Most transfers are paid over the contract length, so you probably won't have paid the base fee in full either, so why not go the full hog and divide it by 4 The add ons will be performance based, so as long as they don't have anything stupid like you lot winning the league in there.....then if he's any good (and you think he's the dogs chopper) you'll be paying them. Not a complicated concept
Even Bacca is a risky investment for me. Real fox in the box type, but don't expect anything from him outside of the box - combined with the fact he's almost 29 - £20m is a lot.
Therefore - the £21m is spread over the course of the contract, not including the add ons. Thanks for proving me right.
I hope not, I want to see to what he can do with us He'll deffo be in our squad next season I reckon And he should get some chances, Europa, domestic cup starts + coming off the bench in the league. Looking forward to seeing him, he certainly plays better for the National team than Lille so hopefully, with more creative better players around him he'll give us a good showing
I quoted his league goals, you chose to add in goals scored in the German equivalent of the Auto Windscreens , which saw them beat sides 9-0 twice!
If nobody is stupid enough to but him we may have no choice unfortunately. Italians will try it on. In the end it may just get us a 10mil fee the following year as he will score over there
I gave you the stats over his past 70 odd games which included everything. You then replied and claimed I was wrong. I like your revisionism.
Ah so Lukaku can beat up **** in europa and be mega but Firmino is muck.... A classic blue v red conumdrum .
They are a provision - the £21m is guaranteed. But please feel free to include the add-ons if it helps your argument.
There's plenty of football up to January for origi. Let's see him before saying he's being fobbed off again
The add ons aren't performance based Tobes, they are because we couldn't sign him as things stood because buying players that are third party owned isn't allowed by the premier league/FA. So before we could agree a deal(18m with his club)we had to buy his rights from his Brazilian owners.
Only the '****' he was accused of beating up was Wolfsburg, Lille, Kiev and CL regulars Young Boys. As opposed to some part time German sausage mincers
Funny that considering when we were discussing Lukaku not so long ago you insisted on counting all games and goals rather than just the league. Why s that
