Unlikely we really pleaded poverty clubs try to get discounts all the time, even less likely Atletico are dumb enough to believe we are that broke. More likely Atletico were hoping we'd be going for Aouar instead of Partey so they wouldn't have to replace him with Roca who's now gone to Bayern

If AFCBell is to be believed (I mean obviously he knows what's going on), we have always planned to activate his release clause. I doubt we went in for Aouar for fun, so there's only one reason why we are activating it so late instead of at the start of the window.

There's virtually no upside to triggering it early other than having more time to bed him in. You keep negotiating, hoping Atletico will budge at some point and when they you realise they don't you pay the clause. It's not even a particularly high clause and the player hinted several times he wanted to come to us bloke was criminally underpaid. Atletico kept bluffing now they're in public with their pants full of shit of course they'll try and spin it some way.

Willock joins QPR. Will be interesting to see how he does there.

Chris Willock, not Joe Willock.

I was looking forward to seeing him paired with Partey and +1. Great he finally gets an opportunity to get more minutes (you'd hope) some where else.

The Saliba loan quest is a true bummer

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Dream lives then. Should have questioned Clrnc's shithousery given it was fucking QPR.

That Chris Willock news got me this afternoon too 😆

Clrnc right now:

? | Memphis Depay is staying at Lyon, according to RMC - Barcelona just told OL they would not be completing the deal - talks had got to the stage where Lyon had got so far as to send over the documentation to complete the agreement.

Meanwhile in paris.....

Depay can negotiate a bosman in 3 months

Rene-Adelaide also snubbed Hertha

Means Lyon have fairly big loss and look (so far) unlikely to make CL next season

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Clrnc are you gonna apologise for the mess you've caused or what? 😆

I remember he was rated higher than Joe. His career is absolutely gone to shit after leaving us, well done to whoever who advised him there. Same went for Amaechi

I'd like to see Saka play in central midfield. Think that would get the best out of him (quick passing, good movement off the ball, and can make deep runs in behind and between lines).

Yeah I feel that’s where he should play too. Excellent player with a bit of everything in his locker

Pepe LeFrits

Poor Jack, only managed 18 games in 2 years at WHU. His career has been absolutely obliterated by injuries; he's still only 28!

I hope they go bust.

Not so much for not accepting our bid, that's well within their right, but for all the public shenanigans, deadlines and BS they put out in the process. They can get fucked.

Go back in Jan when they are on their knees.

GooneriC

Think we won't be the only ones in Jan if they badly need to sell. I think that ship has sailed now.

arsedocmd

Still the one link, it said Inter are offering him around. Nothing about us.
