Ken Hairy 3,935 Posted September 1, 2022 Rose is a busted flush, terrible attitude problems it would seem too. Steer clear. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The fog came down..! 4 Posted September 1, 2022 He's a specialist LB with pedigree earlier in his career. Might be worth a punt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Odd doesn’t come close. Gladbach appear to fish within the same 4-10m pool as we have in the past few seasons. So it does seem odd that they're even beginning this process. Perhaps this is more an indication of Farke's personal knowledge, Despite being the consummate professional for us on the field, Max could be absolutely gagging to get a move away behind closed doors and so BG are giving it a go. Who really knows though. What's interesting is knowing that their scouts came to watch Rashica during one of the live TV games. Presuming we are looking for the money back on Milot, there's probably a hope they could tempt Max at 10-15m in some kind of instalment package? At 22 he's such a great investment for a team who can display his skills - I'm not sure we are able to at the highest level, being bottom feeders. Before a ball was kicked I was thinking it'd be ok to lose him and take the money providing it was 15m+. But now he feels critical to us. 90% sure he stays, but there's a lot of talk growing these past 24 hours - My verdict: it's an over-eager agent at work. 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no clue if we're comfortable right now, or have spent beyond the budget and looking to recoup in this window or next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I'm right in saying there was talk that our financial position is pretty healthy all things considered, which may be helped by the American investment that is being talked about too. I don't get the impression we're under pressure to bring in funds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Bailey clearly feels it's the opposite and has said so numerous times. But then I do wonder whether his position at The Athletic, the club have been able to use him as a bit of a mouthpiece to aid our strategy? Mick Dennis pulled the cover on the private contact between Paddy and Webber with the recent spat, So I really don't doubt that there's a lot said off the record that isn't as 'friendly', or rather true, as our local journos believe.

We all agreed Dennis was talking absolute cobblers on that thread, was called out by Paddy, and he issued an apology. I wouldn’t draw any conclusions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
