Iliman Ndiaye (City back on the menu)

[Cozzie]

Yeah that's massively soured it.

To be honest they are inept anyway aren't they.

Maybe someday the stars align and we get good people who know what they are doing.

[NickNack]

35m for richarlison. Depends how you look at it. 7/8th of a dibling is pretty good. 1 armstrong not so much


These people dont have a clue what they are doing. Goes far beyond to scouting too. They've blown the budget without fixing the problems. They've made decisions based on what they think the fans would accept then ran away from them as soon as they realised we wouldnt

Its inept and it has been since day 1. People wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt but theres never really been much

I think there have been some positives but the negatives have been horrific

[777Kidnappings]

Off the numbers weve traded Ndiaye for richarlison, 6 months of grealish and a left back whos never played. Oh and weve been left with 100k a week wage of richarlison rather than the 25k a week of ndiaye


There can be no doubt. Its been completely inept. We are selling good players now to pay for the expensive signings we didnt need last summer. We are buying players just to appease fans but have no clue how to appease fans

[StirlingBlue]

How accurate is Joyce on that level of detail?

Crazy numbers if true.

Edit: Fuck me Richy only has one year left on his contract too

[NomadskiEFC]

Absolute shambles of a football club.

Its like Moshiri all over again.

[Free Agent]

Makes no sense - how will he move the sofa?

Look, the signs were there when his missus chose a WHITE sofa

[Fieldy618]

We're in the shit financially, have to be. There's no way anyone with a shred of intelligence takes this deal willingly. Just fucking nuke this club man, it never fails to let you down.

[Trowel]

Can't get my head around the idea that we're getting way less for Ndiaye than Citeh did for 2 goal Savinho.

And they didn't even throw in the n and h.

Yeah they were definitely banking on a big bid for Ndiaye that didn’t appear and now they’re desperate

[Shogun]

£35m for Richarlison is just for accounting purposes. It could have been £100m for Ndiaye and £75m for Richarlison if they could have got away with selling that as fair market value.

It's a swap deal with cash and we think Ndiaye is worth £25m more than Richarlison. Absolute jokers.

[MayorFarnham]

Spurs have a strong negotiating position after the events of the last 24 hours. Everyone knows we'll even sell our best prospect for a knock-down fee just to make a move in the market.

Richarlison is maybe worth 15 (to someone a bit desperate) so we are taking 40 for Ndaiye

[Gash]

At least some people's apostrophe key will get a rest if we sell him.

[MayorFarnham]

This shit got boring about twenty pages ago.

[AjaxAndy]

£25m for Ndaiye + £20m for Beto = the £40m (plus £5m spare to pay for the first installment of Tete) that we clearly needed to balance the books with the Armstrong sale.

I think we'll all agree that £60m for Ndaiye is too little, and £35m for Richarlison is obscene, but I think we've had no choice other than receive a points deduction unfortunately.

I just wish we'd had a bit more honesty from the club this summer as what started off as high hopes, and talks of Doue has ended in Tete and Richarlison, almost selling our prized youth asset, and having our pants pulled down by Spurs because of how desperate we've been to balance the books.

Horrible horrible summer!
