By God Mystery why aren't you in the negotiating room, given minute by minute updates on your phone under the table so no one notices? I demand to know at what point we are at, I want to know how many minutes we have been talking, what Levy and the Porto Pres had for lunch, how much a pint of Portuguese milk is and what falcao thinks of Dubstep.
Mystery knows someone who knows what's going on, but obviously isnt 'in the room' as they say as Mystery is playing golf with him. We don't know how Levy works, we don't know what flying over there means, what stage the talks are at, but I bet its a hell of a lot easier doing it face to face than getting a fax, having it translated, formulating a reply, getting that translated, sent over, then waiting for the reply all the while people are distracting him with this that and the other.
Going over there makes negotiating a lot easier. Do you want Levy to do a multi-million transfer, which could be critical to our future, by text or something?
Like all ITK, I'm not taking it as gospel, but I'm not knocking it because of something trivial. Plus people have been complaining Levy spreads his bets too much, going in for loads of players instead of getting the one we want. At least this way he's showing some conviction by flying out there.
As for Falcao, I think he would be an immense signing, goal scorer, proficient in the air, good with his back to goal, plus a hard worker. Upgrade on all our current lot, plus could probably work with any combination of VDV, JD, Crouch, or Pav
Well said Sir :bowdown:
