So this fell through and Lo Celso is only a loan. Is it one with an obligation to buy?

Shit shucks. It was a humiliating ordeal to be put through and yanked back out of. He's right to be fuming.

This isn’t the first time or last we look silly attempting deals not possible. Utd couldn’t do it and they are a financial monster .

Anytime we try such stupidity in future we should call it the Dybala



The joke of it all we all knew this wasn’t going to happen

Rubbish. It's been known for days that the problem was with the owners of the image rights and one or two greedy agents who also had rights to a cut. The personal terms were agreed and the fee was agreed. There's nothing Juventus, Man Utd or Spurs could have done to force the other parties to co-operate or compromise.

Dybala should have been more circumspect (and perhaps less greedy himself) when deciding to licence his image rights. In the longer term, he fucked up his own transfer.

We have bought 3 quality players and held onto our star players and still we have "fans" making out we are stupid and a joke. Truly beyond pathetic.

Note: aware Lo Celso is a loan.

I'm wondering why the OS had a story on Lo Celso about 20 minutes after the deal was agreed, but they have relied solely on Twitter to announce Sessegnon.

What’s wow about it. Players with third party ownerships are always problematic why leave such deals late. If we were serious imo this deal would have started much earlier in the window.
He only became available very late in the window where in my opinion we did all we could to get him. Understand you cynicism but I think on this occasion you may be wrong

Perhaps with your vast knowledge of transfers you could tell us exactly when we started working on this, 'cos it's odds on it was long before you think it is.
