Yes I do but whatever the detail I don't believe we can compete with Fulham on wages because we aren't getting £50 million over 4 years like they are. What we've seen here is some serious hardball negotiating from both sides, and a good outcome for both parties. Credit too goes to Gordon...

I disagree. The agent would have earned more with a fee from a £6 mill transfer than a renegotiated contract. The club were in a strong position having signed Hunemeier and Goldson too, and flexed their muscles by fining Dunk 2 weeks wages. I'm in no doubt he would have earned more at Fulham...
