£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

Clicked on that hoping it'd play

You were hoping, I was praying

Oh.



... oh.

Had to jinx it didn't you Tubes?

I feel like the second bid was good enough. However, if Swansea want to stick to the £50 million I'd move on. I like Gylfi but feel like it's getting too pricey now for what he will give in return. Can pick up two players from another league for that price to play the same role. Oh well, I'm not in charge so whatever.

Just get it sorted.

Where's the Arteta money, Bill?

In all fairness, credit to Swansea for standing firm and refusing to sell their best player unless we pay top dollar.

Just buy an ace striker instead, he's really not worth it.

 

[Mozza1987]

He is a great player but there is no way we should be paying £50 million.

Remember when the Siggy for Barkley swap was mentioned in Jim Whites jaw dropping news on talkSPORT and we wer all fuming saying no chance.

Little did we know 2 weeks later we would have a 45m bid from Swansea rejected and a valuation of 17m from Spurs for Barkley.

Joke

They are down if he goes. Feel a bit sorry for him as his one goal there is to stay in the league. He should have left last summer when we showed interest but he signed a new deal.

For the same amount of money ??????
He's injured as well

Who said the same money?

We have apparently offered 45 + for Sigurdsson.

We will re coup a huge chunk of that from Barkley going. Regardless of him missing the first couple of games.

Loving the business Everton are doing, but it's the same as isn't it? Spending player sales money/tv money. The only way Everton will be seen as an immediate threat to the elite, is when the billionaire starts pumping his own money into the team.

IS this guy Swanson itk?

 

[ProZ]

Although Swansea say they won't be bullied in the market, I don't be thinking we should be either.

If other clubs see we are getting bent over by Swansea then they will also think they can follow suit.

We must show that we can walk away from deals.

 

[BlueShark]

Fair play to Swansea for steadfastly sticking to their valuation of a player they can ill afford to lose.

I'd love to see him here but am in agreement with those saying enough is enough now....walk away.
