Sums up our negotiating team 

I bet rudders has an excel spreadsheet with a number against each player.  He’s not trusted to make a decision below that. So we never sell anyone cos he doesn’t know how to negotiate around a number. 

[dooflip]

No brainier for 5mil! Get him gone!

 

At this point we need to just be accepting the bids that come in for the wage collectors. Makes little difference if we end up a little short for cover because we are already down. At least we can get some players on big wages who aren’t good enough off the books.

As reported in the Daily Mail today we are hamstrung by the ponderous Rudkin.  

 

It's incredible there is anyone left that defends this cretin.  

[Scotch]

No wonder we are in a financial mess. We have players who aren't good enough and aren't playing being kept here at the expense of profit and we are paying them wages for the privilege. 

[dbtcity]

€5m not £5m…. Either way Thomas > Kristiansen… can they not snap up the useless Dane instead

[FrankieADZ]

5mil euros, but we should accept and put in a sell on clause

take it

Good it's about time we had a proper clear-out!

[moore_94]

Literally pure profit - just take it

[Claudio Fannieri]

Ludicrous that we aren’t looking to sell at that kind of money, £5m + performance related add ons and a sell on % of any future profit. Even it’s in euros it’s still  £4.2m and that unlocks £16-20m we can spend on incoming fees, absolute madness, we will piss arse around and eventually he will leave for free after hanging around offering little and checked out. 

[Grebfromgrebland]

True maybe we've decided to abandon the season completely and just get rid of loads of players

Isn't he also off in 6 months on a free anyway?

[CrazyKopCorner]

Could we not club together to make up the potential shortfall? 

 

€5m I'd still have your arm off to the shoulder 

 

 

[Happy Fox]

You accept that ! Rudkin’s negotiating skills are shilo.

Come on Leicester, deal

Definitely a positive if we are trimming the fat of the squad, too many players just not good enough and hanging around season after season. 

 

Even if we don't get the replacements we want and need this window, are we really worse off on the field if we lose cannon, Hamza and Thomas? 

 

Yet we could be in a much better financial situation to reset in the summer, especially when we also lose a few out of contracts with the likes of Iverson and ward. 

 

Too many shit players on good contracts, get what we can for them, they aren't contributing anyway. 

[LVFox]

Utterly ridiculous if true.

 

I genuinely think the club has no idea what PSR is. Surely someone in there is figuring out that's a £25m replacement on a 5 year deal?

[les-tah]

that Literally means we can drop €25 Million euros on a signing over a 5 year contract

 

so wont be done because rudders wants €5.25 and wont budge and loses the deal “art of the deal by Jon rudkin”

£5m I’d chuck in a complimentary gift basket as a thank you to our kind German friends, what the ****
