Guest av1 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 The bit I have underlined is interesting. BBC Emery on links with Mateo Guendouzi and other targets: "I can't speak about players potentially coming here. With some players, it could be an opportunity to get them if I know them. The club is open to getting more players in the squad. "We have more players with the possibility to leave and if we can do it we can add more players. We want to improve and have better balance in the squad with different profiles." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it is balancing the squad out too - not stockpiling and complying with FFP rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all means nothing if Emery doesn't conduct a "transfer swoop" for his "top target" after "registering a long-term interest". All we need now is for Guendouzi to issue a "come and get me plea" and the dominos will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always makes me laugh that sell to buy is a negative. Its how it should be. But hang on, didnt we just buy without selling one day ago ? I think its having space in the squad rather than not having any money 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then it's a negative cos we can't improve the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means the squad isn't bloated and also fairer for the outgoing players themselves - beats wasting away in the reserves/under23s etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Marseille saying we haven't spoke to them/made a bid.... yet I guess that doesn't mean we aren't talking to him or his agent, tapping up doesn't seem to matter in modern football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Romano saying we’re talking to the player but no bid. I still think Marseilles will ask for too much. Sanson might be key to the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they've given us permission to talk to the player which would be odd if we haven' even bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I thought this to but I think teams don’t care anymore as it’s impossible to police, so they all do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
