Our board, if we've actually pulled out over the finances on this, need a rocket up the arse. We can't be saying we're one of the top 2 or 3 clubs for revenue in the world if we can't afford a transfer like this.


I'm all for going after Wirtz but not to the point where it breaks our wage structure. We still need to do the things that got us to the top and one of them was the ability to walk away when the numbers went above what we were prepared to pay. I've no problem with that.


I agree in principle. But there's such a shallow pool of talent in football these days, especially generational like wirtz, that we should be doing everything to secure them.

I'm happy pushing the price up for the scouse if they are even an option. I don't see ir myself

We've got more right than wrong with our transfers. People were saying Rice was the answer not so long ago and how many PL medals has he won? Wirtz, who knows l said in the other thread that we have a price and we stick to it. I'm good with that. As said in this thread, Wirtz may not fancy our style - who would on last years evidence. Frimpong? How many years did we have him here, great going forward but not a fb for me and we have jack doku savio and bobb currently albeit can see jack going.Kerkez looked tidy the other night and whenever I've seen him but I think we get the italian in from Juve who can also play across the back for cover. Not disputing your point that we are in for the best talent - as far as the press may tell us, but not getting any signed, but I'd be mighty surprised if we are not satisfied by the end of the summer. We fucking need to be after this season

No doubt at all that he is better than ALL our wide players? Does beg the question of IF he was here, why. Makes zero sense.

Rice would have been great here. He's done well at Arse, but is not his fault Arteta is a knob.

I am not upset because we couldn't get Wirtz. I am mad we brought him to our home just for him to end up at the scum of the earth. Either we were used again by another cunt to get what he wanted from another place or we are the most naive club in the world.
At this point I don't care if we will look back and say we dodged a bullet. I am fuming because we look soft.

If a player doesn't want to sign for whatever reason, that's on them not us. Let the scouse or whomever, pay over and above what we will pay, if it's solely about the money on the player or agent's side, then they're not the player for us. We can only show them the entire package which I'm certain we do and they choose based on what they or their agents want. Who's to say we were were in for Wirtz, maybe we were, maybe there's someone out there already in the bag incoming. As elsewhere in life, some people are cunts and not worth the mither, IF players turn up here giving us the idea that they'll choose us to push up their wage demands elsewhere there's fuck all we can do and it says more about them than us. I'll stand our trophy haul up over the past decade against any club in this country no-one can touch that. We are rebuilding and we do need to, but let's not lose sight of the system that delivered that

It’s how many of the players or reps operate now, sometimes more than one. They get the nod from his current club and that starts the process of getting him the best deal and % for them. No more meeting at a service station and sorting it out!!’ City had a chance to chat. He went to PSG in the Jan window. We might get him if we get Enrique…

If we got Gibbs White for not too much money, i'd be happy. Much as i didnt like his shithousery antics against us, you csn knock his efforts last season and this. He can play, he's a grafter and he'll provide a bit of bite to our midfield. Alongside Rodri, Echeverri it would be tough to beat. Get Khusanov into intensive training at RB and look for a dedicated proper LB

If he does come to us, i would hope my opinion of him would change ALA Bellamy, he's a cunt but he's our cunt fighting for our cause.

Kerkez to Scouse also.
They got three very decent players, to say the least, before the windows start.
