Why would Ross wait, what's the point unless he wants to keep it all quiet like he has so far. If he says the wrong thing, his life will be pretty miserable in Liverpool, so say nothing. The words from Moshiri "he wants to consider his position during the January window" just means he's going to say nothing.........

Not sure why everyone is so eager to get the torches and pitchforks out on the word of Moshiri and Matt Law.

Those farmtools will still be available when all the information is available and in the meantime they can be used protesting about not signing a well known striker ;)

Hell no! We want knee jerk fume and we want it now!
 
Levy texted him.

Ross, listen, Danny again. Stay up there in Scouseland, come to Spurs in January and we'll give you 20K more and a PS4

What terms? Mate, you aren't making sense - if he'd have been 'tapped up', Spurs would know he was 'their man' regardless.

"Spurs can get him cheaper"... well, obviously, but again, that would have been the case when he was tapped up. There would be no reason for him to entertain Chelsea at all if that were the case - tonight simply doesn't happen if the plan all along was for Spurs to nab him in January.

You're right mate. He loves Everton and wants to stay........
 

Tubey said:
It's possible. Incredibly unlikely, but possible. I say unlikely because he agreed terms with Chelsea. At that point, he's accepted that great offer/opportunity and it seems remarkable to me that something would shift his mind to being 'tapped up' by Spurs again in the space of a few hours.

I dunno, he does seem a bit dumb. Not entirely impossible he could be manipulated and coherced right down the line with Chelsea today, lots of pressure from all sides, but in the end it's just not what he wanted. (I don't mean manipulated and coherced into leaving the club in general before people jump on that....just talking about events after Chelsea bid)

I'm not saying that. It's a possibility, but no more so than the possibility that he just wants an open market war for a high signing on fee. I don't think he's been tapped up by any specific club - if anything, I think he and his agent have decided the big payday is there, but Chelsea came knocking this summer and they feared that they had played their hand too early and considered getting out now. Then got cold feet and went back to Plan A.

Either is possible.

Dear god Tubey, what does it take to see through this fella......
 
I reckon this may have something to do with the Moshiri/Usmanov connections with Russia/Abramovich. Chelsea wanted him and where they are friendly with Chelsea it was easy to just refuse to allow us to bid so Barkley didn't have the choice.
