be with Leipzig until we come back. If he isn’t ready to start the season again doesn’t matter we have the same defence we had last year can start the season.It's an exageration.

No impact lol cmon. You think City are weighing up a world record bid for a player who would have no impact?All over a centre back we would be absolutely fine without if it does not happen btw. It would have no impact on our title challenge.
That doesn't answer the question. That is simply your supposition. What is their current on the books debt, you must surely know?Because they have sold two of their main players for 140m (one via release clause so they have all that money right now) and because they are in the UCL.
No one with any sense anyway, although there are one or two twisting their knickers over it.You realy are getting bent out of shape about this. I suspect no one on here gives a flying fuck what other clubs have or have not done this window.
If we get our man, I don't care how long it takes to negotiate, nor should anyone esle
And when it has shut, fuck off again :)Any chance you could fuck off until after the window has shut?
How do you know that exactly?
That is a supposition based on logic, transfer news and Leipzig's behavior. Based on your comment then let's close the transfer forum until there is a signing.That doesn't answer the question. That is simply your supposition. What is their current on the books debt, you must surely know?
In 12 months there will be another 100m centre back on the market everyone’s salivating over, just the nature of market. We should be getting this done now, in all honesty, but I honestly wouldn’t be gutted at all. We can easily manage a season without him.No impact lol cmon. You think City are weighing up a world record bid for a player who would have no impact?
…..what? Yeah it could mean this or that or it could mean literally what he said. That’s usually the simplest answer. Not even here to argue semantics (this isn’t semantics, it’s very straight forward).Hardly going to say, yes we need to get some money in before the window shuts or we’re in trouble is he. Maybe they do maybe they don’t.
The debt would be with Red Bull and they would probably write it off like they did a few years agoThat doesn't answer the question. That is simply your supposition. What is their current on the books debt, you must surely know?
So like me you don’t know. That’s sorted then.…..what? Yeah it could mean this or that or it could mean literally what he said. That’s usually the simplest answer. Not even here to argue semantics (this isn’t semantics, it’s very straight forward).
And the next few years after thatAny chance you could fuck off until after the window has shut?
