Doesn?t matter at this stage, we have 3 years to prove to him we can match his ambitions.

If that isn?t looking likely by end of next season, then ?130m might be acceptable!

But if he has another outstanding season then maybe ?201m should cover us especially after the very public manner of the way they are expressing their interest ��
the Talk Sh!te mongs all played down talk about anything more thank the 120m quid mooted Scouse bid. The Muppets in Chief, Cundy and O'Hara 'there's a pecking order in the Prem and all player want to play for the big clubs.'

That is precisely contradictory to the reality of competition. Unless they are saying out loud the bit they aren't supposed to be telling the general public that the whole thing is rigged.

The lad's gonna sit down with Eddie after the Celtic match as planned and negotiate the new contract. It will be what he wants to keep him happy. None of the squad are gonna be upset if Alex becomes the top earner at the club.

With a new contract the transfer fee is only going to increase / be come unattainable which is the point.

What is clear is that Newcastle United will not be pushed around by anyone. Disappointed not to get the lad but it appears that 3 times not the charm.

Takes Liverpool out of the picture for a striker.

One less Fraudie to worry about. On to the Sesko saga! haha
