Interesting yarn heard over the weekend from a Football Agent.
Trippier’s agent also represents Chris Wood and flogged him to the Saudi’s before Dyche knew anything about it. Burnley’ s Yank owners were offered £25 mill, when the release clause was only £15m and was only supposed to be valid in the summer window.
First I’d heard of this…
Here we go - Levy 1-0-1. Find a player nearing end of contract - low ball the shit out of it and then get agent / player to play up until the move happens
The Echo reporting West Ham will make a bid for Broja in the current window.
He is on loan for the season. Great work.
The Echo have just picked that up from another shite publication. As usual.
Hopefully this won’t be another Toby Alderweireld situation.
Here’s another article from the Echo about something somebody else printed/posted.
I love Garth Crooks’ justification for not picking Salisu in his team of the WEEK. He bases his decision on previous performances. So not this week, then? Nice one Garth. 
“But I’ve seen this lad play before and he can do something brilliant one minute and then something utterly reckless the next.
“I tend to prefer defenders who are consistent, steady and generally reliable.”
He continued: “Aymeric Laporte falls into that category and is capable of scoring the occasional goal when his team is in trouble.”
Garth Crooks is a massive bellend, why the BBC continues to spunk money away on him is beyond me.
Bollocks I say…
He is a grade a idiot.
Blocked him ages ago.
I reckon it’s true. We’ll be making all the right noises now, but dragging negotiations out until 10pm on deadline day and then pulling the plug just to fuck them over.
That’ll learn them for calling our game off.
He’s probably the worst football pundit in UK televisual history. One can only speculate as to which of his qualities leads the BBC to persist in employing a man of such limited talent.
£36 million quid (at least) well spent 
Ffs
Sponsored by Broja’s agent?
Made me laugh…
I took it as a piss take. The funniest bit:
“… Carroll spent two months at Reading in the Championship and looked match fit, scoring two of the best disallowed goals you are likely to see in the 7-0 defeat to Fulham…”
Wow transfer window news from Saints
That’s a big step down for sure, wasn’t he supposed to be the next best thing when we got him?
