    Liam Delap was injured on Saturday and Chelsea recalled Marc Guiu from Sunderland. Sunderland then went and bought a striker from Ajax as a replacement and Ajax gazumped us for Dolberg. If we had done the negotiation properly and again not tried to save 10 quid we could have had Dolberg in on Friday or at least been aware he was not interested. Shambles.

    If you look at the tweets after it based on their own reliability ratings they're more reliable and still have the fee at 10 million

    We did we not in the end but by then the player set his eyes on Ajax
    If only we offered what they wanted on the Friday and not the Saturday

    Either way get it up him if Ajax has fell through aswell looks like we were the only ones offering close to what anderlecht wanted

    Even if so, we left the situation for the last few days of the window, instead of buying Strelec early, or something like that.

    Always think, despite any failings on our side, if a player isn't that interested in coming or has his head turned at the first sign of an alternative, then * him. Hope the deal falls through and he tears his hamstring.

    Seems like Ajax messing around to be honest and the player aswell hoping for a return

    The rumor mill was we agreed fee then dropped the fee on the proposed deal sheet by 600k

    Looks like Ajax lowballing them more than we did

    That's always the danger of leaving yer business until the last minute, also a fixation on the club's business model has once again seen us bring in squad players and fillers when we badly needed first team players.

    We should have had the deal done before the weekend before Ajax were even in the equation.

    Should have even went for Strelec when Bratislava went out to Kairat. He ended up at Middlesbrough ffs
