£18.5m bid for Croatian goalkeeper apparently. Seems a lot for a back-up keeper.

Journalists here in France are saying that no firm bids have yet been made for Mahrez.
 
Theres no way we would pay that for a back-up keeper, i can only see Man U as a possible move for Kasper. It appears Mahrez is not at training therefore im guessing hes in talks with Arsenal

There's only 14 of them there today - are you suggesting that all the other missing players are also in transfer talks with other teams

Mahrez and the rest of the players who played international football after the season ended are allowed more time off. If Mahrez has a deal lined up with Arsenal I doubt we see him at the training ground again. If we do it means he's been left hanging.

The keeper rumour is interesting though. This is a keeper who only cost 3m last season, had a good season and now we're offering 20m. That would say to me that Kasper is out of the door. Surprising as I thought Kasper was one of the few who wouldn't need to move for his ego. If he's off to Manchester I can only see it ending in tears and the beanch for him. Still if we're offering 20m for this guy then we must be getting over 30m for Kasper.
 
I have a contract with my business that means I can't leave for 12 months.

I can't **** off to the firm around the corner and negotiate a great new deal to begin tomorrow. I can't because I have a contract. I'd need permission.

Mahrez has years to run on his contract. He can't go and negotiate, because like me, he needs permission. LCFC have not received or accepted any offers for our star part-timer. They won't give permission for anything until they at least agree some heads of terms.

When they do receive an offer they can decide if they want to dispose of him. He doesn't get to decide, nor should he.

I had a contract like that with a large chemical conglomerate. I got it cancelled in the space of 6 hours by being a ****. It's amazingly easy to do.

Maybe he'd like to play CL football year in year out.

I disagree. He'd easily be Man City's number one keeper right now if he went there. If De Gea leaves United then he'd easily be number one there also.

There's no doubt in my mind that Kasper will leave during this window. It'll be very sad, but you can't blame him. He's now 30 years old, been here for six seasons, is one of the top 4 Premier League goalkeepers, and on top of all that he produced some sterling performances in the CL last season. He should be playing CL football every year.

Whilst I can see what you're saying, I don't think he'll go to Man City, as they've already spent big on a goalkeeper this summer.

Recently, I've seen more rumours for Hart to Man Utd, than I have for Schmeichel. It will be interesting to see what happens, anyway.

Man Utd would definitely be the more feasible out of the two. Especially considering his dad's recent comments about how he dreams of his son playing there one day...

I heard an interview on the radio the other day, with Peter, talking about Kasper. He was obviously saying he'd be proud if that happened (when questioned about it) and that he felt Kasper had played well enough to be targeted by clubs of that stature, but he was also extremely complimentary about us and said how much he loved the club and the way it was run. I thought he came across pretty well.

He can't, but his agent can.

I'm sure you didn't have to pretend or try hard.

I can blame whomever I wish to blame, it's the beauty of living in a developed country.

If he leaves, breaking his contract, he's a wanker.

If he gets to Manchester United he'll not see the season out.

It appears as though we're touting around for a back up keeper. We've been linked with a few now so we obviously know that Zieler is on his way and, quite rightly, we're eyeing up alternatives. If we called his club and got quoted that price, I'm pretty sure the phone went down sharpish. I cannot imagine that there is any more to this story than that.

No reason or indication to think that Schmeichel is moving on. He can't do any better than us and we can't do any better than him. I remain bewildered by anyone that seriously considers him to be a target for the likes of the two Manchester clubs. Chris Weale has as much chance of playing for Man Utd as Kasper does.
