Val Haller? That was just a myth

I think someone mentioned him earlier in the thread, but I wonder if Bournemouth would sell if a decent offer came in for Afobe.  Not been there long, but doesn't seem to be first choice.

Afobe will always be twice the player Valencia is - I hope to god Bournemouth  think they're past him and want to be Barcelona - he would be brilliant.

Tony was at the West Ham game tonight, posted a photo of his view on Twitter earlier. Guest of the Porn Dwarf you would presume sorting Valencia deal out?

EDIT: Saying that, as I typed the above Tony the Tweeter just put this:

Quote
Quotation from Mao:We must have faith in the masses! Truly  fans' viewpoints are even better than scouting reports!

So that would say to me he's listened to the fans views on Valencia (mostly negative) and went to see him for himself and has concurred that he's shite?

The Villa View also asked him this: Does this mean you've decided NOT to sign Valencia? and he liked that Tweet so fair to say he won't be coming.

Just getting my head around this, after all the years of shit under Lerner, but we have actually got an owner who listens to the fans!!

Surely, hopefully, he's not the one making decisions like that!

Didn't Randy balk at employing Schteve McClaren because of negative fan feedback?

Either way, I don't think the owner should be making football decisions. Though he might be using this direct communication as a bargaining ploy. Overinflated price for Valencia given by Gold...negative comments on Twitter from Dr X implying we ace no longer interested...more realistic price from Gold?

If it is part of negotiations, all well and good. If the owner is dictating transfer policy, then it's a bad sign.

I don't think we know anything like enough about it to be able to imply anything other than it currently seems unlikely that he will be the nine we get. I think the price tag already ensured that so nothing has really changed.
