So sky sources say "talks have broken down between Everton and Swansea"

Another sky source says the 2 clubs are still trying to find a resolution, and the deal is not off.

At the end of the day we don't know which is the right one, the first sky sources, or the second sky source. Obviously you believe the second sky source, and state them as facts to have a go at the bedwetters when you don't actually know for a fact which source is right.

It means one SKY SOURCE has read the Telegraph, and the other SKY SOURCE has read Wales Online.

Or the same SKY SOURCE has read both.
 
For the record, I think 45 million for Siggy is too much, by about 10 million. That being said, I think it is underestimated how important this transfer negotiation is for ALL of our future ones.

We stared out this window showing we can move fast for the players we want. Now we have a team that is trying to get us to pay an outrageous price, assuming that we will do and pay whatever for the player we want. Even if it is weeks later than we want, sticking to our position and not budging at this point will save us in every future negotiation and set us on a much better path. Why? Because if we give in and give full price now, every other team we will negotiate with here on out will not only try to force us to well overpay beyond what they would accept, but will drag it out thus slowing down any transfers greatly. If we dont give in, every other team will take notice, and will not see the point of dragging things out, and know that when we say "Final offer" we mean it.

Dont underestimate how many teams we will deal with in the future are paying attention to how we treat this from here on out.

Four years and twice the player. Unless Gylfi is central.

Klaassen -- Schneiderlin -- Sigurdsson
Rooney--------------------------------Lookman
​
Davies and Gana rotation with Sigurdsson replacing Lookman?

That's what id do...but if hes on the left id have Lookman there instead or Draxler of course if Lookman isn't going to play

Make up what you want but we have dropped our asking price for Barkley in desperation to get money to pay the asking price for Siggs
