Geertruida

[Shack]

Hopefully we can keep him for remainder of season with an agreement to buy and sell on to Liverpool in the summer. That would surely be acceptable to the lad.

 

[woodlebert]

They must be getting a massive loan fee from Liverpool if they are agreeing to pay us £3m-£4m to break the loan deal.

Is this reported?

 

[Randy Savage]

Well exercise our option IMO

And immediately sell for a few above that.

Good for PSR anarl.

Hope we’ve got somebody good lined up.

Hopefully someone lined up

I said on multiple occasions during the first half of the session, he should have been our first signing on January 1st. And absolute snip at £20m.
Alas, you snooze you lose.

He’ll want to play under his favourite manager and get in the World Cup team

Agreed, if we were able to sign him in January

I think Leipzig feel they undervalued him and after his time here and at Liverpool they’ll get more than £20m for him

Seems so but that’s only if Liverpool buy him which is debatable.

No idea if there is any truth in this or not mind.

Do we not have an option to buy though? Surely we could just trigger that and then they’d have to pay the price we want?

I think the player has the last say on these options to buy agreements!So no we wont be buying him.

Either that or we arent paying all his wages currently and Liverpool have agreed to.

We will never find out unfortunately

 

[Mowgli]

Can't blame Geertruida tbh. Sit here and be a bench player or go to Liverpool and play, including champions league and showcase yourself for a better move next season.

He's been great for us. I wish him well

 

[McMackem]

By the sounds of it, the option to buy would only have been enabled at the end of the season, otherwise I'd think this would be a no trainer.

He'll not stay fit if he doesn't train.

Its a strange situation for me - we have him on loan with an option to buy, but someone else comes in for him during the loan - makes both the loan and option weak. This is something that should (and for all we know is) tied up tightly in the legal aspects of the existing deal.

 

[Botchie]

It's frustrating, but could be something we have to get used to. Look at what's happened at Palace this season. 3 absolute key players lost who have probably had a bigger impact on them then what Geertruida will have on us.

 

[SurreyMackem]

No problem we have O9, seriously though I did wonder when O9 came on ahead of him the other week.

 

[Kev75]

Any idea who this new signing is who might be replacing him?

No

3-4m. Shafted.

I wondered when he played in the U21s and then definitely wondered when he didn’t start at West Ham. O’Nien coming on was confirmation something was up.

Wouldn’t be shocked to see that horsetoothed fuckwit involved somehow

 

[nhs99v]

so personal terms were sorted “days ago” hence why he never came on against WHU.

Tell the scouse fuckers £10m or fuck off. That’s what they got to release A-A a month early to play in the club World Cup for Rsal Madrid last year.

Always thought we wouldn’t sign him due to lack of minutes. Not happy.

The options to buy clauses are for the the loaning/buying club to secure their investment with respect to the loan fee ..they are always dependent on the players agreement at any stage ..so if the safc triggered the buy clause it would always require the players agreement.
