ONLY 16 mil eh?
Bit less than the 21 being bandied about.
Meanwhile I’m off to make a fortune recycling rubber bed sheets now that they won’t be needed

Where’d you get that figure? Undisclosed by the club, but not far off what was quoted in the press earlier this week. Those reports stated £17m up front, rising to £21m with addons.
There’s a video behind the link in the Tweet above where he explains why he’s come here.
I can’t link it at the moment, but will when it makes it to YouTube.
His English is good and he sounds like a bit of a thinker (for a footballer).
He states that he took a lot of time to think about where would be the best next step for him and decided it’s us. Cited the coach and the Director (Reed?) as additional reasons.
Exciting news 
I doubt we’ll see any more signings in this window, think I’d rather we stuck with Martina or chuck Yan Valery in if cover is needed at right back. Don’t think we need another striker, we’ve got plenty up front with the ability to bang in 12-15 per season, plus I would like to see Olamola get a bit of game time and see what he’s capable of, potential beast in the making.

Sadly only Liverhampton would pay more than £20m for him…looks like we’re stuck in that Bargain Basement for yet another season. <sob>

I was going to upvote your aqua post but then you brought attention to it and it would have taken the sincerity out of it. No one upvoted my David Hasselhoff post either but you don’t see me getting upset at the shit-peddling twatfaced know-nothing philistines on here, it didn’t bother me one bit.

Great news and in 2 years he’ll be far to expensive for Liverpool and Spurs(they can’t even afford Zaha). I truly believe we will see great things from Boufal.

Nobody upvotes my Golf Posts but people have the NERVE to ask for upvotes on Aqua? FFS?
