I think every one of our targets read this forum and were just trolling James Prescott.

I think the point is that you said Chalobah is better than Pogba. If that's not waffle then I don't know what is.

This is a bit rich!

Aguero is a phenomenal striker. He has one major problem; he spends almost as much time injured as he does fit.

The media is getting it wrong...probably more likely than my theory.

It does seem that way but if you look at our recent transfer dealings, they have by and large appeared to be shrewd. Wouldn't it be odd if a bunch of fans on a forum (including me) without the all the facts think "that's a ridiculously low price" and there wasn't more to it? My guess is that there is a clear strategy in place which involves favourable buy-back clauses and rights of first refusal. Not saying I've got inside info, but...

Then again, maybe it's just one woman on the end of a phone rather than a team including top lawyers and experienced negotiators. "Yeah, £5m sounds about right. Never seen him play to be honest. Probably ****."

I will concede, it does seem low price tag. To me that would indicate a pretty favourable buy-back and/or sell-on clause. I think she probably knows what she's doing!

The things you don't know about this include: the player's reasons for leaving the club; the club's reasons for selling the player; and the club's criteria/expectations in relation to keeping/selling academy players. Given that you know so little about it your knee-jerk reaction is unwarranted and the sort of thing Prescott (quite rightly) gets criticised for.

This transfer window is boring. Please can we get back to the grown men acting like pre-pubescent teenagers? It's far more entertaining!

And to think...if you had control of the purse strings we would have put in an offer for 100 million before the transfer window opened!

Yeah, but I had no chance of topping that!

He actually IS standing in the wrong places. (Has someone already made that joke?)

Could be nothing, he could turn round and apologise tomorrow. Let's wait and see. Diego...Diego..Di.....GREEDY TW@
