I thought he was open to it but was waiting on an offer from somewhere else i.e. Real Madrid or Chelsea?At the end of the day it's still up to the player, and he doesn't want to play for us.

Hours.But but but I thought Chelsea would wrap this up in a matter of days?
That's how I read it and as it stands it appears no CL teams want him, certainly not want him enough to buy him anyway.I thought he was open to it but was waiting on an offer from somewhere else i.e. Real Madrid or Chelsea?
No it doesn't mate. Romero is top class and will show that once he's settled in and Sanchez and Dier regardless of their pervious form have both been brilliant so far this season. Alongside Romero, I feel both would up their games even more so I feel we're covered in that area with Rodon and Tanganga as fall back options if we have injuries. I can tell you for a fact that we won't be going out spending €50m on a CB when we have far more pressing matters.Still think this might have legs - small ones - but if he wants to leave and we believe what we were told about having a deal in place it could happen very quickly.
cue the optimistic ratings ??

Not just for us either.Herc says this isn’t happening in the ITK thread
This hasn’t and was never going to happen as soon as he rejected us for CL footballHerc says this isn’t happening in the ITK thread

No they didn't. Kounde wanted a Champions League club.Well Chelsea still got something out of this failed pursuit - they successfully blocked us from signing a key target (hardly the first time). So in that respect I'm sure they'll consider it was worth it.
As good as Sanchez has been of late, Kounde would have struck a far better balance as partner for Romero. With his strong press-resistance and ability to carry the ball out of defence he'd have brought us something we lack. But ah well, I am at least happy with our solidity now, unlike last season.
He's talking about Martinez

then he is in the wrong thread.
He also mentions Koude in the second paragraph
So he would have waited for another club any way until the final week/days and we would have been his fall back option right about now. Whether they were in for him or not, he didn't want us and would have made us wait regardless.Reports indicated that he would be interested if no CL club was interested. Had Chelsea never entered the scene, maybe he would have been interested.
Irrelevant now, as Sanchez has proven himself.
