Well his knee was destroyed last season and Alonso is off to Barca. It’s not really baffling that they need him.

what's you point ? he has a budget but his main job is identifying players and persuading them to join, which it sounds like he did with Cucerella. If he's told the club won't pay more than a certain fee for him then it's out of his hands.What an absolute bollocks from him, then why the fuck we got Alvarez and Philips for lower price than selling club asked for?
People on here suggesting we'll be fine heading into the season with Cancelo and walker with JWE & Ake as back ups give your heads a fucking wobble.
Clearly forgot how intense it gets towards the back end of the season when competing on all fronts for various trophies.
Last season we played Atletico twice & Liverpool twice all in the space of 11 days and only just got by. We've lost zinchenko and MUST replace him.

Did he hand in a transfer request? I honestly don't remember.Didn't we kind of do that with Laporte and it ended really well since he doesn't want to leave anymore?
150m for Kane or 50m for Haaland, a total disaster that one!!Omar Berrada and Txiki together tbh
There’s definitely an issue with them thinking we can get players cheaper than the club are willing to sell for Koulibaly, Kane and Cucurella 3 summers on the bounce.
River Plates valuation was between 15-20m, so that wasn’t really “below”. 45m for Phillips from a relegation scrap club isn’t “underpaying” either in my book.What an absolute bollocks from him, then why the fuck we got Alvarez and Philips for lower price than selling club asked for?

Do you guys agree with this sentiment?
It’s a lazy statement thrown out there by our more entitled fans, who seem to think negotiation is nothing more than asking a selling club how much money they want - and then paying it immediately.
There are plenty of examples over the years of Txiki negotiating very good deals with no RC - Phillips this very summer would be a great example - or convincing clubs to accept less than the RC, of which Dias is a recent example.
The fact is he walks away from deals which fans have got themselves very invested in, and that causes frustration - so they lash out and claim he’s incapable of closing a deal.

I mean to respond the user your replying for, he implies that Txixi is suck at his job to get player at much cheaper price which is very wrong for him to judge Txixi like that.
One was a release clause, one wasn’t? This doesn’t come off as well as you thought.150m for Kane or 50m for Haaland, a total disaster that one!!
