Yeah possibly but I don't think a lack of expenditure could do that as we didn't spend because we actually couldn't spend, it apparently wasn't available. Possible sales will help obviously but we are being told that we need to sell these players, it's not a choice as such. However, if we can do some of these deals then great, it gives us a chance of putting a stronger squad together at a time when I didn't think it would be possible 👍 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They hold all the cards as we need to sell. They will only do it in their own time, when they are comfortable with it all. West Ham's bids for other GK's could either be genuine or an attempt to force us to renegotiate the deal more in their favour. Link to post Share on other sites
estonpidge 1,442 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 someone said think it was SDS that they had tried to renegotiate the deal and we said no. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Well their 'renegotiation' supposedly involved a loan deal to the end of the season which doesn't solve any problem we need to solve by selling him. Very little point in us loaning him, we might as well keep him unless they're 100% obligated to buy. Otherwise we can't even be sure we can re-invest the transfer fee until the summer.

Just seems like posturing to encourage them to buy him. He's not playing in either game, and he happens to be right nearby for the whole week. Link to post Share on other sites

I concur with Lurker. I would say that and the fact they are bidding on other GKs I would say he will be here until summer and probably back as first choice Link to post Share on other sites
Johnmfc81 902 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) I don't get how Randolph's injury isnt that bad that he can still be our number 1 keeper but not OK to be westhams 2nd choice keeper. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He’s already under contract. If they buy him, having failed their medical, I highly doubt they could get insurance for him. Ours won’t be affected Link to post Share on other sites

Especially when Jack Wilshire can pass a West Ham medical! I think their offer of £7 million for Etheridge was turned down, which will only highlight how good value for money Randolph is at £4 million. Link to post Share on other sites
