Well, they got suckered. It happens, you know. The real world is a cruel place.

It happens to us all the time.

Why should they get £16m back when they only paid Lyn Oslo £4m, was it?

They should only get the £4m back, if any. We had an agreement to sign Mikel, so they paid us a £12m fee which was the equivilant of a transfer fee. Therefore, that money is rightfully ours.

I think they're just being big-headed, arrogant and are a bunch of chancers.

If they do get thir £16m back, its a complete disgrace imo.
