A few people see Dele as our new striker.
I don’t, I see a farcical excuse to not replace Llorente and Janssen...

100%, the vast majority of the time (one notable exception being Spain in the 2010 European Championships, which was when the expression was first used), "false 9" simply means you have a gaping hole in your squad and have to patch it as best you can, it isn't some cunning ruse to catch your opponent off guard.
 
No, £59 million (€70 million) is his cláusula de recisión, his buy out clause, of which 30% would go to another party. Image rights don't come into it.

Real Sociedad want €25 million, around £21 million at the current exchange rate. We're low-balling as per usual with an offer of £10 million. This is from the Basque press who have their finger very much on the pulse, not some self-harmer on Twitter sitting in soiled Y-fronts
I’m not saying that’s what I think the fee is, just what was quoted on this thread earlier.

You may know more about the Basque press, but I personally don’t believe them any more than the Twitter twats.
 
I can’t believe this isn’t done, and that Eriksen is still here and will travel today.
For the first time in a long time regarding windows, Levy is doing my fucking head in.

I don’t, I see a farcical excuse to not replace Llorente and Janssen, for just 21M.
Even with perspective that’s relative peanuts when we want about the same for KWP.

One week left, so I’m not going to judge the window yet, but we need to get busy.
Not sure how many poor performances it needs to show what’s lacking.
We saw the same shit regarding Ndombele and he is here now , we will sign another 2 players this window don’t panic :levyeyes:
 
I don’t get it when people claim they want our success to be done “the right way” and pretend that the club is morally righteous because we haven’t spent like city or Chelsea

Do you think Enic are 100 percent ethical and moral as a business ?
 
Do we think fans of Inter are calling their board all the bastards under the sun for not signing Eriksen yet? Or like us, are they blaming Levy for asking for too much money? What about the Bruges fans on Wanyama?

Are ManU fans somehow managing to blame Levy for not signing Fernandes yet? Or Chelsea fans for not signing Cavani?

It seems that some believe we are to blame whatever way a player is going. That there’s not a Levy-like in Spain bumping the price every ten minutes for our new striker.

As an investment company, I expect ENIC are balls deep in arms, overpriced pharma etc. Their hands are as grubby as everyone else’s.

And if we suddenly got bought over by a state, like city were, I’d celebrate like a madman if we won anything.

Well you should do, they are in daily contact with the club who use them to channel the information they want made public, just as the Liverpool Echo and Manchester Evening News do for clubs in those cities.

I dont just mean El Diario Vasco, who are the best connected in San Sebastián, the same is true of ABC Sevilla and Superdeporte in Valencia who were the best sources of info on the Lo Celso and Soldado deals, both of whom proved to be 100% reliable
 
Can people stop calling him Jose please, its annoying me more than it should. Jose is part of his first name, his surname is da Silva.

See also people who think the Spain coach's surname is Enrique, it isn't, it's Martínez. His first name is Luis Enrique.
Who we talking about here?
Willian, Willian Jose, Jose Mourinho


Levy has no chance of signing anyone with this much confusion.


He already signed Carvalho Fernandes

They seem to think it's a done deal.
