As I feared ........

Saido is apparently planning a revenge transfer whereby Albion would only get about £800,000 for all their investment in him.

We were not the villains in this saga, Spurs turned his head, filled him full of promises, then came in with an under valued offer spread over a number of instalments which would have prevented us getting a suitable replacement. If they offered the right valuation with say 80% up front he would have been playing for spuds and England. When we would not surrender to the might of London he sulked. His anger should be aimed at spurs but no we will lose out big style.

He plans to sign a pre contract with a foreign club, go there for a short while then transfer back to the premier league thereby triggering fifa's compensation rules rather than the FA's.

I hate spurs, I hate levy.

If that is his plan, then I say don't pick him for match day squads, don't play him in the under 23's, make him train on his own away from the club and publicise all of his disruptive behaviour, show him for the maggot in the Apple that he is. See how well his career goes when he does not play any kind of football until the end of his contract.

Look how toxic ballotelli has become ...... Saido is just the same..

I have always supported him but if this is his plan it shows what an ungrateful little f####r he really is and we're better without ........

Totally agree, Eva.
I couldn't believe how fat his arse was when he came on last Sunday, and I wondered what Mark Hughes must have thought.
I'd tell Yacob to mark him in training to work a bit harder on his reckless tackling.

Just had an idea ...... if we don't play him we could stand him in the back of the opposition net, the rest of the squad must surely want to hit him, this would increase the number of our shots that hit the target, currently we can't hit a cows arse with a banjo how about hitting a saido's arse ........ by all accounts it's as large as a cow's arse..

So is this plan just someone's gossip? Where did you hear it?

Has SB been named now as the player involved? I ask because I posted the below on the 31st August and wondered then if he was talking about Berahino, but no names where given in the interview.

Interesting studio interview with "Super Agent" who claims to be aware of a deal being done behind the scenes involving two English clubs. The story involves an English player who has been trying to get a move and is valued between £20-30 million. The owner club does not want to sell so the plan is that an overseas club will take the player either at Christmas or if not in the following window, for which the owning club will get around £400,000 in compensation, then after the 6 months the player will be sold to another English club at a knock down price.

I wonder who he was talking about??

I have a football app on my phone called fotmob there is a news story quoting the Birmingham mail about saidos complicated plan to transfer to the premier league via a foreign club to avoid compensation and get a better deal.

Article by an Alex Dicken on the sixth updated on the seventh.

Yeh just found it in the daily diary (Mail).

The should be some sort of sanction the FA can put on the deal now that it is in the public domain and is obviously a move designed to disadvantage the club. That said if he is out of contract he is out of contract and is free to progress his career anyway he wishes. I would be surprised though if another Premiership club would be party to his little scheme, if true.

Who knows maybe the journalist did what I did, saw the interview and put 2 & 2 together and made 5.

In some ways though I don't blame SB totally, if I had been promised "twice" I could leave the club if I went out and worked and then the club renegade twice on that "understanding" , during, is it 3 or 4 windows now, I would be pretty P****d off as well

The club can only let him go if they get the true value offer ...... you would not sell a Bentley for the price of mini. You also would not sell if the value was met but in so many instalments and conditions that the actual price would be less. The true villains in this are spurs for tapping up players and agents with no qualifications in football encouraging their clients to be underhand and manipulative.

I agree that the clubs price has to be met, but as I remember with Berahino after the Summer antics with Spurs, he was promised that if he got his head together, he could leave at Christmas. We apparently did get an offer close to the asking price, but it then became "can't let you go just yet, keep your head down score some goals and you can go in the summer". Berahino then did that website release which said something like " I am going to get my head down score some goals to keep us up, then I am sure the fans will not mind, if I was to then move on to progress my career". That he did, sort of, now we are a year after that and we are still saying no, after at least two offers at the asking price. Now I fully understand and agree with the club position of we have to find a replacement first, but if you don't have a good look you will never find anyone.

That's why I can sympathise with his position a little.

A very valid argument well put Salop, and as much as I can see where you say Saido is coming from, to go out and deliberately orchestrate a move in such away that the club who found you, trained you and gave you everything you have from nothing get nothing, out of spite knowing that it will hinder other kids from coming thorough and hurt the fans who have adored you is despicable.

Be the better man, be honourable, transfer to a club of your choice but let the club that made you get some return on their investment. Your reputation amongst football fans is shot and may damage your future career because your toxic .....

Players now have all the power ... bosmans, run contracts down etc why would clubs pay larger transfer fees just unsettle your target, he will do the rest for you.

I am reaching a bad place with this saga and almost wish serious harm to befall him after all the harm he has done my beloved club, baggievicar, I seek your forgiveness although not quite in that bad place yet ..... COYB.
