Yeah, imagine that! It would be like competing with Palace back in 2020 to sign Eze from QPR.

Yeah. If we knew he was a filthy gooner and only wanted the goons then it was always going to be a waste of time
That would be very nice
Know nothing about Paz .. is there anyone on here who has watched him consistently?
Akliouche ..
bus-conductor
come on you french football nerd - is he actually any good or is he just your standard 'cool sounding name and french players are all talented, right?' clone.It's as if Spurs have no understanding of how time impacts negotiations.
Don’t believe it.
I am sure the brains of TFC said no players would join Forest due to how they treated MGW and no agents would ever send their players there
Ive been on a plane for hours and just turned on my roaming. I'm assuming I havent missed anything whatsoever?
The spin from the club is that they were always wary that Eze was waiting for Woolwich, which many of us were too. Fine. But a competent club would have alternatives lined up and ready to be moved on swiftly. We are still "exploring the conditions" and "monitoring" various random players. There is clearly no proper plan or urgency at all.
This is what Levy always does, he gives himself 10 days to do 2 months worth of transfer activity, it is impossible to do a proper job that way. He thinks it's easier to buy at this point but he is a moron, it is much harder to buy now because selling clubs have minimal time to replace players. If you want someone important then you need to sign them during pre-season. We will now be forced to sign from a pool of players like Garnacho and Nkunku, whose clubs badly want rid.

So why not meet the release clause? Why not bid higher? Were they blind to the risk? Why is he only worth £68m if Johnson was worth £50m odd?
Yeah mate but so would a night with Abella Danger and Angela White and I don't think that's happening anytime this week either.
Yep. We've had several Gooner fans that have played for us and given their all.
And also Darren 'get' Bent.
Frank just now:
"We need to do everything we can to be as competitive as possible. I am confident we will sign a player before the end of the window. Two players in, two players out so probably a bit similar."
Doesn't sound good.

I think we are still operating under the belief that the closer it gets to the end of the window , the better bargains we can get.....
Failure by club to do basic due diligence imho.
FFS. This club.
I agree completely with this. I don’t really care that we lost out on Eze. I’m more frustrated with the fact that it seems to take us a month to complete a transfer and other teams can turn it around in a week.
RIP Nuno. Thoughts and prayers.
Shower thought: What happens when an unstoppable farce meets an immovable degenerate?
100% Greek tragedy!
This is exactly why he was hired in the first place. It was implicitly agreed that Levy would be able to fuck him over and penny pinch and he’d be too professional to complain bc he’s used to a shoestring budget. Levy is pure evil
Back. This. Man!
