How are Arsenal not in hot water over Bruno G.? They have allegedly agreed a 5 year deal with him whilst Newcastle are sitting in the cuck chair.

We had to back off for a similar thing with Olise iirc.

Because they're happy to pay whatever Newcastle asks, whereas we were trying to fish Crystal Palace for a release clause. Olise had a clause/agreement that he could leave if a certain amount was bid, and rather than approach Palace directly we decided to get his agent to disclose it to us.

Agent talk to club all the time, as long as you pay the club the money that they want, they don't care

You're right I forgot about that little detail.

Still feels wrong.

Just seen Bournemouth are in talks with Benfica for Antonio Silva.

Have I missed something here? That’s literally an IDEAL signing and we’re being beaten to the punch by Bloody Bournemouth.

Somebody stop the world, I want to get off.

He's 22. We only sign players 21 and under.

Because the sporting directors are sh*t and the owners are even sh*ttier. The young players they target are mostly sh*t.

We will sign him for twice the price in 3 years. Why we didnt even go for Sensei on a free baffles me.
