Don't disagree, I'm just stating that I think it's a useless signing because I don't rate him highly
It's because you've never seen him play. But I don't blame you, if a team like Atletico Madrid was heavily linked to Vardy, their fans would probably react similarly.

I think money does matter as do transfer fees , but I don't think this should preclude us from buying older players .
Had Demichaelis left after two seasons I would argue that he had been the best value centre back we have bought since the takeover in spite of having no transfer value.

Value is about Transfer fees paid plus wages and signing on fees minus transfer fee received against performance and time spent at the club.
Older players often settle and perform more quickly.
Fair point. I tend not to get hung up too much about transfer fees and resale values, as things like this can easily become distractions from enjoying the game of footy for what it is. A bit like the way commentators find it hard to praise a player's ability during a game without mentioning his cost.

The financial directors at City are paid a small fortune to balance the books and deal with the associated headaches. I'm no different from the majority of fans, and certainly have a good moan when we've overpaid for a player, but ultimately I'm still quite glad that we got to see his ability (or lack of).

I've probably watched him like 3 times this season and he's not impressed me tbh, let's see what he does in the euros
 
maybe rumours are true....

Mourino: "He will go this year. I think Nolito will leave Celta this year. His contract has a buy-out clause of €18m."

Mourinho: "There are no numbers. Whoever pays that can take him, whether we like it or not. There is not even any negotiation."

Had to do a double-take on that name lol thought PEG said that. But if he is a squad player, 14.2m pounds is pretty good business for a goal-scoring winger in his prime.

If mourinhos said that it sounds like he's confident of getting him?
 
I have a feeling this is happening. It's like the Negredo one IMO.

If I was Pep I'd send Sterling to Spain on loan to try to rejuvenate him. Poor lad is shot. We can't afford to carry people.

on Sterling....Was really hoping that chance he had in the first half, would have found the back on the net, another big miss....needs his confidence back!;)
