I don't know figure, just told it's a lot less than the €30 mill quoted and we have supposed to have bid €20 so somewhere in between that but a lot sound like more than a couple of million Surely we should just bid the release clause fee, if it is only a couple of million more? At €20mill we are at the top of our budget, Scholes is an accountant he will try get the best deal at first

Didn't Dave View's say we have had a huge bid excepted for a top winger ?

Yarmolenko isn't going to join is he?! in all honesty, there's more chance of me luring Nicole Scherzinger into my underground bunker and taking part in a bout of consensual love making, I'm afraid.

Fair enough. Seems like that player has probably rejected us then.

My understanding - I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong - is that we can't speak to the player, or his agent, if a bid hasn't been accepted.
So if SL&P are correct in saying that we haven't yet had a bid accepted then we're no closer to signing him than the Vale are.

Out of all those I think I'd still go for Moses although Remy would be great too. If we did indeed end up with Moses we'd still be fucked on the right. I think Moses is a waaaay better winger than Lennon but I'd genuinely rather see us starting with Arnie on the left and Lennon on the right, than see Moses on the left and Arnie on the right. We need Moses (or similar) as cover for Arnie (and as a bonus he can cover the right) - but, as you say, we do need a specialist right winger and Yarmo is by far the best affordable option currently on the market. Mirallas is also an option who can play (and score) on both flanks.

Even though the link seems spurious at best, the lad Jens Toornstra (see summer transfer thread) seems much more in our likely ballpark.
Sometime soon we will need to move away from courting these superstars who think they are too good for little old Stoke!

Must be time for a davesviews update? Here you go The club are interested in a number of players One is a winger one is a midfield playmaker and others can fill various positions - fact Talks are on going and something COULD. happen soon....

That all depends on if Kiev give he permission to talk to other clubs like we did with Nzonzi. Yarmo has stuck to his promise of staying until they win the league no Kiev are sticking to there's and allowing him to leave

I just have a feeling we have leaked the Yarmo story in an attempt to flush out Shaqiri and pressure him into joining us.
I'm wrong on most things, but for once I might just be right.

Sky are reporting that Napoli are going in for Salah so if they get him then we surely are even more in the clear to get him.

Beginning to think this is all rumour/paper talk to be honest. Surely if we wanted the player or any player for that matter we'd just put a bid in like we did with Shaqiri. Can't see why we'd wait if we were after the player.
