For those likening the situation with Traore and Kane, dfference is we're willing to meet a decent valuation for Traore, City wasn't meeting our valuation for Kane.
How can that be the case? If we were, we’d have had a bid accepted!

It’s no different

Define decent. It's not for us to dictate what's decent for their player. His worth to them dictates his price.

I thought they didn’t mind the number, just the structure.

We’re also not being overly ****y about it like our sky blue pals.

I mean not really both players values are entirely determined by the club. They are within their right to push for whatever fee they see as reasonable. Personally if I wa a wolves fan I wouldn't want less than 60m for him.

In your opinion, a fan of the buying club. There were also a large number of city fans who thought their valuation of Kane was realistic.

Traore should get Neville to do an interview with him.

But instead of playing golf it could be Neville nervously applying baby oil to him while asking his questions. I imagine it would be kinda like the "body armor" scene in the film Bronson

Couldn't agree more.

He's (seemingly) the managers number 1 target & we should do all we can to get him in.

I know people can say "But NDombele was Poch's number 1 target & look how that's turned out". And they'd have a valid point!

The difference in this instance, is the fact that we know Traore can & will perform in the PL.

We know Traore and the manager get on extremely well & there's very clearly a bond between them. This is something that can't be understated in football. 2 way respect will always reap rewards.

We know Traore adds something we're seemingly lacking.

You know what you're getting with Traore. He wouldn't just be an expensive punt.

Unlike NDombele, who's just been an expensive ****.
Its the football food chain

Ironic.

We have added Romero for the first team over the entire transfer window who is the only likely first team starter. Gill looks a very promising youngster but is unlikely to start many games this season.

I would call that a mess so far, lets not forget how bad we were last season and we cant blame it all on Jose.

I can . He's a chelsea prick.

Re: Emerson (Hercs comment back on Pg 5) Does a loan with an option mean the transfer value is set at the time of the loan agreement or does that get negotiated after then loan is complete?
