Watching the clusterfuck that is Sky Sports News Transfer Show and the general report seems to be that we told Sporting what we were willing to pay, which didn't match their valuation, and that we're unlikely to return with a new offer sooooooo
There should be no melt downs regarding transfers.
Apparently Bruno has Jorge Mendes as his agent.
This just got a lot more interesting.
“We are not a club that is going to make big transfers”
Slightly worrying.
Didn't Fernandes just sign a new contract? That took us out of the Frenandes equation then surely.
We weren't allowed to sign them, Sammy said they weren't good enoughBig means £70m+ fees, which yes, we obviously won’t be spending.
That doesn’t mean we can’t sign good players, we just need to be bolder in signing young talents. We had opportunities to sign Maddison, De Jong, Grealish etc and let them slip away. We need to buy these players a year before their value skyrockets, not a year after.
Poch was seemingly very picky about signings and combined with Levy’s penny pinching it ended up a disaster the last two years. For Mou to succeed here him and Levy have to make more forceful decisions on transfers when younger talents emerge. If we think they have the quality then buy them ASAP before someone else does. Just think where we could have been if we’d signed Maddison or Grealish a year ago...

Any reports on this old chap?
