Link?Tbf plenty of people were saying we should accept less than €15m and repeating the Romano line that we were asking too much for him.
Try looking back. Sounds like you're in for a big surprise.At what point did anyone think we would get less than £15m for Gyokere?

Don't hold your breathLink me
reminds me of rubbish going out shirts and shoesSmells alright though
Yet again here we go again.Do you really think we've signed KKH as back up to MvE ?
He's been signed because after MvE he's about as good as there is out there at our level .
Milan is going , we just need King to work his bargaining magic
Link?
The sooner Gyokeres fucks off the better. I know Gyokeres is selfish and the world revolves around him but thinking him and his agent can dictate the fee is utter narcissism.
I wish the useless Swedish twat would hurry up and fuck off

Yeah not a massive fan of pretending we don’t know TBH. Vik says it, the ITKs say it, every newspaper says it. At some point if it walks like a Doug and looks like a Doug, it’s a Doug.
Ive backed King on various other things, I just think he’s a noob owner with a singular focus on squeezing every penny and doesn’t realise the realities of transfers. Like Sisu when they first came in and fucked up the likes of Westwood.
£17m is a very fair price for Vik. We clearly don’t have the interest at £20m. It’s very noble to try and get as much as possible but we are skint and have a squad that desperately needs players. I just think he’s playing this badly.

So it’s only 18M€ upfront so about £15m
If Sporting take their ball home for good then your next bidder offers less if they've got any sense. Say £15m
Exactly. A real risk that the price will drop if someone plays hardball.
Just take the money
Contrary to what people believe Sporting are the only show in town. We're (Doug) is risking our biggest ever payday as a club by trying to squeeze out am extra few million. Yes thats a great tactic for a couple of weeks, but we fly to fucking Portugal in 4 days with a youth team and 9 first teamers it cannot go on
17 Million quid a 35% sell on for a man who wants out and has only 12 months left is a good enough ( and record for us) payday to rebuild the squad
We need @Winny the Bish and @Tea & Busquets to get there scouting heads on for a right sided player , either a loanee or a European player .
Come on fellas

During the 2023 transfer window, when this forum was in its usual annual summer lunatic asylum holding, there was a lot of discussion on the Gyökeres thread.
If you want some late night reading, between page 60-85 there are a lot of people devaluating his transfer fee. There were only a couple of people saying that sort of figure you quoted, (I seem to remember 7-10 million from a few - including Simon Gilbert) but a good many who thought he would, and should, go for significantly under 20, and knocked anyone down who thought otherwise.
Most of the conversation was centered around him not having any interest and that we should sell him for the first possible bid - because we wouldn't get anything better and our value of him was too high.
When of course that turned out incorrect, it saw a lot of bruised egos. The chap from kenilworth, and some of the usual contrarians on this forum didn't have their best days in the sun, you could say. That thread should be in the SBT hall of fame really, as it has everything - charity bets, allegations of Japanese xenophobia, and a usual smothering of doubling down when it all went horribly wrong.
It really is a classic.
I need to take a deeper look for more options but Lamine Cisse at Bastia is a very fun player who would be at the top of my shortlist. 22yo, 9G5A in Ligue 2 last season.
Played all across the front 3, not 100% sure if RW is his best position. Very quick and a good dribbler. Stoke have apparently just had a bid rejected.
Pretty certain we'd get cover in for KKH in that scenarios.Problem we have if Milan goes is we are back to square one at RB. One player to cover a whole season
Its *almost* like the majority of fans know absolutely FUCK ALL about the actual reality of football finances and transfer negotiations and should shut the fuck up when auctioning off our best players to the lowest bidders eyHonestly thought I’d typed £15m but I hadn’t.
In any case the chatter then was about a bid of £17m vs £20m+ so you’re right to call me out.
There are some interesting lines though. And if nothing else, the link shows that Team Gyökeres did exactly the same thing to us and they are doing to Sporting.
No thanksPatrick Bauer experienced CB, apparently we are the favourites to sign him
I hope not. All of our centre halves are much betterPatrick Bauer experienced CB, apparently we are the favourites to sign him
Must of got Spain and Portugal mixed up
Having a medical?
Nearly 33 and made 8 appearances in the last 3 years.Patrick Bauer experienced CB, apparently we are the favourites to sign him
Lery saneNot really, it's not great top to bottom but leagues like that will always have teams at the top that are more attractive than your average Championship outfit. Holland is similar, poor top to bottom but delusional to think PSV, Ajax, Feyenoord wouldn't be more attractive than a Championship team.
that spelling hahaha. are you drunk?Lery sane
