Stanley, is this in reference to me and our last back and forth? This would indeed make make it not in good faith. You do understand that right? I made no claims that I cannot backup. In fact the only claim I made you supported in your first post to me.
And the irony is this playbook is right up BC's alley.
bargain. do it
OK, even according to that, and the figures we were talking about, it would equate to about 25m a year over ten years of the project. But that has been invested by THFC, using money generated by THFC, to build a stadium for THFC that is going to help THFC to generate much bigger revenues for THFC for the foreseeable future.
The building of the new stadium sees us more than double our match day revenue from something like 45m to 110m (approx) a year. So they've spent 25m a year the last ten years to generate 65m extra a year for the next 10-20 whatever...

So do you believe that the act of DL putting a high number on his head is the biggest reason he didn't move that summer?Ok, but that's whatbus-conductor and
Airfixx say about every one of their gotcha questions. No probs though, I'll play.
No, all I claim is that DL priced him too high. SeeRESPECT THE COCK 's post
Clubs first move is not a formal bid. They would know what price Levy wants by talking to intermediaries, etc. In that article it says 130M LAST SUMMER!!!!! I thought it was 80M which still would have been high. And the inference would be that no club wanted him at those prices...hense (h/t airfixx) the bolded part is correct and a restating of my claim of DL pricing him out of a move.
Placing an unrealistic number on a player IS pricing them out of a move. No bids need be made for that. If I offered you
Stanley, two days in a row you've had questions not directly pertaining to my point and both have been in service of a narrative. Neither has felt in good faith though you say this one is and I take you at your word. But when you ask me to provide info/support for claims I have not made it is not conversational but adversarial. I can play equally well in either sandbox.
All I'm trying to say is that whilst DL did put high number on his head, I believe that wasn't the reason he didn't move. He didn't move because no one ever made a formal & decent offer. You could say that the fact that DL put this price on his head halted any club from making any offer. And that this way DL scared of potential bidders without formally declining any offer.
It's not in reference to you Todd, you're ok
Of course, you weren't claiming Levy priced Eriksen out of a move, you were just claiming it had been claimed. In some tabloid. See what you did there. nice.
You can oil up with the best of us slippery people.
Tall fast and strong, good at intercepting play but not the best at actual tackling, has a good and creative range of passing but it was too risky this season hence Toulouse are relegated
This is the kind of stuff I'd expect to see more of if Ndombele was shifted to Inter.
The important thing here is the word "absolutely".

White Hart Lane was obsolete-you'll get no argument from me.
But this new stadium involves serious long-term pain. Money that could have been spent on the team has been diverted into infrastructure (which is why Levy is here in the first place). We began paying for the project roughly 10 years ago (thereby leaving ourselves short on the playing field ever since). Ahead of us, we have repayments of approximately £37m to make each year until 2042. That's a total of 32 or 33 years of pain.
David Hytner of the Guardian. The same guy who said Poch had the royal hump over the Jack Clarke deal.
Have you the Euro millions numbers...as you can see the future an all.
I stated taht DL priced him out of a move. From the article:
Perhaps that says something else to you.
This is pricing him out of a move. How do you not see this? Did I EVER make any claims about any offer being declined Stanley? You seem stuck on this point but I ask you to find any place where I've made that claim. That would be DL turning down offers not DL pricing him out of a move.
Good to know that it wasn't a question in good faith my man. And now you know why they were dealt with the way they were. Future 'good faith' questions will be as well.
edit: Stanley ignore that last line. It seems the previous stuff was not in reference to me. Unfortunately IIRC your reply was to BC whose post was about me so it all felt as if it was pointing to me.

Next to Hojbjerg in a midfield pair would work. Move Gio to the 10.
We are still a bit light in CM - Skipp on loan leaves us with 4 - Ndombele, GLC, Hojbjerg and Winks. Sissoko has played there but really shouldn't.
Makes more sense than all the winger links.
So use Hojberg to win possession back and this guy to distribute. Gotcha
That Toulouse team was absolutely woeful so I don’t think his passing that got them relegated. Interesting that his stats look a bit similar to Hojbjerg. Good at interceptions and turnovers, but quite a low passing percentage, both high 70s, and high percentage of forward passes into final 1/3, suggesting they have been asked to get the ball forward quickly by their coaches. Big difference is he can bring the ball forward with a dribble too.
If we sign Sangare means we are flogging Ndombele to me either that or the Winks to city rumours somehow are legit
