These guys give us information as they get it. Things change and then some on this forum give them stick. We're quite lucky we can still say "slow day" at this rate there will be nothing as I fear some on here will run the ITKs out of town!

"Sorry to all COYSers. Info was solid at time of sharing. Was told he'd arrived at the lane to sign a contract. Never crossed my mind there was time for a hijack. Gutted.

Chelsea hijacked the Willian signing to try and scupper other big deals, not only involving us. These other pieces to the puzzle have been widely reported. Now there is a sequence of deals on hold as everyone regroups, which is why Bale has not yet been signed by RM."

A lot of us were saying that we wanted the Bale situation wrapped up either way asap. I now think delaying it as late as possible helps us. We can still go and get Lamela and the one or two other bits and pieces we want, but by delaying Bale this would in turn delay Arsenal and Man Utd from bringing in the likes of Ozil, di Maria etc if that is what they are planning.

Just a thought.

Makes sense but Mourinho is naive for thinking this would prevent the Bale deal tbh.

So Mourinho signing Willian could also be a way of him fucking with Madrid's Bale deal? I knew I wasn't crazy!

Fair play to them - That is assholery on an epic scale to surpass even their normal level!:notworthy:

I bet they're sat round "Mwahahaha-ing" even now....

That suggests that Mourinho was giving the two finger salute to RM as he no doubt got told that the Bale deal was dependent on Willian signing for us. It sounds like the sort of thing Mourinho would do to be honest.

Might backfire on Jose if Bale stays at Spurs and bangs a couple in against Chelsea

We might become the real winners out of this transfer

Benzema doesn't go to Arsenal
Bale doesn't go to RM
Chelsea waste 30m on a player they don't need
We keep Bale and sign EL
If only this was the outcome:unsure:
