He may very well does (and I hope he does), but nothing is confirmed. There was nothing official about us getting Berardi in Zaza's deal or even have first preference in the first place. It's all hypothetical.
Why are we assuming that he only wanted Sevilla? Is this another fact I'm missing out on?

What's funny is that the guy is an Ibra fan.
As I said, somehow we seem to end up in such situations much more than other clubs for some reason. One has to start thinking that maybe, just maybe, it's got to do with our negotiating skills.
Yes, but if we're on a "tight budget" as we claim we are, we can't let things like this happen, and it does happen often enough with us. We can't cry because we can't buy top quality players and sell our players for free in this market.
That's the whole point. Why leave it for the last week to sell deadwood, especially since we already made huge investments and brought in A LOT of new players already?
