I don't get it, really don't. If this move goes through at around the price currently being talked about he would have moved for a total of just under 300m in his career. All this shows to me is quite a few clubs who have been prepared to sell the guy and he's never been good enough to be at a club from where there isn't a step up.Tweet

According to some sources Ole is willing to keep him and give him another chance given his good form for WH, seriously, will we ever learn?!! He'll never be worth as much as he is now, he'll go back to being on the bench and stinking up the joint and his value will drop. Why can't we move on players who aren't good enough. We'll never win anything by holding on to mediocre players. It's infuriating..We believe in charity so we try to keep useless players in high wages.
Hmm I really think we should be insisting on a DM as a matter of far more urgencyTweet

Dunno if this is worthy enought to be in here, but it could imply other clubs is looking at Matic.
The reports say the two failed bids were a while ago, while we were supposedly 'preparing a big bid for Haaland, talking to his camp etc etc' so make of that of what you will. I don't think it's a case of running into a wall with the Haaland talks then switching focus to Lukaku overnight.Chelsea have moved rapidly from trying to sign Haaland to going after Lukaku. Granted he isn't as bad and can work in a proper system, but still there is a big gulf in class.
One less competitor next year , I’d like that . If City bags Kane I’d say we would have a fair chanceChelsea have moved rapidly from trying to sign Haaland to going after Lukaku. Granted he isn't as bad and can work in a proper system, but still there is a big gulf in class.
He will join OGS next summer when Cavani’s contract is over.Haaland must have made it clear he's no interest in going there this summer or in the near future if they're willing to spunk that on Lukaku.
Tbh I disagree. As much as we need a dm to improve our quality, Fred and McTominay are still decent players, whereas we don't have anybody else who can play fullback really now that Telles is injured. Like honestly, what happens if Shaw or AWB are unavailable, who do we play there? Williams (prob going on loan)? Dalot (dear god)? Our depth there is extremely weak. Trippier won't have as big of an impact as a top dm would have but it's actually probably more important to get him in because injuries to Shaw (already recovering from a mild injury and quite injury prone in general) or AWB would leave us with a bit of a disaster situation.Hmm I really think we should be insisting on a DM as a matter of far more urgency
Nobody good with a decade of bright future ahead would want to join that soulless club. Madrid, Barca, Bayern, United and even Juventus still hold the pullHaaland must have made it clear he's no interest in going there this summer or in the near future if they're willing to spunk that on Lukaku.
This could be great news for you lotTweet

Good point. Makes the cavani stop gap even wiser as at the moment other clubs more in need than us of a strikerThis could be great news for you lot
Lukaku to Chelsea
Kane to City
Mbappe to Real
Means next year when Haaland becomes available quite a few clubs that you would expect to be in for him probably won't be.
Yep, I'm really expecting Haaland to join. I think his relationship with Ole has far more sway than people think.This could be great news for you lot
Lukaku to Chelsea
Kane to City
Mbappe to Real

My first thought was are Inter that stupid to turn down that deal but then again they arent making a massive profit are they?Tweet

Nah, Chelsea will be looking to offload Lukaku by then, after Tuchel realises he has the first touch of a brick wall.This could be great news for you lot

Not sure about that to be honest. I'm not clued up on the contractual agreement United and Inter have with each other.My first thought was are Inter that stupid to turn down that deal but then again they arent making a massive profit are they?
Didnt they default on their payments to us for Lukaku already?

You're both correct, we could've fined them for it but it was when everyone was struggling from covid so I think we've let them off the fine. If I remember rightly, they owe us £49m from that transfer.Don't Inter still need to pay us for the remaining money for the transfer of Lukaku from us to them?
According to @roonster09 you have a sell-on clause that nets you a % of the profit Inter make on Lukaku.Do we have a sell on %?
I choose to believe you because that's what I want to hear. Plus, you're from Norway and possibly know Ole and Haaland personally.He will join OGS next summer when Cavani’s contract is over.
I'd like to think (perhaps naively) that Haaland has enough self-worth to reject them.Nah, Chelsea will be looking to offload Lukaku by then, after Tuchel realises he has the first touch of a brick wall.
I reckon our biggest competition for Haaland will be PSG, who seem to be cosying up to Raiola (and will be looking to replace Mbappe).
They know they're not getting him.This could be great news for you lot

Kane to City
