Haggle for month, see price go up successively then manage to get 1 million euro off the last asking price.

Either way, I'm excited about this signing and at least no one can call him the 100 million euro man I suppose.
 
I feel we may have tarnished our relationship with Ajax, and we’re clearly being mugged, but I hope he can bring some excitement to the RW. This a huge gamble for ETH.

I am camping in the strikers thread, obviously not getting Osmihen due to astronomical fee. So next best thing is Aubameyang or Dembele I reckon.

Auba’s poor attitude greatly concerns me. But yes I agree that we are in desperate need for a CF. Even if Ronaldo stays, he looks like he’s going to need another month of so to get up to speed.
 
Shouldn’t twitter be exploding with news about this pretty soon if the hamster is for real?
 
Get in. VDS taking us to the cleaners but hopefully now we can spend the last few days going after a ST. And maybe an RB.
 
So we paid full amount, less £1m - just to save face :lol:

Teams just know they can quote absurd prices then wait for our next poor performance, after which we’ll just cough up the money

Exactly and with Tony's injury proneness we can't afford to wait for Ronaldo to get up to speed, already 6 points off the pace
 
GET INNNN!!!

It’s portmanteau of the names Huntelaar and Hamstra - two directors at Ajax. A Twitter ITK who has been tier 0 all summer, with Ajax fans on Reddit taking his word as gospel.

If we develop the team well we won't be held to ransom in the future

No other industry works like this so why should sports? If someone wants to go and you get a fair offer, and we’ve presented an outrageous offer, then you let them go. It’s good business.

Seems like they have just let him go. They had a fee they wanted.

Considering we bought VDS for 2.5 million and he won everything going for 5 years, I'd say we owe him this.
 
I could care less about the price. The value of not seeing Elanga stinking it up day in day out on that right wing is priceless.

Didn't Clough do similar with Trevor Francis?
 
Thought it could be done after it was claimed the board members are speaking to the press after the game
