We've been stung as a club before - take your pick from not replacing Mahrez despite having 4 weeks to do so or the Adrien Silva debacle to replace Drinkwater. I hope the lot of them have learnt their lesson. Very good post Jeff ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also told the deadline has passed...so who knows!! 80m+ is a lot of money and if it's really on the table (havent seen or heard any solid proof i'd trust yet), then i'd be a little worried. I've been a "remainer" throughout and am watching on with interest (and signed HM merch for sale to United mug if he does) £80mill is a lot of money for our club, I'd maybe lean towards selling if it is £80 plus and add ons on top.

Last i heard he was fed up with how the club was being run and lack of opportunities to strengthen the side. I am sure he was as frustrated by it as the last person. If anything it will make him emphasis his point about not leaving things until the last minute more strongly to our board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sol thewall Bamba Posted 1 August 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 1 August 2019 This thread is great, rumours of a £80 million bid for a defender of ours and we're posting photoshops and discussing who says Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me. Same old Leicester, taking the piss. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan hasn't left those problems at Celtic to find the same problems here. The manager and the board will most certainly be on the same page and given their experience in dealing with these situations before, I'm confident we're not going to lose out, whatever happens. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post urban.spaceman Posted 1 August 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 1 August 2019 It’s very important that we turn down any offer now. I don’t even care if he has a shocker of a season and leaves for £30m to Swansea next summer. It’s the principle. We don't want sell and we don’t need the money. We have a better chance of achieving our ambitions by keeping him. You don't get to buy our players just because you’re technically a bigger club. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we take a very large chunk of money and improve our team even further. In the mean time Maguire flops at United and we have a chuckle at their expense.

If they offered £90m straight now, you've got to take it if that's the club's valuation. You've promised the player he will go with your best wishes if they meet it. Not holding up your end of the bargain is just not acceptable, if that's what you've promised the player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
