    I am happy we didn’t immediately cave in and made a 4th offer. This is already an improvement from previous years. After negotiations we might end up paying 2-3m more which I think is absolutely fine. But lets look elsewhere for now and see if Chelsea caves.

        I agree, I think we need to be taking a bit more firm of a line with transfers. It’s pretty rough seeing city pick up players like Haaland for £50m while we pay over the odds.

        These price tags invite extra pressure and criticism and then the monster wages we put them on makes it hard to shift players, especially if they’ve been seen to be playing like shit for a couple seasons.
