This one has stuck with me since last night. Getting a bit confusing as to who said what last night but there was mention of a player who 'made a mistake' he now regrets and another club being furious if we pulled it off.

His current absurd wages wouldn't matter if he feels he made a big error going to China. He'll have collected north of 20m in one year in China. We almost bought him before Chelsea who came in and made an offer that was more than double ours so we have had long standing interest. Chelsea would perhaps be furious if he came back to the PL with us.

There has been reports that Chinese clubs have to fire sale their overpaid players to get rid of debt of which Oscars team is one of them.

Long long shot, but hey ho

Was it an ITK that said that on here? Can't see how we'd get near Oscar when he was bought for £60m... Even if he is after less wages I can't see that coming off. There would be a lot of other suiters who could offer better wages and the fee...

No it wasn't itk it was a random guess based on speculation.

The poster specifically said he wasn't ITK and it was just a hunch and immediately people steamed in to reply "It's not just a hunch". This fucking board...

Maybe time for a new thread named 'just a hunch'. This would allow a forum for the misc . For example - drive to work was served at Macs by someone named Gareth and then being stuck in the road because there was a 'bale' of hay!

Ali Z on COYS:

Told 2 in RB CH in the next week, wimmer gone.

I thought the benefit of having Poch was that we developed players rather than the revolving door policy we used to operate. I always thought Wimmer looked alright, hard to find an upgrade in this market.

Right back and a center half in the next week? Or Barkley and a center half in the next week? Gonna need some clarification.

Sounds like the extent of the business will be replacements for Wimmer, Walker, Pau and Sissoko(CB, RB, Gazzaniga and Barkley). Very underwhelming to say the least.

Wimmer has no confidence from Pochettino. It doesn't matter whether you think he is OK or not, there is no room for players who don't have the basic trust or goodwill from the manager.

That sounds good to me, as long as they are players of quality.

Barkley is relatively key to a semi successful window. He is the only player we have been seriously linked with who strengthens our match day squad.
