You're hitting top form today Dave.

Pity it's in wrong thread like.

The transfer window soap opera has got peak irritation with this one. At least grab that lad fro Nice.

Other deals (apart from perhaps the Sandro deal) had been completed much quicker than this.

There is something significant holding this up

I suspect it's because Swansea want X and Everton only want to pay Y.

Both clubs sitting on their hands valuation wise. Can't think of anything more significant than valuation.

With us dragging our feet to get it across the line it would not surprise me if another club tried to swoop last minute.

It's called £50million.

Wouldn't any player be "see how it goes"? Football isn't played with valuations

I never said it was

It's going on a bit too long though - you'd think neither club would want to take this so close to the start of the season - wonder what's going on....

You're more obsessed with net spend than what's on the pitch

Yep of course there is, Swansea dont want to sell and if they do its for £50m, we have bid less, therefore they dont have to sell. Sell on fees, signing on fees, agents fees, length of contract, player comforts (housing etc) are all factors.

I think Swansea will want it done shortly so they can buy some replacement players.

Alright mate, if you think we're the only club speaking to Swansea
