No Fosun employee has ever said "sell to buy". They said self sustainability and there is money for the right deal. Sell to buy was fans interpretation - and it was simplistic and wrong.
Even if it is a fluke and he flops , for £10M you'd easily get more than half back to a promotion seeking Championship side.
Not sure he needs to, so much *******s out there anyway!
Knows where the net is. I’d just pay the 10/15m Blackburn want at least you’re getting a decent striker
It was clearly implied, if that's what you want to believe then fine, but no need to be condescending.
Brereton Diaz could go quite far in all fairness. Certainly is a talent.
That's madness
How dare they not run it past Sellars
Starting to think he may have got lucky, fair enough his original tweet seems unbelievably spot on to say we’d do a deal for Nunes on the 15th if no one else had come in for him… but he claims he got that info from “someone very close to the transfer/scouting sod”. How would this contact whose close to wolves transfer/scouting know about this if it was all Guo and Mendes, with no committee involvement at all.
Agreed no business runs like that
I love this club lol!
Not intended to be condescending Skrilla. The problem is if something is repeated enough times it becomes gospel and I just wanted a more accurate reflection of what has been said by the club.
I think he's maybe saying they made the deal with Sporting, not that the rest of the team were not involved at all. There would still be a heck of a lot of background work on a deal that size I'd imagine
Potentially, yeah… the way I read it originally, just seemed that way to me.
Right now, I think we'll really struggle this side of Christmas. When the new signings have had time to bed in properly I think we'll start to really kick on but I until then I see a lot of flattering to deceive performances with results to go with them.
I agree.
Really?
This sounds like total made up nonsense. If it were true who would know it or disclose it…Anybody vouch for the integrity of this tweeter or should he just be ignored. By the way the deal was agreed sometime ago with the clubs ( before Fosun visits) and both Bruno and Jorge were reported to have been heavily involved in persuading Nunes . The idea that senior management don’t know the budget is the sort of fantasy that someone who has never worked for a large multinational conglomerate may come up with. I have seen no evidence for this.
Me thinks he’s let one good guess, or genuine ITK tip-off, go to his head.
Chinese business men do like to bring presents in fairness.. seems a bit OTT this one.
He only actually landed one scoop
It is absolutely nonsense that Jeff isn't aware of the budget, I can tell you that for a fact. Jeff is the one who creates the budgeting forecasts for the year and feeds them up the ladder to Fosun.
Agreed. It’s BS.. he’s blown his load.
The thing I'm wondering is why Jeff says we'll struggle to spend only a few months ago and then boom, we've laid out 90m
Money is there for the right players - if they make us better and give us return on investment then we can spend.
It’s great to read! Basically the posters who admirably didn’t panic or get angry at the lack of signings/no forward are unhappy that the “pant wetters” are as happy as them about the new signings and don’t think that they deserve to be.
Hoping its the full back we are after
Anyone happen to screenshot the tweets you’re all talking about?
He was talking *******s anyway mate I wouldn't worry
