I just recall reading it somewhere reliable.
And besides, Lookman is the type of players we really should be retaining, hes young, English and has a degree of talent.
You have another 25 players or so to choose from.
I'm hopeing that this the window that makes other teams realise that if a deal doesn't suit us we will walk away from it.
Our price for gana wasn't met, he didn't go. Batshuayi price was to high, we walked away.
If this was last season we'd of bought batshuayi for about 40m on 200k a week and sold gana for 18m.
I'm gutted we didn't get anyone in but I can see why we didn't.

So as a Brand fan.....do you expect us to agree deals to sell the likes of Bolasie Stek Cuco Schneiderlin Tosun and Niasse in the summer?
Is it possible we might start next season with them still in the squad or only on loan?
I can understand not being able to shift them out in his first summer and January I dont care about but surely we should see at least 3 of those sold...out the door...ejected....booted out....whatever...just gone!?
Somebody please reassure me all of them will be gone.
I cant answer that mate, maybe in the Summer we will lower our demands for say the likes of Tosun, he will be worth "less" on our books, hopefully Niasse bundles a few goals in and keeps Cardiff up, maybe snides will fancy a game of footy instead of sitting on our bench and so on.
Look its really not ideal, we have shifted a load of players, but the majority will return, will we find buyers? For most of them, probably not really, they have massive contracts, which they really dont want to give up and nobody else will match, so I honestly expect most to see out their contracts on loan.
Hes certainly got his work cut out in the summer, thats for damn sure, short term he has got us some wages back for players that would have just sat at FF for 6 months, earning ROUGHLY around 50m in wages, instead we probably get to claw back 20% or so of that and have a manageable squad, again its not ideal, but something is always better than nothing. And its not like we are the only club that has kept its wallet in its pocket this window.

Our crap players are like crap second hand cars.
If you own an old banger that you paid a lot more for than you should have done a few years ago and now doesn't run very well, is temperamental and costs a kings ransom to run, should I be suprised if nobody wants to buy it even if I put it on Ebay for 50 quid???
2-3 more yrs of those players on the books.....purely because of the stupidly high wages and lengthy contracts thrown at them.
Anybody who ever says "it's not your money" should be reminded of this period in the club's history. Because even if we can't change anything it bloody does matter how much they spend on fees, wages and how many years they sign them up for. These details have done for clubs in the past.
I honestly said its not your money over and over again when people were complaining about the fee for Iceland.
He didn’t buy any of those players though. How is it his fault if we can’t shift them on due to poor decisions from people that came before him? He didn’t offer them huge wages and way over pay for them.

Ha
I was just thinking I'd like to see some vaulting from the transfer thread for THAT window when loads were getting giddy over us having cash.
I wasnt so optimistic, but I didn't expect it would hamstring us this badly.
Koemageddon indeed
You is responding to something I've not said
It wouldnt have if we would have bought good or even decent players, but we mostly bought complete tosh sadly.
The main reason I wasn't getting carried away was because I wanted Koeman out from the moment he signed the contract. Didn't trust him one bit. We finally get money and we had two clowns running the show.
Expectations lowered now until 2021 when I will celebrate Bolasies departure
Mixed for me. Glad we stayed away from ins.
But I think we failed massively on outs, how may players could have at least been loaned out that are utterly useless and can’t make the first team squad on a match day.
Not one permanent out of meaning or significance.
Poor and disappointing on outs.
Rinse and repeat in the summer, with so many of these players more then likely returning to the club.

It never went to £25m PLUS add ons
And even then if we sold him for £25m rising to £30m It’s still a poor deal considering he could be worth double that in two years.
Even so. We would still get £25m now for him given solanke fee
