I'm not sure they are. Their promotion hopes don't hinder on whether or not Maddison stays.
Or maybe not a single person thinks that
Mount and Maddison are different, Maddison and Bruno are too similar, they basically need to upgrade on Eriksen/Fred.
Mount is more of an 8 than a 10 IMO. Gets overhated because he’s perceived to be in direct competition with the likes of Maddison and Grealish.
I like his energy and versatility (and that’s why coaches LOVE him) but he’s not a consistent creator.
The hype is building perfectly for Tapsoba to be this window’s Bastoni/Skriniar/Dybala/Lautaro Martínez type.
There will be some completely valid, fully understandable reason why it can’t happen.
Pattern is way too familiar with ENIC windows. Maddison is the big “ambition” that can happen like Richarlison last summer. There is always one public one that flops.
So how much you reckon Maddison is worth, 26 yo one year left?
And
How much for Rice 24yo one year left? (£90m from woolwich already rejected)
Sadly, I think you're right
Leverkusen will price us out of Tapsoba and we'll splash the cash on Maddison and Adarabioyo instead to help with the HG quota.
I think 35-40m tops for Maddison including bonuses for the likes of qualifying for the Champions League.
Raya was no more than 25m worth in my opinion.
We need all three. I’d sacrifice PEH and Lo Celso still had enough fans in Spanish circles.
I agree we need all three. Well certainly Tosin and Tapsoba. I'd prefer Eze or even Olise over Maddison but it is what it is.
That'd cost us upwards of £115,000,000 on top of the money spent on our new goalkeeper as well as any other incomings like potentially Scott.
Have to get rid of Lloris, Perisic, Sessegnon, Sanchez, Dier, Winks, Ndombele etc sharpish.
LOL
A few years ears ago in Brick Lane on a Sunday and walked past a hardware barrow.
Bloke: "How much is this padlock?"
Barrowboy:"20p."
Bloke: "I'll give you 15p."
A relative of DL?
There is no way we see Adarabioyo as anything other than back up, he is 3rd choice for Fulham FFS.
Fans on the Fulham forums reckon Adarabioyo will go for between 15 and 25mil, so we could well end up with him and Vicario for the same price Brentford want for Raya, which would be great business.
Start the clock on the next tweet from Romano.
We can see it coming a mile off.
Probably they go after Tosin and try for another then end up going back to Lenglet later on in the window
He should have gone to Tesco Metaphorical - it's only 90p to start with (assuming it was semi-skimmed).
Bloke gives him a spoiled milk.
DL walks away happy.
And on top of what we spent on signing Kulusevski.
Did I say he would start?
We definitely need 2 new CBs and really 2 that are pushing to start.
Can just see this Tapsoba transfer has all the hallmarks building perfectly:
Public #1 target
Expensive
Highest priority position in the squad
Like the marketing link of the summer. He’s the one they’d like the fans to think they can get.
Then we move on. That's how football works.
If you have to google the likes of Kulusevski, Richarlison, Bissouma, Perisic and Forster, that's on you.
There’s no wild reason, Leverkusen don’t sell cheap, apparently Woolwich wanted him but got quoted £60m so moved on to Timber. Are we gonna pay big bucks for him?
