I don't think there'd be problems on the Roma side, they hold his registration but are obliged to sell to Besiktas for €11m. Besiktas however want, either Guessand on an 18 month loan and/or €18m - if reports in Turkey are to be believed. We've told them the Guessand loan is too long. No mention of money.
18 months is fine, we will just have to suffer Evann's absence.

I wonder if we've offered Guessand to the Saudi team who wanted him last summer and were willing to more than match our offer?

His stock isn’t going to be particularly high given how he’s started at Villa.

Not panicking just yet, Abraham accords can be a tricky business.
Exactly, it must be done by the book and I am going to keep taking the tablets.

Let’s pray it goes through

We don't need to get to 70% but an agreed figure lower then the current one with the aim of getting to 70 within the three seasons. However paying Sancho £300k a week probably hasn't helped towards that and with Malen one of our top earners, it isn't a surprise he has been sacrificed.

Paying Sancho £300k a week definitely won’t help, but it would be pretty stupid considering we are supposed to pay him ‘only’ £160k a week.
I agree that paying Sancho £300k/week when we only have to pay him £160k/week would indeed be gross incompetence.

I do wonder though, with him being paid weekly, does he have to go to the cash desk or do they bring it round to him in a little envelope? And does he get it all as 3200 x £50 notes or do they break up some of it to tens and twenties, maybe a fiver and then five £1s so he can put them in the little slot they have on shopping trolleys? Cos it’d be a right pain in the arse if you got to the trolleys at Lidl and you only have a big pile of £50 notes … no danger of getting the cashier to break one of those for you!

Guess I’ll never understand the lives of footballers.

Oxoford United might be interested.
