I think they are deliberately trying to force up the price for us, £25M does not seem like a serious bid from them.

If we want him we had better step up our attempts quickly. The bookies have already ruled us out. I fear we will lose out yet again.

I think Chelsea are serious now that Oxlaid-Chamberlain has decided not to join them. £25M is just the opening bid. I'm afraid they will up it.

Will depend on Barkley's attitude.
A club and trainer who will offer him development and time or a club and trainer who will offer him a bigger paypacket

I think we pissed on our chips by leaving it so late. 30 million is the maximum we should go really.

40 million for a player that´s (most likely) not going to be match fit this side of Christmas? And has 12 months left on his contract? Sorry, but even in this crazy transfer window, that is truly .. eh.. crazy!

Also can't understand why he would choose a theatrical ape who salivas all over you if you score a goal having run a lap around the stadium blowing kisses and throwing flowers over our cool debonair coach
