The January Transfer Window thread 2022 - That's all folks!

I think if we are benchmarking I would go with:

if JLS is worth 2,00,000 Tav is worth 200,000,000.

You've got to remember Payero's sources for this. Any random person on twitter could have said it and made him this confident.

I googled bid Marcus tavernier and this was the second search

I remember the interest, but 3 rejected bids doesn't really suggest we wanted to sell.

The fact he signed a new long term contract a few months later would also further disprove Payero's latest round of twaddle.

I was more showing how easy it is to be ITK. Article also says we turned down Watford.

I just hope he puts a few more "shop window" performances in for a big PL club comes calling

I like tav and want him to stay but he's vastly over rated by some of our fan base, quotes of 15m are quite frankly ridiculous. 

Just out of interest, why do you think that Leeds want him then?  Presumably if they do then they also overrate him?

It’s quality isn’t it. Half of them slag him off saying how overrated and rubbish he is and then are trying to sell him in their heads to premier league outfits. Utterly mental logic. He’s a good player and to me it’s fairly obvious he will stay unless an extraordinary bid comes in which at this point and in this particular window I would say will be unlikely

Yeah, I don't really get it either.  Tav has been talking to Leeds for weeks, which suggests they are seriously interested in him, but there's no way we could get decent money for him, and well, he's crap anyway so who cares.  Yet pick some random name out of a hat for us to spend a few million on and they absolutely love it.

Supposedly going to spend all the Tav money on Cameron Jerome from Luton, pacey forward and wants a 5 year deal.

According to what?  The voices in your head?

Was there anything in that Davide Santon link? Seems to have gone quiet in that. Not particularly bothered mind but was certainly a bit of a random one for someone to make up

Think that came from @Payero's Italian cousin.

sorry i know its not the greatest of sources but they have got a few stories about us right of late before most. Mail saying its a straight loan and we are covering a portion of wages and not all.
