bigash_swfc Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 If I was playing football manager, and Sheffield United & Aston Villa came in for Palmer (for example) both same offers. I would accept Villa's and reject United's on principle. I believe the deal for Winnall was too good to turn down, we may have to beat Villa's offer for Hourihane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Cleary happening... Hourihane to sign for #SWFC. Fee 200 magic beans, 6 quavers and latest Reader's Digest. #BFC too wrapped up with cousins to comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m open-minded. It would be silly not to be." He's basically saying to Barnsley, you want me then show me the money. He knows they won't be able to give him what he wants unless they drastically change their policy which the Morsy deal falling through may do. At the same time it's his bargaining tool for any possible move as he's telling us & Villa that if we don't act quick we may miss out. Barnsley won't "push it" or they would have sorted his contract b4 getting to this stage (i.e. 6 months left). They can't keep him it's obvious, he's saying the right things whilst there to stay professional but he's going, just an auction on fee and (more importantly) wages to find out where.

It'd be a no brainer to give them no money at all and send Dielna, McGugan and Melo as a swap McGugan isn't going to be easy to get rid of, he isn't as good as money. he's a good play and much better than what they're used to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
