My thoughts are, West Brom don't tend to play exciting attacking football, I'm confident BTA will be a 20 goal striker with us given enough game time.

I can't see sporting bunging us whatever it was if they aren't fairly sure they have a sale.

We will play a high intensity game with rotation around 60 minutes most games I think. Some will play the 90 but will benefit from lesser minutes in the next game

Looks like the Stamenic episode taught us something positive

Some doubt he was at their game now

Here's a thought. Gyokeres to Arsenal or Liverpool for 80M Haji Wright to Sporting Lisbon for 20M+ That would bring us nearly 30M Just my imagination running away.

Based purely on Wright's injury and missing most of the pre-season, he will probably not start against Stoke, but will likely play some part off the bench.

Wow, sounds serious

MSN also now saying it's 2.5M (3M euros) just to lower to 10% https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/arsenal-handed-major-boost-in-viktor-gyokeres-chase-as-sporting-cp-alter-transfer-clause/ar-BB1qOQOJ

The problem is, it's hard to know what is inaccurate reporting, it probably all is.

No one knows what the exact amount is, as far as I can see. Mirror are saying thay are paying us 2M just to lower the sell-on deal, https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/arsenal-transfers-viktor-gyokeres-clause-33354870 Another web site saying it's 2.5M to be paid in two...

At least we have a better idea what the original wording meant.

spot on, I reckon

It's possible we didn't have a choice. Remember the original wording, 15% that can be reduced to 10% at Sporting's discretion, or similar wording.

Wasn't that Southampton as well? Maybe they should sack their doctor

Last week there was a headline saying "Coventry City to meet Callum O'Hare again with midfielder set to join Championship rivals" If I didn't know better I would have thought we were having another attempt to sign him. Reading the text it was just saying the obvious, that we will be playing...

In spite of what the OP said, most of which I agree with, I don't see this season as make or break for MR. I genuinely think, barring a disasterous run, that this is a 5 year plan which will be judged at the end of that period.

It's all very odd really, I don't think any of us realised what we had when DK took over, or what might be coming. I think we are getting some financial backing from somewhere.

It amazes me how many footballers on the verge of a transfer go down with a minor injury. The negotiations must be tougher that I thought.
