Getting fleeced for an average player. 
 

Samu at least had massive potential. 

Felix is better than your shitty Gallagher

Giving them Gallagher for 30m is ripping them off? Some guy from them failed a medical and now we are expected to bend over and do what they say? Just because they offer Felix doesn't mean we have to take it, if they want Gallagher pay up or walk away, shouldn't be player for player.

I don't even think he had a medical problem this is just bullshit invented because they realized in the 12th hour he sucks and we have 5 young strikers which made zero sense. 

Also let's not pretend the bullshit released that we didn't want to sell Gallagher within the league and accepted lower amount from Atletico, Gallagher didn't wanna stay in the PL and now they are desperately trying to shift him anywhere so they don't lose him for free.

It has to be said, this is, as per most of Clearlake's business in the transfer window, an absolute shit show.

They are nothing more than business people, and they continue to fail in that regard.

I would have loved to have followed their journey since they took over the Dodgers.

At first it was all a thrill when these clowns came to town but now it’s gone beyond embarrassing.

They’ve been the most successful team in baseball since they took over.

I’ll wait until the end of this week before I have a go at them. If the Gallagher deal collapses after he was essentially unveiled as an Atleti player then they deserve every bit of shit coming their way.

How is that their fault they found issues with Samu medical and tried to change the terms accordingly. The fact that Atletico is broke and have Conor as an after thought has nothing to do with us deciding we don’t need Samu. Who by the way was a player none of us actually wanted.

I’m still not sure it has been confirmed that it was a medical issue with Samu. I think someone at the club changed their mind last minute after meeting with Jorge Mendes and being made aware that Felix could be had instead. 

The fact that Samu was already being linked to a move to a number of other clubs the minute his move here collapsed tells you that any injury concerns are minor.

Their so called "project" is going to stop enticing players very soon (if it hasn't already).

To be honest, I meant aside from results. According to a handful who have written here, they take a similar scattergun technique. However, as someone with minimal familiarity of the sport, the skill pool is small when compared to football.

Boehly's odd words irritated me from the minute he took ownership. Unless something has changed, he understands very little about the sport and is attempting to utilise the same strategy, expecting similar results. How's it working out?

[bluesman2610 1,430]

This reminds me of what we don’t get from either Sterling or Mudryk. It’s actually shocking how dead our LW is.

No it just means they too haven’t done any medical who is to say they don’t find what we did. Clearly they found something enough to try and change the contract terms.

They don't give a shit about positions they just want to find players so they can flip for profit, who by the way suck even at that, they we're gonna buy Shamu for 35m and actually expected to make a profit on that donkey.

What a shame Clearlake want an ideal scenario for the club. Sell Gallagher, buy no one.

BREAKING: Désiré Doué has decided to join Paris Saint-Germain!

After being 100% focused on Olympics, he has made his decision: it’s PSG.

Nasser Al Khelaifi, Luis Campos, Luis Enrique all involved for PSG.

Final details to be clarified soon then… here we go!

 

Fabrizio Romano

 

😵‍💫😭😟

ffs

PSG have taken (or have developed), in Warren Zaïre-Emery's case) so so many targets of mine over the past 4 or so years

Désiré Doué
Marquinhos (he almost left a few years back)
Willian Pacho
Milan Skriniar (free transfer)
Nuno Mendes 
Achraf Hakimi 
João Neves 
Manuel Ugarte (still think he would have fit in well here)
Gabriel Moscardo
Warren Zaïre-Emery 
Vitinha  
Carlos Soler 
Bradley Barcola
Ousmane Dembélé

When Salah was linked with Saudi move I thought for sure Neto would be replacement. And he was linked with them. 

yes, I thought for sure they would grab one of these lefty RWers

Ousmane Dembélé
Michael Olise 
Pedro Neto
Leroy Sané
Dejan Kulusevski 
Moussa Diaby 
Savinho  
Raphinha
Takefusa Kubo
Jarrod Bowen
Arda Güler 
Johan Bakayoko 
Nico González

 

still may try for one of the remaining ones (Kubo in bold is most likely I wager)

Put it this way, I highly doubt Samu will be moving to any of the PL's top 6.   City/Liverpool/United/Spurs/Newcastle are set at striker and I don't think Samu fits with Arteta's game plan at this stage of his development.

The only other factor in this....how desperate Napoli are in terms of selling Osimhen to satisfy Conte's requirements.....and the fact that Conte specifically asked for Lukaku as his striker. 

Will be interesting to see what happens in the next week or so.
