I never knew his brother was the f1 driver… learn something new everyday.

He was my dream signing for us when we needed a defensive midfielder. Very good player, that you’ll sell for a profit in a few years time.

If it is Jakub Kaminski I can’t wait for fans to complain about having another right footed left back

Would seem odd with multiple sources saying we want a couple of attackers as well as Ayew. Bilal and Fofana on loan would be my guess. Rumours of wanting a new left back has gone quite too, which I would imagine means Thomas is staying around.

Horrible over pay that. Makes Liam delap seem a odd signing as well.

I have a strange feeling this might happen.

I mean it’s the difference of like 500k if he sells for £50m one day… it’s barely anything, just strange to negotiate especially if we are paying more up front. All I can think of is their add on clauses were way to easily achievable.

It was their terms? How could they refuse their own conditions?

If a future sale of £50m happened, their terms would cost us £32m if add ons and sell on clause is all met. Our terms it would cost us £32.5m, classic Rudkin.

They wanted 10% sell on as well.

So they wanted €21m + €6m euros as well as 10% sell on…. We’ve offered €23m + €2m with 15% sell on…. Rudkin refuses to accept a deal without it being his negotiation!

Would hope so, you never know with Rudkin.

Wage structure?! They taking the p*ss?

Are we sure it’s definitely the goalkeeper?

Honestly hope Mavididi starts and has a great game to prove to Cooper he should be starting.

For me Cooper made a comment that concerned me after the Tottenham game, he stated “the fans gave me the confidence to go for it” or something along those lines…. That would explain his Home and away record, he shouldn’t need the fans to dictate how he approaches the game.

Dream signings: ST - Fotis Ioannidis CAM - Bilal El Khannous LB - Quilindschy Hartman Likelihood: ST - Fofana (Loan with obligation) CAM - Bilal El Khannous LB - Ben Chilwell or Sergio Reguilon (Loan)

100% he will need time to adjust to the tempo of the premier league. But he oozes talent. A lot of comparisons to Ziyech and Taarabt from morrocan fans. He was on my list of targets for this summer, so I’m happy! Dream signing - O’Riley (Celtic) Other options: Nanasi (Malmo) Bilal el Khannouss (Genk) Sergio Arribas (Almeria) Reo Hatate (Celtic) Angel Gomes (Lille) Sammie Szmodics (Blackburn)

I mean he’s coming in still, but Rudkin knew he could get this done, so completed the move knowing if other targets as well as Ayew don’t work out that’s he’s covered himself by getting another body in.

Have they not ruled the move out by saying he wants champions league?

Seems to me this is Rudkin’s safety net incase other transfers don’t work out. Regardless, massive overpay but I think the player himself is a good addition but not as a starter.

Accept a fee of whatever is left on the books, get him gone and get his wages gone.

Could be a good option to get on a cheap this year on loan with a view to permanent next year. But I think we are looking for a winger who can also play in the 10 role, and bring in an out and out striker. I mentioned on another thread I think Reiss Nelson will end up coming.

I think Reiss Nelson will end up happening personally.

Yes. No good for my FM save that.
