More like he told them to feck off during that interview.

:lol:

On a different note, Madrid is using their mouth-piece Marca to drive up the price of the likes of Morata, Rodriguez, Isco etc. by either linking them to random clubs or by claiming they aren't available for sale unless someone is willing to pay the buy-out clause.



Good. If that happens this might make Kroos available who'd be an ideal replacement for Carrick since PSG won't let Verratti go. Kroos' difensive contribution is questionable but Mourinho did get defensive works out of Fabregas, so I won't worry much. Can't see Kroos going to Bayern, PSG and Arsenal don't need him. So it should be between ourselves and the Berties. In that case, it'll depend on how good a snake-oil salesman Mourinho is and how well Pep and Kroos still get on.
 
Watford rejecting a 20m bid from Leicester for Deeney :wenger: Shows the money in the league when leicester can bid that much for an average player like Deeney, and Watford can flat out reject it even though he's not worth close to that. Yet we see someone like Pjanic go to Juventus for ~24m (plus incentives of course, but still).
 


This is mental, not just the fact someone bid £20m for Troy Deeney but also that it was rejected. Ffs how much do watford value him at? I know he's not a bad player. But he's almost 28, one year of top flight football, never played at international level.

With a bit of scouting £20m would get you 2-3 strikers of similar quality in other markets.
 
£20m for Deeney. Christ.

Dunno if the bid or rejecting the bid is worse.
 
That is absolutely insane. Why do Leicester even want him?
 
That Watford turned that bid down should give all of us a pretty good hint about how likely it is to sign PL players this summer.

If £20m isnt enough for Troy Deeney, what will players like Stones and Mahrez cost?

Simply not worth it.
 
At a glance I though it was Liverpool who bid Deeney. I felt happy inside. From Higuain to Deeney. What a joke. It was Leicester. Still what a joke. 20m rejected. Why on earth a club who just won the league want to get him? And 20m. It's beyond mad.

Leicester makes it a bigger joke - they are actually a good side! :)
 
Reminds me when WBA rejected crazy money from Spurs for Beratinho and then kept him on the bench all season. :lol:

It was utter delusion, they thought he could go for even more money in the next transfer window :lol: And now no one wants him.
 
10 notifications later. So £25m for Troy Deeney then? :lol:
 
You guys do realise that 20 million is peanuts for an EPL club these days right? watford will get 100 million next year even if they dont register a point all season. 20 million is the new 2 million

I wonder where EPL clubs would be if they actually had decent Scouting networks like other leagues and with the salaries they can afford they can easily pull great players from the 2nd tier clubs, but they will actually do is spend Millions on Average players. Give the 100 Million to Atletico and Juventus and they will make a world class 11 with that amount of money.
 
Leicester must still be hungover, they have a £20m odd clause on Vardy but then bid £20m for Deeney, don't know what Watford are on for turning it down....
They want Deeney regardless of Vardy's decision.
