    A vote of no confidence at the next AGM would do it..

    It’s not Dembele tbh, it’s a pattern of behaviour, maybe not for this thread..

    The possible scenario in my mind would be

    Talented player with good potential going cheap. We sell ourselves to him as a club that can give him plenty of game time, European football and a chance to catch the eye of the big clubs in England. We can show him our track record of improving players and getting them big money moves. We tell him we will sell him after 2 years all going well. To make this work for us we need him to sign a 4 year contract to maximise our fee.

    What about a sell out clause. At the time when an outstanding player like VVD was going for £12million then anything over £15million would have seemed ridiculous. So not inserting a buy out clause would in hindsight have been the correct thing to do

    If something like this happened them reneging on the deal could backfire on us.

    Only guess work but it's the type of scenario that would make us very attractive to emerging talent

    I could be wrong, but it seemed like you suggested that Edouard was bought to replace Dembele? That would leave us with two.

    If Dembele left before the close of the window we would need to bring someone else in, especially with Griffiths struggles with his calf injuries.

    This is the least Leone Naka Fan post I have ever seen, usually you want some 6'7 Korean soldier up front!

    I guess I never spoke enough about my hatred of transfers that go to waste. I want Christie to be given a chance, so we may fix the defense first. If you want a Korean, I did suggest one in the Non-Media Rumor thread- after someone mentioned Hooper. Not a giant, but is scoring plenty at the Asian Games.:fear:

    Look at the absolute state of Congerton.

    He's the sort of * who sits alone playing with his phone or iPod in a room full of other people.
