We need players off the wages budget or we can't add to the squad ... we're skint, it seems nobody will pay 35m for a 29 year old player they can sign for free in less than two years.

The best we can hope for is having his wages paid this season and maybe 5/10m next summer ... this is now the harsh reality for clubs with massive wages budgets, and we're one of the highest.

That's what Juve do. They've spent enormously on Ronaldo and the wages of other players there. Their wage bill is zigzagging out of control.

Apparently, they value Laca at €30m. We want €50m.

Exactly, the entire post was ridiculous. Same with these comments we won't get 25-30m for Auba this summer if we sold him, of course we would.

........... no, we really wouldn't.

What evidence do you have of any club lining up making us offers for Auba?

None, that's what.

What club is going to spend £30m on a 31 yr old player with 12 months left on his contract and if they wait till January they can get him for £10m?

Except there have been ZERO offers ... you might think we can name our price but there is no evidence to support that conclusion. It's not the transfer fee that's the problem it's the wages and lack of return ... it's been explained over and over but here it is again ....

Buy a 32 year old for 30m pay him 10m a year on a three year contract then he leaves for free - your overall cost 60m

Buy a 27 year old for 30m pay him 10m a year for three years on a five year contract then sell him for 20m - your overall cost 40m

All clubs know this hence once you hit 30+ your transfer value drops dramatically, sure there are exceptions but it's a huge gamble, with clubs very short of cash having to commit 60m knowing you will get nothing back, that's only for the mega rich.

Of course there aren't, because they all know he's staying and always was.

If that’s the case why isn’t the contract signed and sealed?

Probably is, just Arsenal timing the announcement or Auba waiting to confirm the players actually get signed before he does.

Either way where else is he gonna go, Barca is the only semi realistic option.

I think it's about to happen based on the news today.

Thiago also doesn't score 30 goals and won't be an automatic starter for them.
