When, in our most recent history, following the same philosophy on having a ceiling on value, have we been proved wrong?Don’t think it’s about a leak but I think we are £10-15million away from where we need to be and red bull will not budge and we will not up our bid . The Croat will go to liverpool next season if we don’t up our bid which I can’t see us doing . I’m normally ok with our transfer dealings and have faith in the system but if this deal falls through over £10-15 million then that’s a fuck up .i know it sounds crazy but I do think we are that focused on ffp that we are that bothered about paying big fees because of what media reaction will be .
I did think we are the luckiest outfit in modern times on this score; however it simply can’t be, missing the odd couple are anomalies but we are fast approaching double figures now; the common denominator is Pep turns most of those we bailed on into completely different outcomes, players now should be wise to it as under his stewardship, they invariably excel… the players now make these deals and I for one applaud our stance!
