Rab a dab doo Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Give them a final figure of how high were prepared to go and set a deadline and be prepared to walk away. We cannot and should be held to random by any one player or club.This sends out,completely the wrong message for all our future transfer dealing.

Pay over the odds this time, then the next player who we want to buy, the price goes up. It's a vicious circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archied Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Bored with the whole tl saga now ,,, no way is that kind of money for him justifiable,, one decent loan season where he shone above those around him in a poor championship team ,,, whoopy bloody doo ,,, much rather give players like vydra , wiseman , anya, Blackman a chance to get back on track if haven't got a decent alternative lined up ,,, then kick the scouting staffs arses to get somebody sorted for January window ,,, im sick to death of paying big money for players to arrive and not even make the first team ,, my gut feeling is that rowett is also not stupid enough to pay way over the odds for players ,, he seems very clear that his reputation rests on the type of players he buys ,,, its move on tom for me I'm afraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 28 minutes ago, McLovin said: Shakespeare said that he wants to give British players a much greater chance to impress. Had Ranieri still been there, I maybe would have agreed but he literally only said the other week that he wants to give British players more of a chance. And just because he's hasn't signed a deal now, doesn't mean they cannot offer him one during the season. Lawrence will probably back himself to play at Leicester if two of his main competitors for the starting spot leave. I wonder if maybe he'll have said that knowing that there was plenty of interest in both Gray and Lawrence? If managers always said what they meant then we'd not have had to sit through the Clement or Pearson eras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly, highly doubt that Tom Ince would've done as well in a struggling Ipswich side. Not saying he's better than Ince, but Ince never thrived when we were struggling.

rynny Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Everyone saying move on, walk away, how was the bid structured? Was £7m the initial amount we pay or was that the total with all add ons? How were the add ons broke down? How much for promotion? Sell on percentage? What about appearance fee? International caps? Maybe we should have a think about the full complexity of the offer before just dismissing it out of hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I am surprised we went in with a bid so high. I would have expected an initial bid of 4 million to be rejected. They say they want 8 and they meet in the middle at 6..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he did....when we went on that dog awful run when we were top in February and had all the injuries and faltered dramatically, he scored all of the goals...

Rab a dab doo Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 The decision to be made by GR is that will Lawrence be the one whose signing will get us over line and be promoted. If thinks he is then we will go as far as we can to sign him. If there cheaper alternatives GR thinks can equally do the job then we move on to them until we eventually get one of his targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete2 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 If he joins us I would love to be proved wrong but I think at £7million he is already well overpriced. One decent season at Ipswich does not a career make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
