I’m probably old skool like you. I always thought you weren’t allowed to speak to a player until a fee had been agreed. I think it was a gentleman’s agreement between clubs. Same thing regarding transfer requests. If a player put in a request, especially after he received his loyalty bonus, then he wouldn’t play for the club again. Times have changed I guess.

Couple of nuances here lads; what do you think it’s the job of agents to do. A club cannot directly talk to another player, but agents will surely meet and discuss before anything formal progresses. That’s very high level discussions though, like being open to moving to the club.

Sky Italy reporting that Dybala is more likely wanting to go to France than England. Okay (y)

If it’s a marquee signing we want, it doesn’t come much bigger than this. Fingers, toes, everything crossed... :)

I hope I’m wrong but leaving it this late has ‘we tried but couldn’t get it over the line in time’ kinda thing.

Been here too many times before that it’s getting very long in the tooth.

This guy and GLC- two key players for Argentina over the next 5-8 years at our fucking club. Throw in Foyth and Gazzaniga and Poch and that’s some serious Latin hunk of a team

I get suspicious that it’s all an attempt to save face and there’s no real intent from Levy and co to actually sign the players but rather just to keep the fans off his back because it looked like he tried. If we end tomorrow with no one or just Sess then I’ll really start to believe that’s what he’s doing.

You honestly think they would go to all this trouble and submit muti million pound bids just so some fans don't moan?
