Roberto Soldado

[raf18]

I want my Soldado and I want it now! (calm down just a little joke)

 

[Mr Pink]

Soldado bingo anybody?

I reckon 7pm tonight they'll accept a proposal from us.

 

[y1dk1d]

Anyone think if it happens it can happen today? I really want this confirmed now!

 

[dk-yid]

Aye, might have been a bit foolish on our part to start so high. Closer to 22me would have been better, with the 8me in add-ons.

For what it's worth I think we'll get this done. Though I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed we didn't spend this kind of money on Llorente 2 or 3 years back.

Perhaps, but don't know where we started tbh. Kbnowing Levy we probably started at 15 M.

I wonder why now. Why this intent and willingness to spend. There must be something in the financials and/or our position that has changed. This kind of spend on a player has been our wet dream - but defo a dream - for such a long time.

Not complaining. Loving it.

POTL:

PoTL is the one guy we can trust here. Top table source. None better.

Don't think the Valencia President got that memo.

"We never wanted to sell Soldado, either €30m is paid, or he will stay here. We were very clear with Franco Baldini yesterday 30 million and in the payment terms we want. Until the 3rd of Aug we are willing to listen. After that we'll hear no one."

He needs to be patient. We haven't even got the part of the discussions where we nail his hands to the desk.

3rd August. This one could drag.

He can hardly say otherwise can he? He wants to secure the best deal for his club. If he says anything else there will be a queue of people trying to low ball him for all his other players.

Bullshit. After 3rd August you will be shitting your pants trying to flog him to the highest bidder.

£30m extra a yr - guaranteed.

I'll play probably the most depressing game of bingo ever.

I hope we sign him, and I reckon a deal will be agreed this Friday. Two and six, twenty six.

 

[Bobbyh99]

So €30m (£26m) is the price on their payment terms (whatever they may be) or no deal.
Still can't see Spurs going to €30m! We ain't Citeh

Doubt it. Valencia want Soldado sold, and rather sooner than later. But they will of course want to hold out for 30 million. And so they should.

 

[Jimmypearce7]

"This is a negotiation, not an ultimatum. Relax everybody, It's ongoing.

POTL"

When/if Soldado is confirmed i will relax. Until then it is impossible despite your well meaning advice.

 

[have_it]

Benteke who?

 

[y1dk1d]

Talkshite reckon Liverpool have him, their ahead of us and basically it's theirs to lose

Depends if there is any other concrete interest in him. If there is, could move quicker than we think.

 

[ataggy]

What is POTL?

 

[Moonie]

I'm making myself paranoid now, all this Bale talk about a 6 year deal with Real, now he is out of today's training. What if, what if we have all this money to spend because we know Bale is going? Maybe Levy struck a deal with Madrid but told them to keep schtum so we could get our incomings dealt with first without clubs knowing we had £85m burning a hole in our pocket.

Please tell me I'm paranoid??!?!
