Can we change the thread title again please, nothing agreed.

 

[not my fault!]

I suspect Brighton are either trying to cause a bidding war or call City’s bluff.

#Breaking news#

Barcelona have agreed to pay £72million for cucurella

 

[not my fault!]

What I don't get in this is why we spent weeks talking to the player, his agent and Brighton if we weren't willing to pay close to what they wanted? Like me spending hours agreeing the colour of the Porsche and whether the car mats were included and then taking over when the dealer mentions the list price.

Is he worth £52.5m? No idea, I'll tell you in a couple of years, but what's the point of being so far away in valuation in a negotiation?

Because they hinted at a £35m valuation early on then when we bid that they upped it to £50m, then the last 48hrs that’s become over £50m. They are trying it on, a bunch of chancers nothing more.

Only if you promise to shorten your user name to C Gull.

And if you want to post in the Off Topic area, I would recommend an alternative handle such as Steven C Gull if you plan to post with a bit of attitude.
