Director of Communications:

Fair play to the negotiating team if that's the case, worth the wait.

 

[bizzaro]

I'm waiting on how @davek explain this one.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Mike Brewer would have sorted this a month ago.
"Ow abar £40 million?"
"50"
"45, hold out your hand"

Job done

They've fulled on flap & accepted our original offer. But we had all these fans telling us to just pay the £50m!

Big thanks to the black death there for speeding it along.

We just need him to confirm that Giroud is 100% staying at Arsenal and Van Dijk is joining the RS now.

 

[ad4amt]

who is this fella?
first I heard of this move

all happended under the rader, caught us all by suprise really

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I told you guys it was basically done.

If we do get him it will be the most exciting signing we've made for many a year.

Only 4 midfield players have made more assists in the Premier League than Sigurðsson has over the course of the last three seasons. And only one midfielder has scored more goals than Sigurðsson has over the course of the last three seasons.

One of the best playmakers in the whole of the Premier League.

Swans have acquiesced.

On Everton paying the Spurs sell on clause.



They saw us basically with money to spend and tried to put an unreasonable fee to us.

EFC said no.

This sort of strong negotiating tactic - is in the best interests of the club.

If teams think we are a roll over every player we go for will be over inflated price. Thats not in EFC's interest.

 

[Jib in lad]

That's that then.

 

[The binman chronicles]

I assume the next 48 hours will be critical...

 

[MikeH72]

So hang on, a month after they rejected a £40m bid for their player, we have now signed said player for £40m?

Good deal by the looks of things. But there's absolutely no way you were ITK on this deal Damo.
