One saving grace is the fact there won't be the rush for the medical so this is literally down to pounds, shillings and pence which admittedly is the massively tricky hurdle but nevertheless, a deal can still be reached later on.

No way any team at the San Siro could make this deal work.
If he's transferred within Italy nothing would change for the third party who holds his image rights. The problem is that in England there is no such thing as image rights, so in order to move here the third party would have to be bought out and relinquish their holding. Wouldn't be an issue if he moved to Inter.

Reckon there’s still a small chance of this happening, much more than I was expecting at this point.

Sureee, slim chance?

3 hrs is too short. Loan not even possible.
It's just him saying that so people still are hooked and follow him throughout the day.
Clicks and shit. Typical journalist BS.

You act like it'd be the start of a brand new deal. They just need to sort the loan aspects within 3 hours if they were legitimately going this route.

In:
N’dombele - replacing Dembele (18 months late)
Lo Celso - replacing Eriksen (if he doesn’t sign new contract)
Sessegnon - future replacement of Rose (contract expires next summer)

Out:
Trippier - no replacement

Still in limbo with contracts expiring within 12 months:
Toby
Eriksen
Rose
Vertonghen (only One giving signals he might stay and extend contract).

I have a hard time seeing this as a positive window where we come out clearly strengthened.

Dybala/Coutinho in: we would all have been running around screaming in joy. It would’ve shown intent, that we truly are ready to take that next step up to be a truly “Big Club”. It would’ve given the manager, coaches, staff, players and not at least the fans a renewed belief we can push for greater things. Now: I don’t know... it’s just going to be more of the same? Our golden generation of players over the last 4-5 years are getting older and there are no signs that we are going to push for that extra yard. Except for the CL final (and it’s a big exemption!), all stats and indicators are pointing down.

Please! Someone! Help me find the positives!!

I can’t believe I fall for the same trick. Every. Single. Friggin’. Window.

If this deal falls through, surely the Premier League are as much to blame for not learning that having TDD weeks before the rest of Europe is hindering our teams chances of signing top world talent. They know they don’t have to rush a deal through with us, because they can just ship him out to inter when it all falls through.

A deal?
I’ll be positive in installments of 1hr for the next 2 and then abject disappointment for the final 55minutes.
Deal?

Anyway... really pleased we appear to have nailed Lo Celso and Sess, so yea we really should be positive, but Dybala... oh my this one is marquee... I really hope we somehow still pull this off, but I’m losing hope.

COYS!!!!
I cant positive, I havnt managed to iron out the image rights for it =(

It sucks that this didn't come off and I'm disappointed.

But if you're acting like this is the end of the world or that the club hasn't done solidly this window, you're just being a prat. We've massively broken our transfer record twice this window.

You can only hope that if what Gards says was accurate - that we've been talking about this with Juve / PD for weeks - that the loan was always a option and its partially complete...............................:sorry:

True, I just more meant that I can't see Inter affording him after Lukaku and AC milan are just weird.

Poch has a lot of faith in positive thoughts and positive energy producing positive outcomes.

For that reason, I’m still thinking positively that something can be worked out on this deal
