For me when you spend more than £15m, £16m or £18m you must first have a player that brings good things like good behaviour, discipline, responsibility, professionalism,” he said. “This is first, and he also has to have enough quality to improve the squad
Direct quote from Poch, he is telling any prospective purchases, this is what we expect, it could be interpretated as advice to Berahino to get it together on and of the pitch and we will reevaluate in the summer.

I still see us trying again to be honest.
I think he'll be one of those players that finds a club/manager that suits him, and will be pretty prolific.
The optimist in me believes that his relationship with the other England lads could be key. They'll know what type of character he is, and equally he should have been asking them what Pochettino and Tottenham are like.

If we are going to get him it was always going to be right down to the wire so Peace can save face. No way he was letting his prize asset go at start of window after all the shit in August

But doesn't he want out of the club because he WANTS to be here? This is all about Peace dicking about with his move last summer
Not a great option for West Brom I mean. I dont think he is going to help West Brom much now, think Peace has backed himself into a corner waiting for a huge offer thats not going to come.

Agree, but it's clear he staying in his corner with his crayons.

Glad we aren't bothering. I'll take great pleasure when he is sold for a flake of what we offered in the summer.

Well done Pearce, you won I guess :ROFLMAO:

Yeah I think this won't happen now. They aren't going to sell but then again I suspect the club realised this.

He's got form on that too. Peter Odinwingie was spotted by Sky driving to QPR, but was then told there was no deal and so he drove back to WBA.

He was sold in the next TW to Cardiff for less than the bid Peace had turned down from QPR.

Peace is going to look like such a genius to WBA fans when he holds on to a diminishing asset that the manager refuses to play for another 6 months, only to then either lose him on a free or sell him for way under market value...

I'd love nothing more for them to drop down the table and get relegated - unfortunately its highly unlikely.

The thing is, I don't think he gives two fucks. That's what it seems to look like to me anyway.

This increased TV money is a big boon for egotistical chairmen. Hopefully it means its almost impossible for Levy to sell anyone against his will also...
