Stadium will be a game changer he said loooool
Game changer for their salaries and bonuses no doubt.

Well so far we've gone the other way in that we loan them and hope they do well which leads to a sale we consider acceptable. It's not the worst strategy but it clearly hasn't had the desired effect so far. At some point we need to realise this and just let them go for whatever we can get.
Even Charity Shops have standardsI went to a boot sale the other week as all my suits and a load of other clothes all suddenly shrank at the same time….
I sold about half the clothes for about £70 and on the way out, I swung past a Cash for Clothes unit and sold the rest for £1.40…because I have no use for them anymore, so just wanted rid no matter the price. They would have gone to a charity shop otherwise.
Wish Levy could show similar pragmatism
the problem with your analogy is that your clothes had no say on who they were sold to. We have the problem where we need clubs to agree to buy the players and the players will actually need to agree to go. This also applies to cancelling contacts, it has to be an agreement between club and player. There are massive downsides for a player to be without a club for any length of time, not least the lack of training, medical treatment and rehab etc. So they will probably need to be confident of a new club if they were to agree to cancel contact with the club.I went to a boot sale the other week as all my suits and a load of other clothes all suddenly shrank at the same time….

This strategy wouldn't explain why we've been so bad at shifting unwanted players who've got a year left though. I know there's been a mini renaissance of sorts with Sanchez, but both him and Dier both have a year left. You'd think Levy would be desperate to get a few quid for them before they leave on frees. You'd also think he'd be happy to let Lloris find a club for free knowing he won't want to pay wages. Yet all of them are still here.Well so far we've gone the other way in that we loan them and hope they do well which leads to a sale we consider acceptable.

That 100m has been lost down the back of the sofa obviously.More information from Dragon 1 on COYS
Daniel is more sensitive over wages than transfer fees
incomings will depend heavily on shifting Tanguy who is on 200k a week , Loris 100k and Sanchez 80k a week
get movement on them then we may have one or max two buys
So...no buys thenMore information from Dragon 1 on COYS

I would think Dier would be on a comprable deal to Sanchez tbh. It’s more likely that it’s just that there’s interest in Sanchez, Whereas we’ve heard Dier doesn’t want to leave until next summer.That 100m has been lost down the back of the sofa obviously.
Good to see priority is shifting a player of use like Dav over Dier due to wages. Profit over points it is
Opinion. Well we know how that could end then…More information from Dragon 1 on COYS

It's all about the bottom line and not sporting performance and that's my issue here.I would think Dier would be on a comprable deal to Sanchez tbh. It’s more likely that it’s just that there’s interest in Sanchez, Whereas we’ve heard Dier doesn’t want to leave until next summer.
Really surprised Hugo is still here above all of the others.More information from Dragon 1 on COYS

If it was solely about wages they'd have been gone months ago with the exception of Tanguy.More information from Dragon 1 on COYS

How so? Nobody said it is solely about wages, D1 said he's more sensitive about wages than fees which isn't the same thing.If it was solely about wages they'd have been gone months ago with the exception of Tanguy.
You learn nothing about Ange, he is his own man and you just pushing your narrative.I think Ange is toeing the party line. When he speaks to the media, it’s basically the only thing he’s doing.
Current cycle we're stuck in:Should have known that the influx of new posts was just the same people saying the same things about Levy again.
