    If we end up suing MGW and also not selling him that would be impressive work even for Forest when they were peak crazy.

    We do like to put on a show though.

    Apparently the same thing happened with Arsenal and Suarez, and Chelsea and Olise. In both cases the deal collapsed and the player stayed.

    I thought with Suarez the clause was that he had to be informed of any offer over £40m. Not that it had to be accepted. So Liverpool informed him and then turned it down. MGW sounds like an actual release clause.

    Given it’s confidential and no-one even knew of its existence until 24h ago, it’s a bit of a reach to be speculating on the differences between Suarez and MGW’s contract…..

    Gibbs-White being booked for a medical seems to be a bit of a tell.

    No-one would have bid 60M for Morgan unless they knew there was a release clause. So if Spuz weren't so Scrooge-like, they could have gone with 65M and no-one would have been the wiser, and no conspiracy of coincidence.
    But instead, presumably Morgs' agent let it slip which potentially means the release clause would be invalidated.
    That would suck for Morgs, but, frankly, his wellbeing isn't my number 1 concern here.

    Saw a picture of him in a barcode strip. A little bit of sick came up into my mouth.

    Interesting comparison (if old) to the MGW situation.

    Hopefully we can get some compensation.

    Liverpool ended up paying an extra 20K, and Ziege 10K, so maybe keep your hopes low.

    I thought that they were the fa fines and there was an out of court settlement between Middlesbrough and Liverpool

    Apparently we've had a 26M bid for Richard Rios turned down by Palmeiras. Wolves and Roma also had offers rejected.

    Xavi Simons (who I would buy as a replacement for MGW) is there and he was with Yohan at PSV. Makes sense if he goes there.

    Maybe we can buy simons and Babayoko will suddently go "ooh me mate is going to Forest...sounds good to me.." and hop off the medical table like that Deijbor fellow (or however you spell it).

    We might be after anothrer Botofogo player, the winger who didn't go to Lyon. Apparently very good but who knows as I have never seen him play and I know talent....(oo-er).

    Today though is all about Morgan unfortunately. So get that sorted first and then we can move on...
