£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

[Rudolf Hucker]

Yet we pay 30 mil for Bolasie like money is no object but we haggle over an extra 15 mil for a midfielder who's stats are one of the best in the prem, unbelievable

We overpaid for Bolasie. I don't think overpaying for Sigurdsson makes it right.


Come on Walshy, do your job!!!

We overpaid on bolasie which makes not overpaying on Siguurdson all the more baffling.

We overpaid on bolasie which makes not overpaying on Siguurdson all the more baffling.

The way it was reported on Sky last night didn't show us in a good light by saying the deal was almost done and we pulled the plug by offering the original £40 million, something certainly doesn't seem right after 3 weeks of negotiations.

Paying over 40 million is overpaying

His stats are on par with Ross barkley hes a very good midfielder not worth 50 million though!

This is getting quite tedious now, something not quite right here.

No reason this deal should not have been done, Clement practically admitting weeks ago he was out of the door.

Not looking great, but hopefully just waiting to announce any time now.

 

[D410]

Yes. 100% done

I saw the snapshot before you removed it - I take it that the fella meeting the PL club CEO/CFO was connected to the club.

I wonder if a prelim medical has been done and something has been found, hence the going back to the original £40m (if true)

The crystal maze Everton medical examination found he had a cold in 2009 so Bill's pulled the plug.

Any noooos top booooos

Team played better and the results improved when he was'nt in the team.

Which also coincided with Schneiderlin & Davies coming in, nothing to do with Bolasie being out.

I'm getting the distinct impression that there are elements within the media who would like to see this deal for Sigurdsson collapse - and whilst I'm not claiming to be ITK, I feel that irrespective of whatever has been the cause of it not coming to fruition as yet, I am certain in my own mind it will happen before the end of the transfer deadline.

It's possible that the higher bid was made on the proviso that the deal was done before the date for player registration for the next round of the Europa League. Once that had passed - which it now has - we would revert to the original £40 million bid. I'm guessing that the revelation that we've now gone back to our original bid has come from the Swansea end, which would tie in with this. I think the ball is firmly in Swansea's court on this, if they want to sell, fine, if not we move on.

My ma's on holiday with my sister in Melbourne at the present. She's quite elderly (85), but still has a huge zest for life in her. She's discovered Whatsapp, and every 10 minutes my phone pings with one of her incoming messages telling me what's she's doing, sending photos etc...quite cute really.

Nothing cute about Melbourne mate, too many Walkers and far too cold

 

[royalbalou]

Move on, £50m buys you quality...and supposedly Walsh is good at finding it
