Cristian Romero’s suitcase is too full to fit a copy of an English dictionary. He has called Levy to upgrade his flight to Economy plus so he’s allowed to bring hand luggage.
His transfer is now a mere half a step away from finalisation.
Who needs Sky Sports when we have me?
........and closer.
while I’d agree that Liverpool are a bigger club, I don’t think that’s the reason they’ve had better recent success. They sold their star for big money and then made excellent use with the money. They also signed good players who fit their style and turned them into elite players. Being a bigger club isn’t a reason they have TAA, Robertson, Mane, Salah, Firmino, had Wiljnaldum, etc. They just had a better coach and made better signings. They are a good example of not valueing your star above the whole team and constructing a team that really fits with your identity. I’d love to keep Kane but holding on too long and not moving our players a year early rather than a year late is what got us into this mess.
1. We didn't tap up Romero
2. We contacted the club, were allowed to speak to Romero and worked out personal terms.
3. We made an offer, thereby opening up negotiations.
4. We've eventually reached an agreement, allegedly, that Atalanta are happy with.
Apart from them, no difference whatsoever.
Euros?
That’s about 136 mill English pounds. No discounts here
I trust Paratici about as far as I can throw him at this point, even if there are encouraging signs.
But I trust him far more than Levy when it comes to footballing matters. So let’s hope for the best.
Yeah. In the sense that at least it’s not Hitchen and levy.
Coutinho was a very good player for Pool. Not sure if he was their best. He did not have the standing in the team that Kane has with us. They sold him because they got an absolutely ridiculous bid from Barca. It was akin to us getting 200m plus offer from City...and we would sell as well.
He has been crap for Barca, loaned out to Bayern, can’t get a game.
We all know that if Kane goes to city he will be a success, unless his ankles collapse.
You’re being a bit naive if you think we didn’t tap him up.. everybody does it. We speak to the agent to see if he would come and what sort of wages we would offer. If the player turns round and says..no I want go to Spain , never going to PL...saves a lot of messing about
They will just about go back into the club.
Another year of shuffling the pack and hoping for lucky win. We never add to the pack.
How can this be news at all?
Oh, a player is ready to fly out to join his club once a deal is completed. That's why a player signs for another club in the first place, and thousands of players do that every year.
True, he could take the train, or car or bus or boat or horse (or any other means of transport I did not include) - but I doubt that's the point the reporting is trying to make.

Maybe.
The fact remains that the actual evidence we have is that we've conducted ourselves professionally in the transfer, as has Romero.
City and Kane on the other hand ...
Agree for the most part, but in the case of some players don't forget Pool also offered much better salaries than us.
That's cause we don't reinvest well. I'm hoping with Paratici we'll do much better this time around.
Hey folks, I've got some hot one-time only ITK about the Romero transfer.
It's done. To be announced in the next four days. Don't ask me how I know this; if I shared too much info it could burn my friend, etc.
Positive ratings expected/demanded. If there are any negative ratings then I won't ever give you hot ITK ever again.

No.
Levy is staying firm on the price and not letting himself get bullied by Kane/Charlie/City
Another ITK from SC. At first, I thought he was a "1tier" ITK but he's a "5 tier".
I still believe that Kound joining Spurs is almost impossible since Chelski is known to meet the asking price if they're after a player.
However, I hope this is not another Chelski trick: pretending Spurs have a chance to sign a player, let it drag on, on for them to pounce and sign Kounde with little time left in the transfer window to find another quality CB. Just speculation but we know Chelski is capable of such antics.
