Who acted ITK? Choccy hasn’t been in this saga
All this noise says to me is that De Jong has finally accepted he has to leave and they’ve started talking to the clubs who are interested.
Sounds like they were telling him: "lower your salary dog."
And dog is usually an insult in Spainish speaking countries. Not like calling someone "dog" in the u.s. (aka bro)

De Jong is our top target this whole summer. We won't back out now because we aren't willing to pay 17m extra. That doesn't make sense. I'm 100% positive we'll match every transfer fee Chelsea is offering, including the damn 17m in deferred wages.
Surely we still believe we can get this done with the fact we haven't signed an alternative DM yet.
Then again, who are the people doing the believing.

Doesn’t mean you pay anything for him.
It’s like Sancho, United were the worst in the world for not paying 100m. One of the best young players in world football, free run. If we didn’t pay 100m then all of the top clubs in world football would awaken and he’d join one of them.
This is that same logic. Talking ourselves into paying absolutely ridiculous fees for someone we have collectively talked up to stupid levels just because we’re linked with him.
Who acted ITK
?I know every football club's fanbase will have its fair proportion of cnuts and kings, but Barcelona seem to be properly stacked up in the cnut department. There's no reasoning with them. Utterly spoilt, too. Nothing worse than a spoilt cnut.
Damn phone lost connection, wouldnt let me post
Frenkie probably gave some wishy washy answer (aka "call me maybe") and we're like "so there is a chance!" - Now we're riding that off the cliff.
I'm not sure its a good sign for future clubs but im quite enjoying his nonchalance about the situation
Silly post. Deserves mockery. Reported.
Just boot him out already!
Alright Joleon Lescott
Reminds me of Kermit the Frog.

Out of interest - what actually happens if Barcelona buckle and pay him all his deferred wages (or sign something legally binding to comfirm payment over the next couple of years as long as he leaves now) and then sell him. Does that €17m they've paid/ agree to pay impact what they can pay this season and therefore registration of other players still?
ie. if they pay it, are they still stuck registration wise; or do they absolutely need him to agree a cut or further deferment to register players?
If they pay/agree to pay his wages I'm positive he'll join us.

Do they need defenders though? Azpilicueta, Silva, Koulibaly, Cucurella, Chalobah all capable of playing in their back 3
Striker yes they do need one of them but oddly hasn't appeared to be a priority for them at all this summer
Every club has missed out on signing players at some point, so it’s hardly proving your point by naming a few. Shearer was such an outlier that he still has the Ole song chanted at him.
Separating the silverware from the allure is quite hard when you’re that dominant, but the simple fact is that we attracted Pogba, Ibra, Mhiki when we were in the Europa. Di Maria, Shaw (top English talent) were both signed without any European football at all. This year we struggled to compete with Brentford for Eriksen, had to pay absolute top money for a Ajax player and another Dutch left back for a reasonable price, but unproven.
It looks quite obvious to me that the allure has dropped off from where it was. You’re welcome to argue the semantics about how strong that allure was previously for foreign players, but it’s lessened. That’s undeniable.
Meanwhile frenkie is driving 120mph on a 40 and his SO thinks its just because he's a madlad.
Don't worry Frenkie, we know... we know.
I'm glad somebody feckin appreciated it
All this torture for weeks and weeks only to be totally deflated when FDJ inevitably reaches some sort of agreement with Barca and stays put.
Why are you doing this to yourselves.

I'm not sure its a numbers thing so much as them being encouraged and driven to act like cnuts.
Nice try
Not paying attention to the road. Don't want.
It always makes me laugh when people take a small handful of people as representative of a much broader set of people. Happens on here all the time. How many fans were abusing him?
I looked past it because someone already has that as their FPL team name
(unless thats also you, then fair fecks)We had Champions League football and finished second the season before. Those players wouldn’t be touching us this year and that’s literally backed up by one of them asking to leave for the reason of wanting to play CL football
Are you using your five posts in here again Bob you boring bugger?
You can WUM elsewhere you know
Bump.
Right now I'd take that as oppose to him joining your lot
He'll soon be begging to leave when he barely plays next season
You guys doubted me when I said it was just about when.
Vindication!
Vindication!
What for?
You'd have to wonder about him if he stayed.
Barca antics and their fan's antics been nothing short of disgraceful.
By clubs you mean club, singular, as in Man United, right? Right, just checking.
There's pain in those eyes, a coldness, nay, acceptance. I'm sure we can crowdfund Mikky a paddleboard for the canal.

Welcome to the Europa League Frenkie.
Don't you have a WW game to rig in favour of the wolves?
