I'm not on Facebook or Instagram though.

Jack, this kid is my ultimate dream signing. The only player that could ease my pain about Vidal. If people thought my love for Jovetic was over the top, that was nothing compared to this

I'm ok with a buyback clause as long as it can't be activated before 2018, and for no less than 80 million Euros :D
I was just going to ask, what is it that people dislike in particular about the buyback clauses? I assume mostly because they think it makes us look like a small club? I suppose a loan to buy deal would be much more acceptable, however. Or buying a flop from another big team, perhaps? Maybe it's the number that the buyback fee is set at.

If you get a player as potentially good as Götze for at least two seasons and then a big chunk of money afterwards (to spend on another buyback player :beppe:) I'm not sure how it equals some sort of "disaster". The selling club isn't going to accept a potentially astronomical buyback clause, they might as well just sell the player in that case, there has to be some mutual benefit. We got Morata for less than others offered because a) he wanted to come here, and b) the clause we offered.

The reality is that we aren't a financial powerhouse running all over the market with a big swinging cock and balls, it seems this still hasn't quite hit home to everyone.

BTW, nice to see you back :tup:

Buy clause for Gotze equals a loan cuz we know 100% it will be activated and he'll want to go back.

After such a good start to our mercato we had to go provincial again...
It's a great thing that we finalized all our deals before July though so that the team will gel in pre-season, having an advantage over the others.

Then we only act on opportunities on the market, eating popcorn while we watch others panic.

I am not against it per se, but for a specific duration and a reasonable amount of money. It is essentially a 2-3 year loan (most players stay for 4-5 years and then move on anyway; the market is far more volatile in the modern game). I know it makes us look "provincial" in the eyes of some, but if that mentality leads to more titles, and potentially the much sought after and coveted CL crown, I am all for it.

Good to be back :D :beer:

I am really looking forward to the new season. Between work, the gym, animes, movies, series, reading, and football, I am not sure if I will even have time to sleep.

:lol: Are you impersonating Hustini just for the sake of sarcasm or did you buy a great big blunt from @Fr3sh?
