John Stones transfer saga

[Tree13]

How? He can refuse to play can he?

He's contractually employed by the club as a football player. If he refuses to play the club has the option to fine him his entire wage. And they bloody well should.

Absolutely do not sell. Reject any transfer request, reject any bid.

 

[Azzurri]

I did say.

Absolutely gutted.

 

[matty1878]

Well there hasn't been. I even rang the club and asked. Its probably true but the fact is that it hasn't been officially confirmed.

Mate he's getting sold

 

[BrianSwan]

Players leave. Get over it.

We lost Sinclair, Allen, Vorm, Davies, Sigurdsson, Bony and we are stronger than ever. If you don't replace well, it's your fault. Look how Atletico and Sevilla have done after constantly selling players.

 

[Jags..class]

Their is no way he's getting sold for that amount, I wouldnt be to worried about that

Chelsea won't pay over 30 million. He is the next England captain, a class act. He will be worth 60 million next season. Hope our board know thia

 

[marty mcfly]

Well see. He only bought Alcaraz as a saftey buy as we were light at the back. He soon got rid.

He only got rid because the fans forced him to. If the fans hadn't we would have had Alcaraz for another season.

Not arsed. Promote Browning, finish 15th, don't care, you can't let a domestic rival do this to your club.

We aren't West Brom. Or at least we shouldn't be.

West Brom going about all this better than us it has to be said.

 

[Tubey]

This is very true. But we can show a bit of spine and just say sorry John you're contracted to us, play your heart out for us, enjoy the Euro's and then next summer we can talk.

You would have thought we'd have had that talk with him if we were serious about keeping him.

The fact he's handed in a transfer request (allegedly) tells me everything about this board.

 

[kenada_blue]

Preserve the dignity of your club and do what Liverpool did with Suarez. Relegate him to the reserves if need be - we simply cannot sell now and come out of it as anything other than a complete joke.

Come on. Fume all you want but that's just daft.

 

[Steak Bake]

Don't give a [Poor language removed] if he wants to go or stay. No player is loyal, we all learned that with Rooney. Stones signed a new contract last season and should honour it until a club offer us 40 million.

You can't blame the players though. Imagine if Rooney had stayed, how many trophies would he have won here?

Until our owner sells us and we get a bigger stadium, we will always lose our best players to the likes of Chelsea!

 

[deipnosophist]

Send him to Dynamo in a straight swap for Yarmolenko. See how he fares when a part-time Kiev plummer takes a liking to one of his knees.

...plumber...

 

[EFC85]

Disappointed but not incredibly surprised. Makes sense with the reports of Chelsea looking elsewhere, screams of them telling him to make something happen.

If Jonny Evans is starting at CB for us at any point in the next month the club have completely failed.

 

[matty1878]

This is very true. But we can show a bit of spine and just say sorry John you're contracted to us, play your heart out for us, enjoy the Euro's and then next summer we can talk.

It won't happen. Kenwright will say kak like he's begged me to go etc.

 

[DualityNSNO]

West Brom going about all this better than us it has to be said.

Shocker innit?

Nah it's not. Sadly.

Nothing confirmed by club.............
