He's mistaken if he thinks he'll get a bigger salary than Villa.

Villa are mistaken if they think they're getting £25m.

quote sounds like Roma are trying to lower the fee. We will get more money selling him to an English team

and the big transfer fees people were saying we would get before the window started are not looking likely

Yes, no one has any money.

So selling to teams with money like Newcastle should be taken advantage of... :(

If Roma have no money, then there will be a significant amount of add-ons included if we end up accepting a lower fee.  Either that or they can always sell one of their star players.

Speak for yourself. I'm on £400k a week.

I think some power needs to go back to clubs or it'll only accelerate the end of football when streaming money becomes a huge issue. Too much money leaving the game to agents. Don't particularly mind the mental wages for the best players in the world.  They can do things no one else can.

It's the same everywhere though. There are always "specialists" in some area who focus on that area and blag their way through life. Be it construction, finance or whatever else.

In football, it's the agents. After all...

I mean...  There was a photo of Stewart Downing with Andy Caroll on holiday together holding a Liverpool scarf in a bar a month before he signed for them.  It's been going on forever... 

Our former chairman tried it back in 1990, on his yacht, with Steve Bull, but he didn't quite get the hang of it:rolleyes::

‘‘I met Doug Ellis when he was at the World Cup in 1990. He said to me ‘Steve we are going to come in for you one day’. I said ‘okay, you have only got to come in mate’ but he never did. I could never understand why".

So in theory if Luiz goes (as much as I don't want that to happen) who can we get...

I heard Sangare mentioned yet he seems more defensive...

Do McGinn and Sanson compete for one spot to support J.Ramsey?

Surely we have to replace Luiz?

Don't see the issue with it myself. A recruiter/company is free to contact you and ask you to join such and such a company, tell you of the benefits, give you a rough estimate of what you'll earn. You already have a contract with your current employer. Why should it be any different in football? Just because they are a higher valued asset (in monetary terms) than you or I?

Depends on the terms in their contracts...  I'm guessing player power has grown over the past 25 years and the clubs can't take advantage of players the same way they have in the past with clauses preventing this sort of thing from happening again...  Either that or there was a lawsuit regarding the legality of the clause to begin with.

The £30M figure for Conor Gallagher has come from Ashley Preece, he's quoted as saying that...

'Aston Villa are aware of Conor Gallagher's situation with the 22-year old expected to fetch a fee of around £30m if he leaves Chelsea'.

I think he's stating the obvious in saying that we are aware of his situation, and the £30M fee is just guesswork.
