Don't know why they'd get rid of Almorim and then get El Khannous. Very similar players, just El Khannous has less end product. Smacks of desperation from the Geordies. Maybe it's because Anthony Gordon has got an injury. 

 

"Almorim" and El Khannouss are nothing alike 😂 Almiron is 10 years older than him and plays off the right, cutting inside onto his stronger left foot

This will be a tough pill to swallow if it happens - his release clause is probably only slightly higher than we paid i'm guessing?

[AjcW]

I imagine we will move for Chair now.

With what money? 
 

Or would Sheff utd accept 5-8m?

[Bordersfox]

B0llocks. I had foolishly allowed myself a glimmer of hope he might stay.

 

When will I learn? 

[CL Fox]

Someone appears to be pretty desperate to ship him on....

 

There must be a reason why no one has gone for him - I know he's great but I'd rather keep Fattawu if it's a choice of him or Bilal. Then if we can sell Winks as well, hopefully that covers everything.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

They can't/won't pay.

Two old for me, we need to look younger and cheaper.

[UniFox21]

Let's just report them to FA for breaching confidentiality of the clause

Whatever you put in, is what you get out.
It’s as simple as that

you want to sell Winks as well? starting Soumare and Skipp next game? My heads fallen off

Hmm - interesting - I think there is a huge amount of love for this guy after 1 year with us that was absolutely average - I’m still to be convinced - he wasn’t great 1st half yesterday either - some horrible touches - better second definitely but if someone is paying 25m for him then good luck to him and them - I know I’ll get some abuse for this but he is nowhere near as good as KDH in my book - didn’t see him getting 10 goals this year either - anyway let’s hope we have a couple of creative players incoming even if on loan that can link the midfield and forwards

better options out there than him and his "off the field" problems

 

and BEK to Newcastle is an odd one imo, as they dont play with a number 10 per say either, odd one since theyve been going all out for forwards more than anything

 

also given the reported release clause is only here for another 4 days, why hasnt been activated yet....

I don't want either of them to start to be honest, but if we can get money for Winks and above £30m for bilal (which it must be, as I can't see why anyone wouldn't have gone for him at the £22-25m mark) I think that's just good business.

[FosseSpark]

If he's going, get him gone, and back Alves, Monga and / or someone else in that inside left space. 

Football is finance now and we are clearly needing to show the League that we are cutting our cloth.

Back to my original point, do you really want Skipp and Soumare to start then? That is self sabotage 

[Jabbaranks]

I hate this club. I get some people's views on him that we might be overrating him or he maybe hasn't delivered that much, but he quite clearly has the capability and potential to rip it up in this league, as opposed to Winks, Soumare and Skipp who never have and never will. LCFC just reminds me now of that car boot sale stand that has a few good bits that get picked up early, and all you're left with are Danny Baker Own Goals and Gaffs DVD boxsets, an alarm clock, a Spice Girls 1998 calendar and a signed photo of Chico X Factor.

It won’t sit right with me if we get that.

[DezFox]

Of course he will be sold, really not sure why espme people have been suggesting he might stay. He will go and it will be for under his value. Nothing has changed.

No - im assuming we'd actually sign some players with the money.
