Imagine if we had lost. Shambles of a decision.

Proper belter

He could arguably do the same job Lavia could, but we can’t run him into the ground again he will break

Yep pretty much. Usually goes through though. Relatively rare a player refuses, less rare terms can’t be agreed but still unlikely. He could also fail the medical or agents could start demanding extra cash. I’ve no reason to believe any of things could happen.

He needs to agree personal terms. Ornstein saying formality would suggest they know what he is asking for and it’s within our pay structure, and that he would be happy to join us. He could say no.

A wiser move for the immediate impact that we need. Though he has been angling for a move for a while and not covering himself in glory through it.

Stop fannying about and get it done if he’s the right player

I’m certainly not critiquing your efforts and welcome all speculation

If I’m reading the tiering correctly, this is speculation in its purest form

Never heard of Andre, sounds great.

Also £40m rejected so we try £41m…? Schmadtke on fire.
