madrid spur on ftl:
Deal is not dead at all.
Valencia want to maximise the deal, and are looking for, in their eyes a littel more in the cash part. Our offer is close enough that an agreement will be made.
Soldado has agreed terms in principle and when the agreement is made between clubs (expected to be this aftrenoon tomorrow morning) the rest will move quickly.
So you've been saying he's a twat during the time he's taken us from dreadful football and midtable finishes to good football,and Europe every year , from Andy Booth on loan to trying to sign one of the most coveted forwards in European football. What has Daniel Levy ever done for us eh?
This is exactly what every news outlet wants, deal is on, deal is off, on again, maybe, bid lowered, bid upped, add-ons, part exchanges blah blah blah *MORE HITS ON MY INTERNET SITE PLEASE, MORE PAPERS SOLD PLEASE*
Fucking hell, this may happen, this may not happen - deals are complex, they go back and forth, you have your 2 clubs, agents, lawyers ad infinitum - fuck me even Football Manager deals aren't that simple anymore, just signing on an U14 kid to play for my team next season is hassle in itself so why do people think it's as simple as Levy rocking up and asking for Soldado like me just about to get a burrito on my lunch break.
I'm still expecting it to be done, haven't seen anything which rules us out, mainly twitter rubbish and a few rags which I won't put my faith in.
Sorry, but that's just not possible. They are in no position to close any potential deals and they are in no position to let their emotions affect their business.
I like the sound of Madrid Spur's post. To go from so very close last night, to get nowhere now just sounds stupid. I think he'll get done and an agreement maybe made today'/tomorrow.

Baldini flying home without doing a deal is what concerns me most after it seemed to be so close. Fingers crossed its still is and will get it done asap.
