Everyone else signs a player before they sell their prized asset

 

We go through the hassle of getting a player over to the training ground to replace our prized asset, but will only sign the new guy if we manage to sell ours. WHAT

Bit strange this. There's no way he'd be here if there were £10 mil between what we want to pay and what they want for him.

I just registered because I'm trying to follow this whole Adrien saga, I'm a Sporting fan. Hope that's okay.

 

What is happening is Adrien wants to leave. That's public. He tried to force Sporting to sell him last year, even submitting a letter to one of our major newspapers on deadline day (?) saying he'd move that day. Of course, at the end of the day nothing happened because losing him would be too big a blow for Sporting. Eventually it was agreed between him and the board that if another club came in with an offer of 30M€ again, it would be accepted. It was pretty much implicit that Adrien would 100% be leaving this year.

 

But right now, the only club interested in him is Leicester. So Leicester now has Sporting by the balls: they are aware of the situation, they know Adrien wants to leave and they know he'll do everything in his power to force Sporting to accept even a low-ball offer like £15M. That's not a good sale for Sporting though, so rumour is Sporting is only willing to sell for 25M€ (~£27M).

 

As a Sporting fan, I don't really know what to think. Him staying would be great for us on the field, but awful for Adrien as a person and for the locker room. Imagine being in his shoes and not being allowed to move AGAIN? On the other hand, Adrien leaving for £15M wouldn't be good business because he's worth more than that to us...

20M? We're making a fuss about 20M when Sigurdsson or Walker went for 50M?

 

The fvck is wrong with Rudkin?

Maybe he's just had enough of everyone attacking him!

The lack of balti pukka pies caused this

It was always going to have a bigger impact on the club than they could have imagined.

 

Not for me, I can imagine everything. Like, right now, I imagine you slipping your shirt up and circling a nipple with your index finger. And now Master Fox is entering the room. What's that he's carrying? Oh my God, you may never walk normally again!

 

Oh yes, I can imagine everything.

What a fiasco ... 20 minutes to go and we are none the wiser on Drinkwater, Silva or Mahrez

Mahrez looks likely to stay, there is no news there at all... the guy has gone missing

I'm betting we stiffed him on the number of Greggs sausage rolls we'd give him.

But he gets a years supply of Prince of Punjab grub...

Hello, boys. Here we are again, heh?

 

I'm gonna be honest, I don't mind him leaving so much this year as last year, we got an amazing player for his position in Bruno Fernandes. Plus, he's a year older, his last season wasn't quite on par with the one before.

 

However, the numbers being floated here, 15 million sterling, it just feels wrong. Especially if you bag 32 for Drinkwater.
