Transfer Rumour Gabriel (Lille)

[ForeverBlue92]

it’s not like we went in a global pandemic or anything.....oh wait

That didnt stop us though mate - it just gave Brands the opportunity to take a gamble in getting the fee lowered.

If he signs on the cheap the gamble has paid off - if not he deserves the criticism that comes with that.

We could have avoided that situation by wrapping the deal up quicker. Not mess around by trying to renegotiate.

You’re trying to argue to entirely separate points to protect our clown DoF for yet another failure.

If it does turn out we messed Lille around then for sure the fault does lie with Brands. Can only hope we have a plan B in place unlike last year when we went all out for Zouma and were left scrambling about for crazy CB loans on deadline day!

yes it did stop us, it stopped literally everything in the world. The world came to a stop because nobody knew what was going to happen

Here is a simple Venn Diagram to show our transfer windows

Got to laugh at you mate, gone to all the time and effort for a few laughs on the internet.

You know the pubs are open don’t you?

took me 2 minutes, if you class that has an effort then it answers why you’re think about the boozer at 3pm

He was in the pub when the idea struck him, he placed his pint in 3 slightly different positions on the table and the venn diagram was born.

You know what there’s a lot of things I agree with you in regards to the footballing side of things.

The issue is I think we are ineptly run and for some reasons you make excuses or just hound people that have made issues with our board etc.

Not related to one of them are you?

You guys realize there are numerous reasons why a transfer hasn’t happened at any given time right? The fact that the only explanation that seems to occur to you is that it’s Brands’ fault seems rather odd.

well on here meltdowns are a frequent thing

Depends how good a player Gabriel is.

If we lose out to him over a few million and he turns into a £50 million+ CB for the Brazilian National Team yes we will look very silly.

Or if he ends up sidestepping the stepping stone club and goes straight to a Champions League club than he looks very sensible

As if anyone other than the clubs , agents & players involved know anything about transfers.
The lads had 5 medicals , been to other clubs training grounds yet no-one has a pic.

We are re-negotiating ? Are we ? ....cos a foriegn journo says so ?
He's waiting on a better offer ?...who says so ?

Absolute tosh.

As I said NO -ONE other than those mentioned know ANYTHING.

But carry on ....Blame the club for penny pinching .
Blame Brands for not signing him sooner.
Cos its just what you do.

You are totally correct.
Contrary to what many keep posting , the club is actually more professionally run that it used to be.
There are no longer leaks , that have harmed our transfer attempts before now.
The reason that there are no rumours , is because we are quite correctly playing our cards close to our chest.

If Utd go pay £90m for Sancho, wonder if that'll stop them. Obviously they'll have the money but may need to shift some to buy him, which may not happen straight away.

Spot on. They will be waiting for potential Smalling and Sanchez deals to go through first.
