I dont see why he should be 40m less than Kane - he's younger and fitter.
But not as good.

No coincidence this is breaking hours before a huge game, deliberate attempt to unsettle I’m sure.

60m is not an acceptable bid for Ollie Watkins in any way, shape or form. What is his value to us? Because that is the number. It ain't anywhere near 60m.

I dont see why he should be 40m less than Kane - he's younger and fitter.

And has three years left on his contract rather than 12 months.

So is Anya-Josephine Marie Taylor-Joy though I doubt she'd sell as many shirts as Kane.

Also, I know who I prefer now. I was pretty relaxed over the Duran bid, whilst I categorically don't want this to happen.

Same. The thought of big money for Duran, I’m ok with. The thought of selling Watkins bothers me.

Hopefully Unai can phone him and call him a Lego-haired light bulb twat in Basque.

If we have anything about us then we’d tell them we wouldn’t sell to them whatever they offered.
Snidy tactics like this mean we don’t sell to them, ever. Give them that message and do it publicly tonight.

I was just preparing myself for a shared Chinese meal before the game when I received this news. I'd cry if Watkins left. I could not take it. I'm genuinely shocked by this news, but I've begun to suspect that this leak and gossip isn't as simple as it appears.

There must be some big financial concerns at our club right now. Why are we potentially selling both strikers right now? All this smoke, all this fire.

Is this maybe Duran and his people planned this to unsettle Watkins or Is this maybe Watkins the ever consumate pro who now may have had enough of Duran ?

Or is this a rumour of a bid leaked because of something that has happened behind the scenes for Duran transfer and to get the Duran deal to come along and get done. To do so a fabrication of Watkins leaving has come out to entice Al Nassr ?

So what's going on
Villa don't need this. I don't need this because I only just started my wonton soup and I don't feel like eating more than one vegetable spring roll after this confusing goings on

I really just wanted to enjoy this evening everything was going so well
