Don’t worry Rich...new Tiereny bid incoming...another 500k plus £2,500 for every goal line clearance he makes.

It seems that Arsenal actively anger other teams with their offers. I understand negotiation but we seem to confuse this with being offensive to other clubs.

Any adult in a business environment who is 'angered' by an offer needs to be gassed before he infests the gene pool with his dribbling idiocy.

But what if the offer is dewisowy, paltwy, egwegious and totawwy diswespectfuw?

Rhotacism is funny.

It's all a negotiating stance. Nobody really gives enough of a **** to be angered.

Quite, £40m for a 27 yr old that failed miserably the last time he took a step up, seems pretty fair to me and deep down Palace probably know they won't get a lot more for him.

Considerably less piss takey than the £4m we offered for my BiL when Everton wanted £16m

Liverpool comes to mind (what are they smoking at The Emirates) with Suarez. Celtic and Palace this summer.

We offered Suarez's contractrelease clause....so Liverpools blustering was a smoke screen

we have offered Celtic a record for a scottish player to move to England and not far off the highest ever tfr fee received for any player to move to England

Palace are so angry they are trying to buy Jenkinson off us...wow they must be livid with us
