Will be at the request of all parties I would imagine. I said a while ago that we wont get burnt on transfer speculation like we have in the past. An awful lot is getting kept behind the scenes now, far more professional.

Yeah deffo the best way to act in the window like, like you say hopefully it's mutual agreement of both clubs and it works out in the end !

It certainly would mind, as I said somewhere else, with me pessimistic Sunderland supporting gene I am expecting Shaun Wright Phillips and Tom Ince to rock up anytime soon :)

:eek: There should be a shudder smilie:lol: This guy would be a belting signing. My innate pessimism has also stopped me from getting to far ahead of myself mind. As you and others have said though, the Dutch paper seems legitimate. I'll self combust if we do sign him...:cool:

You seem sound and I follow you on that there twitter but when you say a bid has been made, where do you have confirmation of this if things are as you say "being kept behind the scenes" can you be honest and say if this is just according to some usually accurate journos?

Just my usual source mate. Things are trying to be kept behind the scenes but as always, information leaks. Normally, both clubs like the deal to be near to completion before big announcements are made. Stops other clubs coming in at the last minute etc. Also, if the player rejects, we can move on without credibility/reputation taking a hit. Think that is more the case under LC.

Any idea if this has been the case so far this Summer with anyone?

As you know, I've no doubts about your info mate but is it not in a selling club's interest to try and initiate a bidding war if they're resigned to losing a player?

that is another way of looking at it. I am assuming that any denial would be at our request, due to the reasoning already posted. However, it maybe the case that we are the club that is closest to their valuation of the player and therefore, we can make stipulations.
 
Dare say there is a mutual respect between psv and advocaat so the public denial maybe a case of at our request. Time will tell but tho has a feeling of the giaccherini transfer about it. Nobody dared to believe it could happen.

Aye, if we're in a position to be making those sorts of requests then it bodes well for the deal getting done. :)
