Moyes saying he expected salami deal to be done and woke up weds to find it was off and the loan deal didn’t go through because we couldn’t commit to the deal without seeing much of him play which I find strange as to why you would want him in the first place
I think Slimani hasnt been given a lot of chance. If you go to Leicester you must know you're going to be behind Vardy and the style of play that suits him (as with Spurs, you have to get past Kane).
However, unless it really was just a loan, then I think they would've asked a large fee. I'm happy we paid significantly less for Jordan. From his words I'd say he'll be 100% committed and give us a different dimension which may help Hernandez whilst Arnies out.
As I mentioned I’m happy with Jordan think he might just be one of those better suited to the premier league with better players around him just a hunch
On the season... It's been a bit on the traumatic side. However, I think Moyes will make us better and there have been signs of that already.
Once Arnie, Lanzini are back (we'll also have Reid and Fonte back soon) if Antonio can be injury free and turn up on time (with no attitude if rumours are to be believed) I can see
Arnie Jordan Antono with Lanzini Mario behind being pretty decent
Adrian Byram Reid Ogbonna Cresswell Arthur (Rice Fonte Zab Ginge) Mario Lanzini Kouyate Nobes (Obiang Zab again in short term) Antonio Jordan Arnie (Hernandez Carroll maybe. His wages off bill would be good though)
I think we have the makings of a creative and powerful team going forward. A couple of signings in the summer (maybe even DM ;wink ). I wonder on Carroll and Antonios future. We'll also need another GK (Hart wages off bill would be nice too) Despite not wanting Moyes, I think he'll do a good job
Dendoncker, who Moyes has said we were after, was available at £18m.
Am I missing something?
I'd imagine that an offer for Allen was probably structured over the term of the contract, less up front, performance dependant clauses, etc. Which is essentially what we offered for Dendoncker but were rebuffed.

Is 'Adrián San Miguel del Baztillo' too long a handle Grey?
