yes I know but the same level of hysteria wasn't there either. suso was on my watch list for sure as a genuine two footed player.
Absolutely. Poor guy aged 10 years in 3 IMO. Reminded of that old Benny Hill sketch of when they wheeled in the little old bald guy who looked about 90 with a nubile 19-year-old as his new bride who he'd married a month ago. "How old is he?". "34".
God, we're soooo cheap. Don't get me wrong, £50m is a lot for a 19-year-old (including Bellingham, btw), but just trimming around the edges is like the ****ing haggling scene from Life Of Brian.
if we buy him nobody will remember this in a months time. if we don't buy anyone there will he he'll to pay.
Bayern have done similar for Kane. Nobody is slating them. £50m is a lot for an unproven 19 year old, it’s normal that we are cautious. We are not Chelsea.
West sham buy two expensive older English players. safe, uninspiring but a better spend of rice money than getting 2 foreign players for 100mil and not knowing what level you get. at least this way we all know they will be crap but dangerous on frees.
BREAKING: West Ham and Everton officials are having a medical after being interested in signing Harry Maguire.
if Everton had 60million somehow they would Defford by the free kick taker and then pair Maguire and tarkowski they just need a diver and then 6 defenders more.
have arsenal ran out of room to maneavure with ffp? 3mil loan fee to Brentford with option to buy at 27 mil and raya even signed a 1 year extension at Brentford to make it happen. very very generous of the Brentford board imo.
No brainer for arsenal that. Didn’t see the reason to buy him but a cheap loan deal with only an option to buy means have competition and cover for this year and gives them a whole year to work on a deal for another keeper for a much cheaper price / freebie
