Eastie Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Ideally, we could use the Benteke money to buy Kiyotake and a striker. Indeed, pity bony has moved to Swansea as i think bony and kiyotake would have been superb signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KjParton Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 How exactly has she explained the fact that a week after he was due to sign there is knob all happening on this? I think she's said it takes time for a deal to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she's said it takes time for a deal to be done. Ah I see.... that explains why she said it was a done deal a week ago. That must explain why Whittingham hasn't signed yet as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 How exactly has she explained the fact that a week after he was due to sign there is knob all happening on this? Apparently medicals and work permits take time. We met his release clause last Friday. I think it's all a load of bollocks. Why would the club pick her to release details of a transfer? I are usually very quiet with stuff like this and get transfers done VERY quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KjParton Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) Apparently there's a "link" between the new Asia TV deal and signing an Asian based player. Edited July 12, 2013 by KjParton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyClarke Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Too expensive, so was a none starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KjParton Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 €8.5m too expensive? Considering we spent £7m on Benteke I wouldn't say €8.5m is too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 €8.5m too expensive? Considering we spent £7m on Benteke I wouldn't say €8.5m is too expensive. They rejected it mate. The fee they want was too expensive so we have moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyClarke Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm not going into the hows or whys but they asked, it was too expensive and never went any further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 12, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) No no no... we hit the guy's release clause in his contract.... but they wanted more money so we walked away. Edited July 12, 2013 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjParton Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Shame that we can't afford players over 10m these days. Odd that we spent 7m on Benteke last summer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArteSuave Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 We should get Daniel Levy to tell them to lower their valuation. Failing that we could offer them £2m plus Hutton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyClarke Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 It may be a while before we spend a £7million fee on one player and I am including if Benteke leaves for big money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You aren't the one paying though.... I'm not going into the hows or whys but they asked, it was too expensive and never went any further. Exactly. There was no bid.

Not sure on that , I think if benteke goes lambert may spend £10m on a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
