Baleba

Yeah and no.

I mean, if you have the player performing at a high level for 5 seasons, these days 60-80m inst that bad when you spread the cost.

that's good point but hasnt Baleba only been there 5 minutes
but khusanovonly moved for 100 grand not long back so leave to experts

Yeah, I actually have no opinion on Baleba, just the idea that we should never buy from Brighton.

I don't think he was cheap for them either to be fair.

These energetic midfielders of his mould are ten a penny in Ligue 1, and available for cheap seeing as their TV rights deal imploded. Thuram went Juventus for 20mil. Camara at Monaco has had 2 great seasons and is much better than Baleba on the ball.

I don’t think having 1 good season at Brighton is worth the extra £70mil premium.

Agree...don't get me wrong I think Baleba is a good player (not great yet) & would play a much needed role currently in our lethargic midfield.

However, lets be honest if were going to try & acquire his services its going to be £120m plus, since Caicedo only recently was sold by the Seagulls for £115m last year & rate Baleba with a higher ceiling.

There's no chance we're going to pay this & do a Chelsea so I would suggest Viana concentrate on getting the 'next Baleba' by scouring the French league as suggested by others who seem to have an array of these energetic box to box midfielders. I even fear Camara at Monaco may now be priced out of our expectations, since other top clubs are now circling.

They paid 30m for him and he has a 15% sell on clause. It’s going to take too much to get him out of Brighton.

If we are dropping 100+ on a player it’s Wirtz, if we can’t get him why would we change tactics and get a player like Baleba.
 
We get him pep won't play him after one training session Because his ball control isn't great he be another nunes
 
Absolutely on board with this link. One of the few marquee signings that may be available this summer. A physical monster. Shades of Camavinga/Bellingham/Pogba. I reckon he'd do a job as our number 8 next to Rodri. The potential is sky high for this lad, only just turned 21.
