Absolute shocker, what a complete and utter boot in the bollox :(

Im struggling to think where we turn next. No fucking chance of Higuain and I dont harbour much hope of getting Soldado either.

It's disappointing, I'm starting to think just sign Bernard and just stick Bale through the middle(as a striker), I'd be happy with that.

Well, the good thing is that whenever we miss out on a player, they're shit anyway.... Dodged a bullet did we!

Disappointed that we didnt get this sorted. What other options are out there? I guess by default daimao but I dont think that is likely.

Leandro perhaps?? I really cant think of many alternatives. I can see Levy going for Remy but he's not hat we need upfront in the Benteke mould.

I'd love Leandro, but it seems that deal is destined not to happen. Theres Higuain and Soldado, but we're deffo running out of options that would genuinely improve us. I agree with you on Remy, not what we need and I dont rate him personally.

Bullet dodged IMo.

Seems like a bit of a mercenary and I reckon even 20 mil was too much to stump up anyway.

To all the Sc-ers who will be howling at the moon later - please spare some thoughts for the Villa fans - many were called - mugs, idiots and wankers etc.

Have they got egg on their faces ? Fuck no.

Nope, but they're massive hypocrites who only yesterday were slagging him off.

From the looks of this we were never gonna get him, he wanted to stay and pulled all the levers for a better contract. Fuck all we could do about it.
