Summer 2018 transfer window

[FightingIllini]

Sebastian Bassong

There's a name I haven't heard in a long while.

 

[OffTheBench]

To be fair, Toby is on extremely low wages relative to the PL. 50k is less than backup players make for the rest of the top 6.

To be fair he was offered a fat pay rise, ages ago.

 

[Totti]

There's a name I haven't heard in a long while.

Why? Is he suspended?

 

[Macch]

Of course its legal -
1) the benefit to the player is one more year of earnings.
2) all contracts with club having an option would be unenforceable - all Levys 3+2 - Martials options etc.
3) if this was an issue pretty sure that Toby's agent would have been shouting it out for the past year rather than a dodgy Belgian journo.

I agree... mostly.

As much as he comes off as a prick most times, Kristof is by far the best Belgium source out there.

 

[RealCoolYid]

When he scores and the team hug him .......

Union Jack

 

[Tottenham Sean]

Union Jack

Or when he's picked up his 3rd long term injury of the season...Jack Wilshere

 

[Totti]

Heard we need to up our home grown quota so I do hope we can finalise the deal for Grealish.

Otherwise it's Jack to the drawing board.

Let's not afflict him with such a curse

He's already got bad Barnet Fair!

 

[benjomess]

If he lets his personal hygiene slip while carrying a throat infection, he's BO Jack hoarse man.


I know and I don't care.

 

[Jurgen's Binnman]

To be fair, Toby is on extremely low wages relative to the PL. 50k is less than backup players make for the rest of the top 6.

But he’s been offered more than double that, and turned it down.

 

[Bill Madrid]

When he misses a couple of sitters on his debut and generally sissokos about in midfield -

Jack Shit

 

[hiatus]

I haven't been honest with y'all - I am actually the guy that runs the medicals for incoming transfers.

Been a slow season, but finally had old Jacky boy on my table yesterday.

I hate to say it, but after getting a closer look at that hair, Levy's backing out, so no new signings this week.

Might as well get his Spurs medical while he’s at the hospital

Jack the ripper if he is ever accused of a string of homicides..

 

[For better or worse]

so don't agree to it in the first place. Nobody has a crystal ball... perhaps the bubble could have burst and we would be stuck paying his high wages. He might have got an injury or dropped in form so not really worth 50k p/w, we would still have paid it. If no club wanted to take him off our hands we would be stuck like City and Ade. It's the way it goes...

He can get it done at the same time as Grealish, Ndombele & Leandro Damiao

I never said it was unfair.

But people are emotional and if they see their team mates making literally 4x their salary, they'll naturally become discontent/jealous. But I do agree he should have agreed to 120k/w, which was more than fair imho.
