Wonder if cash plus a player? Remember the Stuart Armstrong rumours?

Cant see Armstrong coming here.

Is highly educated and wouldn't want the hassle imo

If we are a Europa League team then what are Celtic. Fucking dross in Europe.

Winning the league title was so important.

Let’s hope we avoid both Monaco and PSV.

When is the draw made?

 

[Craigie]

Had Cousin not all but agreed to sign for Hull before he scored against Celtic, or was it in the following days it was agreed?

He played on the Sunday and left the next day.

After potential opponents in a playoff round PSV signed De Jong and Simons: Monaco, another potential 3rd Qualifer who are unseeded have signed Minamino and set to sign Belotti from Torino

Wonder what people will be like if we qualify and the teams we can then draw. It's all part of the challenge of the qualifiers playing quality teams and at the end of the day they're going in cold like we are as well given their leagues start after the first leg of the 3rd round. 2 good teams but we are also a good team in Europe bring it on.

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Round about the 18th July I think?

Someone will correct me if I am wrong.

His wage demands would put an end to any interest never mind anything else.

Yeah, we're so conditioned from years of disappointment at that level we'll still play down just how good we can be.

PSV will be an interesting watch. They've given Van Nistelrooy the job of head coach, his first attempt at a big job.

We’d definitely want the cash if there were anything in this

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Yeah but you also fail to mention that PSV has sold Gotze and Sadilek and Monaco have sold Tchouameni (for £72m). We have added to our squad as well with Souttar and potentially have Colak coming in.

Monaco were knocked out the EL in the last 16 and PSV the conference QF where our squad made it to the final of the EL. The players or numbers they bring in is all relative to the squad they originally had and who they lose. I’m sure if/when Aribo leaves and anyone else we will also be bringing in more players. Actually think we will bring in another 1 at least even without sales before the game.

 

[Dizzel1872]

Colak played the 2nd half for PAOK again today they lost 2-1

At least they are keeping him fit for us

 

[Coisty09]

Youre old fashioned

I would also rather he was fit and match sharp.
People seem to forget that when he played for Malmo last season they were about nine games into their domestic season.
Getting matches under your belt it’s really important.

Yeah don't get me wrong it will be difficult against PSV they will be a good side and probably a tougher tie than Monaco. Braga papped Monaco out the Europa league last season for example.

Interesting. A club, I could see going in for Aribo. Would be a decent move for him too. Shine there for a season or 2 and possibly get a move to one of the BIG clubs - vital we include a sell on percentage.

What sort of money are we thinking Southampton would be willing to part with for Joe?

£10m mate, his release clause amount bud!

(Presume you missed that info)

£10m

Is this 100% confirmed?

Still doesn't make sense to me

H&H and T40 said as much.

Presume it came from the club tempering expectations.

My thinking is that his agent wanted involved in the deal as a pre-requisite to joining us, so his client would be more likely to get a good move as he’s reaching his peak.

Remember he turned down Celtic and a couple of Premier League clubs to join us, so I imagine the thinking was he comes here to keep developing before moving down south.

[Coplandbear]

The more I think about it the more i want us to sell an asset purely so that can hopefully set in motions some deals.

Certainly would help

 

[LoganBear]

Andy works in the finance sector and has a lot of knowledge there. He absolutely loves that side of things and likes to try and be realistic about how it will affect the club.

I get wound up by this notion that guys who are just giving opinions, ones they back up, are being led by the club. Andy is in the same position as me when it comes to this - the club don't tell us a thing! There will be a few at H&H who have more direct contact. The rest of us are given absolutely nothing, just like anyone else.

For balance andy is one of my personal favourite contributors to heart and hand, really enjoy listening to him including his take, opinion and comments on the financial side of things.

Still can't really wrap my head around it – if there's a £10m clause, why was he not snapped up in January when he was absolutely flying?

It's chicken feed to most clubs in the EPL, I feel like if it was as simple as is being suggested he'd have been away well before now.

Only kicks in during the last 12 months of his contract, seemingly.

Looks like a clickbait site.

All a bit speculative, no real substance I don’t think.

 

[Its-Sebo]

Fair enough. I suppose we'll soon find out, sounds a bit too convenient for me.

 

[wee_bear]

Might kick Palace into gear if they want him. If he’s going it would be better to be done now and recruit a replacement.

 

[dereksmallsloyal]

All a bit speculative, no real substance I don’t think.

Source says it’s 101% on. I make that 10% probability in real money.

 

[londonbluenose]

Whether it's Southampton, Palace or similar in the PL.

Think its quite clear big Joe will be away just hope it happens sooner rather than later

 

[londonbluenose]

Had Cousin not all but agreed to sign for Hull before he scored against Celtic, or was it in the following days it was agreed?

Good point actually. I'm not sure if Hull was all agreed but by all acounts Cousin wanted to leave and Walter told him to get a move with hes performance. He sure did

 

[SDF]

Where do we reckon he'll end up if it's a choice between Palace and Southampton ?

Does Vieira swing it for him ?

Palace look a decent side under him but Southampton seem to have stagnated for a few years now.

Palace would be my guess. South London boy and Viera hes idol

But money talks aswell I suppose

Palace.

For local reasons, and I think he’d suit them better.

Palace the better fit I would say.

 

[strider]

Straight choice between the two, no real differences in wages etc - Palace, definitely.

Location alone would swing that.

 

[UnionBear]

Let's get a deal done for Aribo ASAP and get the cash in while we can.

It's imperative that we see money coming in to kick start things.

 

[Now and forever]

There is a big world of players m8, there is no guarantee anyone comes in for him. Look at Alfie.

If they do then yes, he'll be off and if he's not for extending then i hope he is as we cant lose £10m for one season.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

If Joe has the choice I think it would be Palace and Viera. And I think that would be the right choice for him, I think he could flourish there. Their current style of play would suit him down to the ground.

 

[DeeGer10]

Personally i don't want Hong Kong investors owning and running the club

Too late, Julian Wolhardt is literally that (I know he's Danish/Hong Kong)

He neither owns or runs the club or have i missed a big announcement?

It is July 18th for QR3, August 2nd for the Play Off.

 

[brain]

£7m+
If think we can safely file this one in the out of our price range category

Into his last 12 months so not necessarily. Especially as it could be funded by sales.

 

[Blue Steel]

Yep , his PHD wasn’t in heavy grief .

 

[Grigo Yossarian]

The more I think about it the more i want us to sell an asset purely so that can hopefully set in motions some deals.

It gives us more scope with the incoming deals CB, and hopefully allows better replacements for Joe & others who may leave ?

 

[JMCK]

It's now beginning to seem as if any transfers we may do will happen if we sell Aribo; I may be wrong, but it could be that it allows to gauge where we are better.

 

[Siberia1]

(Presume you missed that info)

Ah ok, I thought the £10m release clause was just speculation, hadn’t realised it had been confirmed.

How does it work if theres more than 1 club in for him though? Release clause is the minimum, but does a release clause stop a bidding war from happening, which could push the price well over £10m? I don’t know the answer, just curious. Also struggle to really see the benefit of these release clauses unless they are stupidly high figures, that the club basically expect never to be met.
