If Fernandes signs for the Rags , then he is going for one reason , his bank balance because if he has watched them in the last couple of months he knows he isnt winning a cardboard cup for at least the next three seasons . Cavani has apparently turned down a £10m a year contract at the Swamp and his injury record is on a par with John Stones.
The times when a player wanted to play for the Rag shirt/badge are long gone , Woody has to pay a minimum £25-30m over the odds and offer them a salary equivalent to debt of the Greek government.
