Oliver Skipp - confirmed official

[Nolucklcfc]

****ing how much?! 

[lcfcsnow]

We've basically took Winks and Skipp off Spurs hands for Maddison

[moore_94]

Praying for a Percy bomb that it isn’t that much

 

[Mickyblueeyes]

In excess of £20m - **** me.

[Finnegan]

I honestly think the AI on football manager makes better signings than us this year. 

[Micky]

Let's all believe the person who says 'the deal is believed to be'...

I think that will be with loads of add ons.

 

I reckon we are paying 10m upfront.

[Nolucklcfc]

Weren’t we weighing up whether to pay 25 for the Greek lad? You know, A STRIKER? 

[ts_1010]

If it was £10m now and £10m is we stay up, then he's only going to cost £10m. Which is nice.

 

Can't believe we've just dropped £20m for an injury prone central midfielder when we have so many holes all over the pitch.

 

It just shows that nobody wants to come here.

[Pliskin]

It’s not in excess of £20m…… he’s plucked that figure out of thin air.

This is the kind of deal you do on FM when you are the Spurs manager and add another manager to buy your players for stupid fees

[Fox85]

 

Skipps best moments is a wopping 1 minute long on a youtube vidwo it wouldnt allow me to share.

 

1 minute 😆 😂 🤣  

 

**** sake leicester.

 

[st albans fox]

Glad to see all those who moaned about the winks deal are moaning about this one 

 

he’s 23 

he’s got inherrent value  because he has two more decent sales in his career. 
 

 

[TheGoldenGod]

I get we're desperate and panicking...but how about panicking for a bastard goalscorer instead? Braindead board.

Dreadful signing. Genuinely not what we need.

You can’t expect Winks and Ndidi to play full 90’s every game like we did last season - we will need at least one if not two midfielders to come on at the 60-75 minute mark every game.

[Beechey]

 

Unsure if posted yet

[Gav_LCFC14]

Rudkin please for the love of God just leave you utter waste of space 

[winteriscoming]

20m fvck off. 
Are we trying to break the record for the most dcm and cbs while having the least no. of forward’s possible? 

[Shane]

Helps spurs with PSR, then later down the road they will return the favour and pay over the odds for one of our players. 

[kingfox]

Said it all summer that we needed an alternative for Winks, we needed one last season too, hence why we tried to sign Sensi. 
 

Do fans really want Soumare and Choudhury as viable midfield options this season, because I certainly don’t. 
 

Other positions should be priority, but we also lack depth in central midfield, Skipp is the type of signing you expect a newly promoted club to make. 
 

If Cooper starts Winks and Skipp together though, then he’s off his rocker.

Even then our squad isn't great for the championship? 

Had we signed players who'd excelled last season or young, talented prem players who need experience and a chance to start somewhere the maybe I'd agree 

More the core areas than anything mate and a foundation to go again.

[georgelcfc34]

Moaning about signing skipp? There’s a serious bias on this site against anyone that is British. If he was called skippinho from Brazil and was the exact same player, you’d all be delighted

What on earth are we up to

Panic stricken… we’ve obviously been interested for ages as the rumours have been about a while. We’ve failed to get a number of transfers over the line for whatever reason and now we’ve had to bite the bullet and pay what the other club asked to progress a deal. 
 

Im not sure why the outrage though to be honest, it’s more than I would have liked. But  we were paying £8-£10m for Ulloa a decade ago. We paid £14m for a winger after one decent season and even that price was agreed before he’d kicked a ball, Players cost a lot of money. Especially if you want people used to playing premier league football in this country.

 

[Finnegan]

Someone remind me what Gustavo Hamer's release clause is. 

[goose2010]

20m for a hard working english CM. 

 

Takes the risk out of signing someone from Europe. 

 

Just feels a bit meh just like the whole club.
