It would even serve as a way to shut him up! Because the lad would finally come to a club with superb training facilities, solid medicare, proper management, good wages, discipline and would be developed by a world class coach which can only improve his performances!


At least he won't be stuck in a boring league and at a club whose shameful standards involve helping young players achieve 0 goals and 0 assists in 6 appearances as a sign of development?

Funlord2:
Douglas costa and Renato sanchez told to find new clubs by bayern! Which of them is worth the punt since they would both be cheap?

Chelseafan1:
I would like to read what you think about Eden Hazard's style of play since you don't fancy the goalscoring CR7.

elampiro:
I didn't see the post where you said Bale is not worth that amount with analysis.

Again, that would be your opinion. Did you accept my analysis over several pages why I said Griezmann is not worth that much. You didn’t accept mine but you want me to accept yours.

You see what we are saying. It must be your own.

elampiro:
Even if Suarez cost £120m, Griezmann should still not be more than £60m

Suarez has been consistent since 2011/2012. Even before then, he was a problem to defence even when not scoring, like when he had problems with Evra. Going back to his Ajax days, you would see a consistent player for about a decade.

elampiro:
PietroRico thinks 86m for Griezmann is not outrageous while 90 million for Bale is outrageous. What is hypocrisy?

I think 70 million for Griezmann is outrageous. He keeps taking about the value of the player to the team. What makes him think Griezmann would add more value to our current team than Bale? What makes him think Griezmann would even add more value than Chicharito sef?

He talks like Griezmann has been here for three seasons and done 25 goals every season or 20 plus goals like Kane.

So we should all reduce ourselves to Pietrorico's definition of outrageous.

elampiro:
What is he saying? Griezmann is not outrageous for 86m due to his own rating that Griezmann is what will give us the EPL and UCL next season? He cannot attack other people who supported other expensive players, then come to force Griezmann on us and telling us not to attack as transfer fee us not our problem.

If I may ask, what makes Griezmann transfer fee at £80m+ not outrageous? Has he scored 25 goals plus for us or any EPL side for three seasons in a row? Even Suarez that the whole world was so sure he would bang in goals was not that expensive.

Pietrorico is applying double standard.

LoRdCaT:
All that one na long yarning. Did Rooney have any plan of retiring when he had his testimonial? isn't Rooney still being linked to other clubs? Beside carrick fixed his testimonial date before he was offered a new deal, Wetin come be the difference between Rooney's testimonial and carras'? The guy na jew simple. Na only confam Jew go ask that kind question

Yonce:
That guy is as stupiď as he is delusional

AdisaOwala:
Yes oh - as long as the club hierarchy isn't bothered and it wouldn't affect the possibility of buying other players ...

Danhumprey:
Gbam! as simple as that. the price shouldn't be a problem to us as far as the money is there. what is important is, is the player the solution we need? is he what we really want? or would he just be another addition to the ever expanding number of average players on our wage bill without solving the problems we have in the squad.

afrodoc2:
For now belotti is a 1 season wonder until he does it for multiple seasons.
I say Pogba for 89 is outrageous and Real Madrid also said so, but you say it is not and United agreed with you so it is a matter of opinion.
If posterity will judge then you should not criticize any fee, there should be no levels to it . Who decides what the levels are?
That a club has money does not mean you start wasting your funds buying players you do not need for fees that make no sense. It is about buying the right players that will help you build a team NOT just buying the most expensive players out there.
If the player is expensive but fits the needs of he team no one will complain. But just breaking transfer fees willy nilly without a clear cut plan won't take us anywhere.

LoRdCaT:
Him no know say Rooney don play testimonial? den no be football fan at all.

afrodoc2:
But the point is that what is outrageous is a matter of opinion.
To some Pogba for 89m is outrageous but to others it is no] .
Those that said nobody has any right to question the Pogba fee have no right to question any fee paid by the club for any future player. After all "is it your money"?
You can't pick and choose when to use that line because the appropriateness or outrageousness of a fee is a matter of opinion. E.g the release clause for a 1 season wonder like Belotti in my opinion is outrageous but if United pays it the "is it your money" proponents should not complain.

dopeJemi:
this adisaowala no get sense I swear

you and I know exactly what PietroRico is saying, you just no wan gree

AdisaOwala:
If the purchase of any player wouldn't affect our General spendings & the club is interested & willing to buy the player in question, we shouldn't bother ourselves with the price.

In the same vein, if Matic would cost 50m & Bale 100m, & those transactions wouldn't affect our transfer plans, you shouldnt kick against the club paying that kinda money for them since...

1.Those at the helm of affairs are not complaining..

2. that's what the transfer market is today.

AdisaOwala:


I swear na lie - the same reason you gave is what has always been on my mind.

It is only coincidental that British attackers usually have pace & power as their major strengths.

bigkesh:
You dey find trouble

AdisaOwala:
That post was crystal clear & you explained your submissions quite aptly...

The point is that, if the signature of one player wouldn't stop us from buying other players, we shouldn't bother ourselves about transfer fees.

AdisaOwala:
I agree with you - actually, I was never even in support of Bale's purchase 2-3 years ago when he was being linked with us (despite the fact that he was younger & probably fitter at the time).

But bro, let the club spend this moneyyyyyyyyy nah

AdisaOwala:
Pietro Rico??

bigkesh:
Its like our board don't even watch other teams plays,cause therebis no way you see games like yesterday and won't be gingered to do something

We don't even need to break world records to have a solid team.....Good scouting will do it

First own EPL by signing Alexis and Van Dijk,then Nabil Keita(A MUST!!!!!!!!!) and Tolisso,I heard Dani Alves might join us

Apart From Bale and Ronaldo,there is no player in that team Madrid bought that,that is beyond our spending power.




Alves........Dijk......Andreas........Ake

...........Keita..........Kante.........Tolisso

.........Dembele....Sanchez.........Hazard


Our bench can have players like Paredes,Fabregas,Willian,Baker,Chalobah,Luiz,Alonso and co.........We can start from here next season

Debroslink:
Zidane will soon start having enemies from epl starting with Madrid vs Man United

By the time Madrid vs Chelsea comes up and Chelsea loses in controversial scenes, you'll come here to change your words above.

Debroslink:
As he's yet to coach an EPL side, he's overrated. That will be the EPL fans' logic very soon.

AdisaOwala:


But I think Zidane has the last laugh though - his decision not to "waste" money all in the name of "strengthening" his midfield paid off afterall..
