If the player has a clause, we can't control the transfer.I know, but it doesn't mean we welcome the interest. Do you think we welcomed the interest in Benteke or Delph?Good point Percy, but the tweet just seems a tad naive if there is a clause.

Now now Percy, be reasonable! If the player has a clause, we can't control the transfer.
If we had a half decent side he wouldn't have looked as good.
I think Gregg Evans and co should fall on their pens if this clause is a figment of their imaginations, strange tweet from Wyness if the clause does exist.
Tone has said the clause has been met, by several clubs. Down to Gana, Idrissa and Gueye now.I'm not sure he's even as good as Reo-Coker.

Shock horror you arrive with negativity. We've bought players without selling any so far, but first player we sell and it's the sell to buy line. Were you expecting to keep the whole squad this year? Oh and it's an activated release clause.The bottom line is that our squad is still far from good enough with just over a week before the season starts. Lerner and even Ellis would be getting it in the neck with this amount of inaction.I dont trust Xia at all. If the money was there, you would strengthen first and sell at the same time.I'm afraid the linear, unidirectional nature of time as we experience it makes this impossible. You can't have one event happen first and another one at the same time.The first event being, well first, dictates that a further event must occur second.It would be typical of us not to be exploring the possibilities of pan-dimensional transfer activity. I bet Newcastle do.West Brom no doubt led the way.

It's not just finances though Chris. Having non-contributing players, a bomb squad, has a negative impact on the whole club; exhausting the coaches' time, setting a low bar for commitment in training, moaning to younger/impressionable players etc, basically parasites.
