No, just when things got ridiculous. Or was that Sterling? Or Scott Parker to Chelsea. Fck knows, but this just seems even moreso.
Sturridge was worth £25/£30 mil tops when Suarez was feeding him goals, now you should be happy with £20/£25 mil and get someone as good or better while making a healthy profit.
He has not the same explosive game any more. If he is just getting back to fitness ok but he could be another falcao and as such... 50mil... **** yes.
Learn the lessons from Owen... Kewell...Torres...Sissoko...and countless others. Sometimes players get broken and hit a point that they're always injured or just not as good. Sell him.
Totally agree. The jury is very much still out so if someone is going to pay the full fee and then more you take it... this is not squarez. theres no bigger fee coming, he may not ever play more than 50% of games. we don't know.
fees bear no relation to talent any more they really just reflect difficult in release or demand. FOr me there are a 100 mahrez's out there that are never found by clubs and they never develop. LFC do not need Aubameyang. thats real madrdi 70-80mil territory... we need klopp to develop the NEXT lewandoski or Aub.... thats bascially where its at. If we get mad money for a broken player coming back form 2 years out... take it.. all day..
Ask yourselves this, if he had been at another team when he had his best season what is the most you would have wanted/expected your team to pay for him?
