So Sullivan makes a bid for a young Argentinian RB that has just broken into the national team and makes a loan offer of less than a month of Hernandez former salary with an option to pay less than half River Plate's valuation at the end of the season,if he's any good!!
He still thinks he can save money and stay up!!
If the player in question is any good, what better selling point would be to come to Europe and settle in under a player and compatriot he would,probably, dream of aspiring to??

This is the stage we are at now, they link us with a top player to fool us and all the time they are scouring the lower ends of European divisions for hit and hopers. Things are really really wrong

with foyth and levy wanting out i am surprised we haven't gone for argentinas starting rb who is a natural cb... kill two birds with one stone, young, athletic and tall, very technical... for an asking price of 15m.. sounds like a no brainer for a team like us who have deficits in rb and cb (in a 3)

still tho.. you'd think a dm/cm would be more pressing at this stage and there is nothing happening there... so i guess it's not that surprising

Yeah I got to agree with that. I think Balbuena and Fornals will stay for one season.

Also we will only get 20 million apiece for Diop, Anderson, and Haller imo. Quite depressing really.

iirc we were linked with both bony and arfa at the start of the season, if there was any truth to it pellegrini would of shot sulli down with those :lol:

gaiten just released.. has he lost his pace? was excellent a couple of years ago.. not that we need more attacking midfielders

there is nothing we need on that list unfortunately

Bony and Ben Arfa must be on our radar too, and anyone else we have been previously linked to.

clubs will offer low prices if they think the selling club has to sell.. if the clauses are truth then financially that wont be the case.. so the cut relegation prices for our players is pretty unlikely imo

We’ve been linked to Ryan Fraser, I think he would be a good fit for us but with his contract running out in the summer Sullivan will think he’s got the upper hand and before you know it he would have signed for someone else

Is this a reference to the punts otherwise known as ‘Sulli Specials’? :lol:

It used to be so easy to sell the club to players, we had a nice compact atmospheric stadium, the best supporters, we wanted to play good football, we were ambitious (but not insanely) and were a family club that cared about everyone involved, but now only one thing matters and that is money, unfortunately the obsession with money at the top is threatening to send us back to the dark ages.

Jordan Rhodes. A transfer window is not a transfer window without his name getting a mention

Whilst I actually really like Fraser as a player, we haven't got a hope in hell of getting him out of Bournemouth given we're direct rivals down at the bottom.
