Looking at it from a completely objective and unbiased viewpoint I’m sure he’ll sign for the team I like because otherwise I’ll have a strop.


I think I’ve just killed half the threads that will appear on here this summer.

 

[PLTuck]

Oh well that's that then. Shame

 

[Jenko]

Ah shite. I was hoping when i opened this up that it would be Norwich city...

 

[Donki]

Guys have faith, Ajax players have their heads screwed on, he will get a dam sight more game time with us which is more important for him as his age. We also have a very good relationship with Ajax, who as a club really do care about their ex players and their development. He has a shout in this I feel.

 

[Japhet]

Here's hoping he's bright enough to recognise that City is a graveyard for young prospects.

 

[Bilko]

This is not just going to hapeen to us-these greedy shits have no limits

Oi. Watch it.

Another classic buy what your rivals want to scupper them. At least Chelsea let up a bit in doing that.

 

[Pellshek]

Does Pep fancy Stones? A lot could depend on that. I'm not sure he does in all honesty.

Tbf, this is the sort of players they should throw their money at now. They could have a world class CB for 15 years.

City transfer tactics-
look who the top six are going for and out bid them

 

[BTN1]

Is this source ligt? ..... tumbleweed .... I’ll get my coat

Makes me want to sing, "Groove is in the heart".

If we've had an offer accepted, I'd have thought we could go on and at least match City (though of course City could up there's again). That would leave it to see what sort of life de Ligt wants - football or money.

Sorry Toby, this means you're staying with us now

 

[db1]

Damn the down side to bidding early

Wish they'd just buy an amazing in their prime 25 year old one instead of the only chance we have at those types- while they're young. Now they want to take ALL the best young guys as well as in prime ones. Hate the fake money clubs, takes the fun away.

If we had our bid accepted surely it means we can but the player for that money, being outbid means if he accepts city then they pay more than us
