I cannot believe any parent would say well son pSG are offering x (which is paper talk btw not reality) and Liverpool are offering x/5 should should work up to x son, over 5 years maybe.

The reality is.come what may if the wage is double anywhere else is over 5 years that's a life times money.

Any parent. Or any agent more to the point.

If someone came to me and offered me twice as much as I’m in now for the next five years, I’d be there in a heartbeat. Can’t knock him.

parent... leave agents out of it as they are only in it for pay off.

If you have a kid and they are offered 3x or 5x the money you'd tell them not to take it?
 
Rather he didn't
i doubt we are interested.

quality player but not a position we are desperate for.


He's not the position we need most. We have good cover in that position... However...

If he's really as good as the masses make out (I don't know, I haven't seen much of him)... If he really is in the makings to be as good as VVD... Then you have to sign them when they're available.

When we need a CB next, there might not be anyone close on the market. Get him long term now and we're golden in defence for the upcoming roaring 20's.

... Of course that's IF he's as good as people say.
 
At 19 he should be working his way up to that kind of money when he's rightly 'earned' it through hard work and dedication and not by having it fall in his lap.

If I was his parent I'd be advising him to do his 'apprenticeship' at the clubs that are going to develop him best as a player and a person. Look for the challenges not the easy wins.

Youre right, he should turn around to PSG and say thanks but if you can offer me only 100k a week I’ll accept it and in 5 years then give me the 340k <doh>

cmon, none of these players rightly ‘earn’ their money. They get given obscene money for s job most would do for a normal yearly wage but he’s not like he’s demanding that kind of money by sounds of it, in that case he has earnt it through hard work and his performances.
 
Whether we sign delight or not, I just can not see why he's worth 75mil and X amount a week.

He's a big lad and has scored a few headers, but so is Harry Maguire and wouldn't give a packet of crisp for him.

The rumours in the papers are quite frankly ridiculous, he's massively unproven, spurs tore past him with out an issue for **** sake.

I know what you mean. Maguire is a meat head and nothing more and cant believe a City would be in for him, Utd I can understand. He is also 26

De Ligt is 19 and captains Ajax. Physically dominant at such a young age, but can get up and down. Plus under Van Dijks care for Netherlands and Liverpool if we were to get him.

Personally I think our game is more suited to a Gomez and Van Dijk type. Pacey, can play the ball and fit the system. I think De Ligt can be that, but we dont need to spend £75m for something that we dont really need
