Why is Roma selling?
Same reasons with all Italians clubs no lira

AS Roma has been facing significant financial challenges, including substantial losses and high debt levels. The club is currently under scrutiny from UEFA due to its failure to break even and has entered into a settlement agreement with financial constraints until the 2026/27 season. This has led to a need for financial restructuring and a focus on cost control and potential player sales
 

If Bayern lack other options here, and it sure seems like they do, a loan is a much better idea than a purchase with Palhinha.

As a club to have in the bag that's different from our other players and offers Frank a way to have a very clear, experienced, specific sort of player as he implements his ideas, while also adding depth for our CL gauntlet all makes really good sense to me.

It's the paying a big fee for a 30 year old part that I can't wrap my head around.
 
Looks like Sesko to United is agreed!

I thought they were up against from a PSR perspective or have they done some chav style restructuring and sold the hot dog stand to themselves for £1bn?!
And some think Newcastle have replaced us, if you think we’re having a shite window ( don’t get me wrong, we definitely are ) then they are having a window like King Kongs first dump of the day - everytime they go for a player someone nicks them and their best players head has been turned like the girl in the exorcist
 
Apart from Palinha (which will be a loan option after we sell Bissouma, so probably 2/3 weeks away), are we stringly linked with anyone else? It all feels so cold. We lost 14 days waiting for MGW and came out the other side with no alternatives.

This narrative that Lange works in silence and that the media don't know anything is running out of steam. I think the reality is Lange plays up to this narrative so he can get away with doing nothing!

I do not have a high opinion of Levy or Lange’s transfer operation but one thing I know they will not do is sanction big money for a 30 year old midfielder.
 
Not involved enough that he has to be camped out at Hotspur Way like a gatekeeper.

Which is ironic, because the same people complaining he does that are the same people baffled that he is isn't. Almost like it's not a real thing
So, didn't actually address my first post in your original reply, then offer up an option C to your own A/B choice in your follow up.

I can see engaging with you and expecting a straight answer is wishful thinking.

The sad truth is we probably have swung and missed on multiple players during that time.
 

One of those 2 goals was against us.
