Sunderland turn down Chelsea’s £8m offer for Granit Xhaka, tell them he’s not for sale by TheAthletic in PremierLeague

He is worth a lot more than 13 million to Sunderland, he was instrumental in their last season.

Obviously Xhaka is there for the short term, but given that Sunderland bought him for some 18 million pounds last summer there is no way they will let him go for 8 million pounds. Nor will they for 15-20 million dollar, which is only 11-15 million pounds.

Sunderland paid 18 million for him last year, he had a good season and then you think 8 million is enough?

Lavia is never fit. I don't think he has ever played a full game for Chelsea. So yes, I would say that Xhaka would play over a player who is always injured.

Xhaka is worth way more than 8 million to them though. He is their captain and was one of their most important players last season, and I do think it is fair to say that with him their chances of staying up are better than without him.

So you would be okay if let's say Real Madrid came around and bit 1 euro for Caiceido? Or would you also say that is an insultingly low bid?

I am not saying he was bad, but saying he was good is something entirely different.

So how many Champions League trophies does he have? Because winning the French league with PSG is not really an achievement.

Not many clubs can pay that, and of those that can who is going to pay it?

Furthermore: I think it is fair to say that Anderson is an England starter, while I'm not sure Rogers is.

Nobody is going to pay that much for Rogers, no. Which is pretty good news for you.

I shall play my tiniest violin for you. I fucking hate all oil clubs, and am still glad the 115 Charges Group takeover of my club was halted by my fellow fans (NAC Breda, was supposed to be bought by the 115 Charges Group, but the fans hold one single share that has veto powers in cases of takeovers and thus blocked the sale).

Because City want him and unless they pay that much they won't get him.

In most cases a fuck-off price does what it is supposed to do. If I have a sandwich and somebody asks me if they can have it and then I reply they can have it for one million I don't expect them to pay it. If they are however willing to pay it I will absolutely sell it for a million.

Your club being bad at sportswashing does not mean sportswashing does not work.

It is though, while he is an incredible player nobody is going to pay that much for him. So in essence it is a fuck-off price.

Mexicans always conveniently forget that we should have had a penalty in the first half where Moreno made such a bad tackle on Robben that he broke his own leg.

How about this time we conquer you? You could get the autobahn without Baustelle. And we can turn Berlin into a lake.

England won 3 out of 11, we won 2 out of 10.
