Jacob Ramsey - Gone

[pelty]

I maintain Ramsey didn’t want to leave.

Whether he wanted to leave or not is immaterial if he wouldn't sign the contracts we were offering him. As I said a few days ago, he's not in the wrong for holding out for what he knew he could get elsewhere but we're also not in the wrong for deciding what our limit was and sticking to it and then letting hi leave on our terms for a fee we're happy with when talks broke down.

100% this. There literally was a contract on the table and had been for months, according to reports, and he did not sign it. That is completely within his rights, and I applaud him for holding out for a contract that came close to what he believed he is worth, but I do not blame the club for sticking to their guns as well. Blame the system.

£40M feels £20M too low though . And to a direct rival .

Really? 60m for Jacob Ramsey?

[VillaTim]

Why  not , Saints want £50m for Dibling and he's much better than him. 24 and on the cusp of the England squad too as mentioned by Tuchel .

[pauliewalnuts]

They might want 50m, but they haven't got it.

Elvis might still reappear.

Jacob's ceiling is £60m if he can get back to his 2023 form. It pains me to say that I hope he doesn't but fear he will.
