I'll be actually quite gutted if Benteke doesn't happen. It's like I never learn, I get attached to a different striker every window and they're all cruelly taken away.
Someone just learnt a new word have they?What a bunch of peons
I think it's some new chavspeak he's learnt in JD Sports when he was buying his reeboks.Someone just learnt a new word have they?
Could it be possible that the Benteke deal hinged on Ade going?
If there is one thing I can ascertain from all this is, 'done' means 'done in principle'...which basically means, by no means done. Presumably all deals are discussed as theoretical proposals, this then substantiates the idea that (from an ITK perspective) deals are 'done' yet (as the media are aware) no formal offer has been made.
Our Daniel seems to be good at putting proposals to clubs for their players and formulating the structure for the deal, but when push comes to shove and a formal offer is required, he goes quiet. Has he seen something bigger and better (and cheaper), did he just baulk at the price...was the price always out of our range and was Levy just putting forward proposals that fitted within our structure in case an agreement could be reached before Villa's deadline?
What ever the reason, it seems that despite most of the details being completed and the deal being done in principle, (done to the point of people believing there should be no reason for it to fail), it failed to happen.
If its any of the above, Villa and Benteke hammered out a deal quickly enough.

Sometimes, just sometimes, I wish we had a rich Arab as chairman.
Cock.I wish it all the time. Once more we see City stealing a march on us. As I say the two best owners in the country are those who run City and Chelsea.
ENIC have done a good job, but no more than that, IMHO. City and Chelsea have been transformed.
