You sir, is a great diplomat....................I would have gone with dumb.Some brave fuckers in here today.

Positive. Understandable that it's taking it's time.Prof said
As far as I know (which may well be much less accurate than info from other ITKs), the situation hasn’t changed. Tapsoba’s price is closer to, but not yet at, our ceiling. The van de Ven deal is ready to be finalized. Possible, but not probable to do both until an outgoing or two.

In which case why wouldn't you finalise the VDV deal right now and then go for Tapsoba if and when we get some players out the door? It's not like the 2 are playing for the same club and mutually linked with some sort of double deal?Prof said

Echos what I've heard tbf.
It sounds like VDV deal is there to be done, but Tapsoba needs more negotiation. If we were happy with just either one then we would sign VDV, however my impression is that Tapsoba is the one we really want and so we don't want to settle for second best in the event we only sign one of them.In which case why wouldn't you finalise the VDV deal right now and then go for Tapsoba if and when we get some players out the door? It's not like the 2 are playing for the same club and mutually linked with some sort of double deal?
You could even argue us signing VDV now and going for Tapsoba later would slightly strengthen our stance as we won't be seeming desperate for a CB having already got one.
If the case is Tapsoba is first choice then sort out that deal first and worry about VDV later when we shift some players.
Not liking this keeping 2 players we clearly need in limbo, we are literally just waiting for other clubs to swoop in for either, can't imagine VDV is too happy right now if we've agreed everything money wise and just leaving him hanging.
Rather than hoping for both we will end up with neither.
Keeping VDV waiting is not a good tactic. Sooner or later, someone else is going to come along and steal him or he's going to get frustrated and sign an improved contract with his current club.
Good news no more melt downEchos what I've heard tbf.
My guess is because we’re not really after both. It’s just one we’re looking to get.In which case why wouldn't you finalise the VDV deal right now and then go for Tapsoba if and when we get some players out the door?
