[Albion] Where is Alexis going? (Liverpool - for an undisclosed fee...)

[pasty]

35 bloody quid

Barber Out

I still can't believe we've had a World Cup winner in the team.

Good luck Alexis, a well deserved move.

I can only imagine the looks of confusion of all the Reds fans who got sucked into Romano's £35m line as they figure out what the other 20 mil is for

 

[Bozza]

I'm not crying, you're crying...

 

[Uh_huh_him]

It seems clear the "release clause" was a mechanism which specified £35m cash and add-ons to be negotiated based on our valuation of the player. So it both is and isn't a release clause.

Interesting that Fibz is one of the few sources that still hasn't referred to the add-ons on this deal ( he has on other deals).
I think Naylor may have got under his skin.

Wait, I missed the cat pics, is it too late for me to join in? This is Geri, and yes, she's judging you.View attachment 161955

He is the epitome of class. You can tell he’s written that himself, it’s not been written by a social media bod, and it comes from the heart.

Will always love Alexis and want him to do well.

Bloody glad to see this thread get back on track after it was derailed.

For as good as we are finding these talents I’m f***ed if we are not non league when it comes to selling them

 

[SteveU]

Gutted to lose Mac but nothing but respect for the way he has handled the whole situation.

 

[GT49er]

That's more like it! Liverpool still have a bargain, mind, but that's not a bad deal for us either. I guess that Romano character's supporters will now claim how right he was in saying the fee would be 'a lot less than' the £60M figure suggested (well £5M is a lot to some of us!) but I'm bloody glad his '£35M' was absolute bollox - that would have rankled for a while had it been correct.

Yeah, we really messed up by making massive profits on White, Cucarella, Trossard, Bissouma, Burn and Mac Allister. Non league, as you say.

 

[elwheelio]

This one is painful. Good luck to him, understandable that he'd want to go but I'm still sad he's gone. Great player, great guy. Will be missed.

 

[SeagullinExile]

Thanks Alexis. But no room for sentimentality in football. We move on to the next one.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

The curse of the song continues

Buonanotte’s on my mind and he’s Brightons Argentine

 

[WhingForPresident]

Well at least it hasn't dragged on... Doesn't make it any easier to accept though. f***

Thank you for the memories Mac. Great player and a great guy.
