So you're saying whenever it's right it's Paratici, but when it's wrong it's always Levy?
I am saying I am pretty convinced personally that if we dust for fingerprints on the Porro deal then send to Interpol this photo will pop up

That’s what has been said by ENIC supporters That it wasn’t an injection from Lewis but a 1.9% increase of ownership generating £150m

Either way it’s £150m of which £100m has been spent

No, that is what was said in public communication.

Once again, if it would have been 1,9% increase in ownership, then club wouldn't have received 150 mil. Previous owner would. Right now, if you own 10 Tesla shares and I purchase them from you, then Tesla gets 0,0 €/£/$. You would get 10x current market price and I would pay that to you.

So it is not "either way it is 150 mil". It is difference between 0 and 150 mil.
 
Of course they would

My guess Levy pissed them off over the last 3 weeks nickel and dimeing, they decided vengeance is a dish best served piping hot

Could you imagine selling your house to Levy, you would sooner burn it to the ground in the end

Oh yeeeeeeee.
That will show the player! He will get such vengance with staying on 3x lower salary.
And on top of that - it will show his current club! He'll never ever demand such kind of fee in the future, and will go for less, but heck how they got this supersweet revenge.

End of sarcasm.
Some people here just make my brain hurt...
 
Just take a moment. Think about everything you’ve seen our defence do this past six months. The abject horror of it all. The moral squalor. Degradation.

And now consider that our January window might only involve a loan deal for Danjuma.

I agree that this window has been a fuckup.
In well-run and operated club, areas that need significant reinforcement would have been identified months before the window. Or by the start of WC at very LATEST.

Targets should have been lined up, best option picked and contact made well before the window opened.
That is pretty simple and straightforward.
---------------

BUT acting like club would be cheap at this point not to write a blank check is utterly fucking stupid.
Porro was sold for 8,5 mil EUR 8 months ago. Transfermarkt prices him at 25 mil.

He plays a niche position that has no proper place in majority of the teams.
For that position, if figures are correct (48 mil agreed; now demanding for 51?) - it would make him 7th most expensive fullback in the history of the game.
FFS we were massively overpaying as it was before, and funds should have been used elsewhere (CB; CM). He is worth maybe half of that 51 mil, but some extremely desperate folks try to make it look like we are being cheap? Unreal...
