It would be funny if Pep decides not to sign Nunes because he is being unprofessional, and doesn't want that kind of person in his team.
Summer Transfer Window 23/24
- Thread starter Bigpig
- Start date
I didn't sign the contract
And presumably because Wolves wouldn't agree to that. My post was in response to the point @shipinabottle was making re Wolves investing in him and him wanting to leave after 12 months - that was, reportedly at least, something both parties were open to happening. Wolves unwillingness to allow that reported clause to apply to everybody and them rejecting City's bid is almost certainly a financial decision with them believing they can get more money out of City, rather than a moral stance against a player wanting to leave after 12 months.

Seems a bit risky that West Ham would take that kind of risk for such a small profit. It's a lot of downsides with a very tiny upside.
Who knows. Although never confirmed, the reports about the agreement being in place for him to join us lingered on most of last season until it became clear that we weren't interested in him anymore. Maybe the true fee was more or maybe it was the only way Wolves could get the signing over the line and their upside was what we're seeing now with Liverpool not taking the option up and City being after him.
To be fair I think mahrez did the same to force through the transfer. And let's face it, he probably would have been given some sort of guarantees from city.
For 47m I'd drive him there myself. Terribly overrated and his attitude stinks
Could be worse I suppose, he has some decent games. Could he be a consistent starter? Not sure.

I don't mind Hojberg, at least he has PL experience and scores the odd goal. It will provide good cover for Casemiro.
I remember he played really well in the tournament where Eriksen collapsed, but he isn’t consistent for me.
Aren’t we looking for a player to play alongside Casemiro rather than as cover?
ETH loves an ex-player though. If they've not played under ETH before it takes an awful lot to get into this Utd side.
Indeed, it’s getting a bit silly.
Højbjerg is better on the ball, for sure.
That does seem to be the case...
Why is he not being used by the new gaffer at Spurs then? he'd love that kind of player
Maybe he doesn't like his attitude? He does seem quite a stroppy sort of player.
Ideal for us, really
I suppose all managers are guilty of this and it's not exclusive to football. I'm behind the manager in deconstructing and reconstructing a team that plays as he want's them too but I'm not sold on Mount yet and Antony has plenty of development to. do. I don't know much about Amrabat, Gravenberch or Hojberg but we certainly need a body in midfield for when Casemiro is suspended. Reluctantly I agree that any of those would be an upgrade on McSauce.
Regarding Spurs, Saar and Bissouma looked a good combo. Much more dynamic so understandable that they are preferred in Angeball.
United chasing Hojberg and Cucurella by the looks of it. Don't really think either player is that great. Shaw injury changes a lot though, does ETH have concerns the midfieldiis strugging at time and doesn't trust McTom?
