Woodward is still a tit however... Interesting...forget the honours bit as you can't compare them given one played with Messi and one played with Pelle. The Sun have claimed a "hijack". This may make people to think differently.

i definitely don't think it was a hi-jack. think it had more to do with LVGs uncertainty about whether pedro was the right guy, and ultimately we happily let chelsea complete the deal.
it wouldn't surprise me if we had the personal details all agreed (and probably signed, subject to fee being agreed with barcelona) only for us not to agree the fee.
nobody knows, but the reports were that it was imminent for weeks. i fully believe we let it die. the club's silence however, allows everybody to take the piss out of them.
seeing on all of these "banter" sites via facebook etc that we've "lost out on":
firmino ings benteke pedro otamendi kane bale ramos muller
basically anybody the press said we want that we didn't actually sign we are now being ridiculed for.

I don't think we pulled out. I think Woodward fucked about too much, whether that was with Louis' help or not I'm not sure but we fannied about too much and now we're trying to save face.

I had to look up whether Mane would be cup tied when starting today, here are the rules:
Worried supporters have watched on as names linked with a move to their side have played in European competition, potentially ruling the target out of playing in Europe for them or, worse, a deal collapsing as a result. However, UEFA regulations however can clear a player to play for two clubs in Europe in any given season, based upon an exception which applies to participation in the qualifying rounds. Rule 18.07 states that if a player features in the first, second or third qualifying rounds of either the Champions League or Europa League, he can play for another club in either competition from the group stages onwards, provided his former employers do not reach the group stages themselves. If a player is involved in any of the aforementioned qualifying rounds for a side which then goes on to play in the group stages of either UEFA competition, he is not eligible to play for another club in Europe in that season.
There is a common misconception regarding rule 18.19, which states that from the knockout stages, a player cannot be registered to play for another club if he has already played in the same competition that season, or if his previous side remain in that competition. However, this rule does not mean that a player would be able to play in the group stages for his new club, and then find suddenly himself ineligible to play in the knockout stages. Provided a player’s former side were eliminated prior to the group stages, and the player was then registered to play in the groups of either competition for his new club, he is free to continue playing in the knockout rounds of either the Champions League or Europa League.
