Players will go to clubs who will reward them financially

Obviously we were not prepared to do that for Emi. Although I think an exception should've been made. Sarr at Watford would've been in a similar situation last summer yet he didn't treat Watford as a stepping stone. They priced him at 40 million and scared off clubs. We loosely priced Emi at 30 which is ridiculously low considering what we would need to do to replace him adequately.

    - He had a contract here that we could've forced him to honour (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Dec 27, 17:24:28
      - That's not reality tho. (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Dec 27, 17:25:34

        Lol, imagine Emi this season if forced to stay (NCFC) - Azteca, Dec 27, 18:00:31
        
        also there would be the risk that he would struggle in the Prem (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Dec 27, 18:23:36
        
        Where's the proof of this promise that he could leave? (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Dec 27, 18:12:20
