Age. He's just turned 28. Perfect for a player at the top of his game but if clubs are looking at it in pure financial terms then that's going to be depreciate pretty damn quickly. I'd still take him and could negotiating on that figure see it drop to £50-55m ? Possibly.£63m ? how has he not been snapped up by any of the big clubs already ??
Yep. Almost done it seems, for £70m.Arent they after Morata?
I doubt that would stop them.Arent they after Morata?
I've been forced to drink Carling for the last week. CARLING!!!
It's inhuman!
I thought they used Fosters for putting out fires ? Is that what you mean by air-dropped ?I feel like you should be air-dropped some emergency good beer as part of a UN relief initiative,
Ahhh, that would explain the existence of Fosters in the universe. I've always wondered.I thought they used Fosters for putting out fires ? Is that what you mean by air-dropped ?
Yeah, better than a goal every other game for an eighteen year old striker.85 in 125 isn't as impressive as I thought. I expected it to be 100

Fucking hell pat.
Ahhh, apologies, I thought I was in the mbappe (marquee signing thread) when I wrote that reply. My bad.He's 28 no?
I didn't mean his bad or even average but the way some want him I expected his stats to be on par with the very best
Don't get me wrong he's still quality I just thought his stats were on Suarez levelAhhh, apologies, I thought I was in the mbappe (marquee signing thread) when I wrote that reply. My bad.
Any striker offering a goal every two games has generally been regarded as amongst the best though.
I think if we're gonna spend silly money it'll be on a player a bit younger, but who knows.

Stats of a top forward playing for Dortmund will never equal stats playing for Barça.
Suarez' s record for Liverpool got him what was close to a world record fee, after two biting incidents and while suspended for one of them, not to mention his sanction for 'racism'.His stats aren't even Suarez level at Liverpool in his last season.

All reports are he is going to China for £500k a week.I badly want us to sign him and there's more to it than just personal stats. He and Klopp know each other and worked tremendously well together when Klopp was still at Dortmund, he's as perfect a fit for Klopp's style as there could be and he could therefore hit the ground running, from which the whole team would get a huge boost.
I would be very surprised if he did. The Govt. have just slapped a 100% tax on any foreign imports - which would mean his fee would be (to the club) at the very least ca. €150m + salary.All reports are he is going to China for £500k a week.

That is the first time I've seen the 'clubs in debt' mentioned before. That's highly selective, and bourgeois, for a communist govt. !According to this it's clubs that are in debt, that must match transfer fee with a donation to the development of the game. There's going to be ways round it.
