Not a question of fee, a question of if we'd have done the move at all if Dragusin hadn't gotten hurt.But why wait this far into the window? He’s another one that’s been on the market all month?
How much less did we really end up paying?
Agreed. They should just open it for 7 days and get it all over and done with quick. Madness how nothing happens for 3 or 4 weeks and then everything gets done in the last 3 or 4 days. No chance of Daniel Levy flying to Munich on the 1st of Jan anyway lolSeems like that's when most deals get done these days, it's a game of posturing especially in Jan.
I swear they should condense the Jan window into one week, cut out all that unnecessary drama and BS.
Agreed Levy would love an MLS thing here - I heard Wrexham owners want to create a new kind of competition like the MLS (I WONDER WHY)Ohhhhh, the Capos, I see what you're saying.
That's pretty common in Germany and Eastern Europe I think, that's certainly not an American invention
On this I totally agree with you. Nobody tellMemphisWill
MLS is the Levy dream of revenue totally decoupled from ambition and success on the pitch.
It will need to break out of that muddle to continue to grow.
Hasn’t looked at the league table recently.
There was some talk over on SC that Lange had a few deals lined up but Levy pulled the plug. I suspect (reading between the lines) that he’d proposed paying fees for players that could be free in the summer. All guesswork on my part though so pinch of salt etc.We don't even need Lange at this point; just use other teams' scouting departments and hijack their bids.
Lens like a lot of French clubs have serious financial troubles since they spent the last few years without proper TV deals.He is a fucking powerhouse and actually has the speed to cover in Anges bullshit system. Great in the air, strong dueler. Passing is his weakness.
This is the only transfer I see as realistic to be completed. Im not sure why but I know Lens wanted to sell him or that he wanted to leave.
Kelly is going to Juve instead of him so lets get this done atleast
It is of course very fair to ask why we wouldn't do the deal on Jan 1 anyway.Not a question of fee, a question of if we'd have done the move at all if Dragusin hadn't gotten hurt.

Are you thinking of watching a game? I wouldn’t recommend it with a dodgy ticker, tbh. (Especially not the second half).
