I just don't get how people think getting £150 million for him, which we won't, is some kind of victory for us, and also assume that all this will be reinvested.
A well run club would have set a deadline to get this done, and have a replacement either already here, or ready to go, not be sat here not knowing if your best player is going to turn up for the tour, have his agent chatting crap, and purchasing clubs smelling blood.
Realistically if he's going he should be gone by now, but this will drag on for weeks, especially if we're holding out for £150 million as so many think we should, I just can't see us having the time, or ability in the transfer market to replace him properly, if at all.
On point.
Same thing I said about Mourinho. If we were going to fire him, we should have done so at the end of the previous season. Leaving him for last Summer and not supporting him to recruit those he wanted, was criminal. Timing is everything in football.
I am already getting worried about next season.
