£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

This is directly from the UEFA Europa League rules:

http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles.../Regulations/02/46/71/42/2467142_DOWNLOAD.pdf

Article 42.07 – We basically need him signed before 24:00 on the 7th of August so that he's eligible for the Split game.

The 8th of August it is then.

We need to get this done in time to register him for the match against Split. If the team who started against Ružomberok on Thursday plays against Split I don't think we will qualify for the group stages.

We have to take the Europa League seriously this season. Every other team in the league has one crack at qualifying for the Champions League we potentially have two. Don't mess it up.

 

[Bebeto]

Surely we must be either struggling to get the funds together or another team is competing for the player so he is delaying things in purpose.

Don't think it's down to the funds mate, just a case of us not wanting to pay what Swansea want, which makes sense if we've got a valuation in mind of what we think he's worth.

I think that neither of the above apply
We have the money , Siggy wants us
Swansea playing hardball and so are we

 

[MikeH72]

Has anyone ever been that impressed when he's played against us? I can't remembering him doing much or standing out.

Twisted Jagielka inside out at Goodison to win the penalty which he scored last season. Set up Llorente with a cross at their place.

Must try harder

Then we'll be about £30m apart in valuations.

You should try seeing a psychiatrist then finners

 

[Gwaters]

Do you think we will get to 1000 pages on this...?

 

[fandjango]

Such as ??.... come on Finners give me hope

 

[Brisan123]

As to the 1000 pages

Not unless @davek
visits this thread over the weekend
In my definitely not in the know opinion Ronko will want it done in time to register him for the ELplay off so I think he will get his wish and the thread will be obsolete by tues
Just a hunch so no need to call @orly

 

[hoppy]

thought we had agreed a fee with Swansea for Siggy lots of people on twitter saying so what is the hold up
