The most interesting aspect of this whole saga is not the player or even the clubs. It's Adidas. Why when they represent the main 3 clubs, do they seemingly troll Real? Why do Juve allow Adidas to associate the rags badge with their player(albeit only for day). You can see the marketing and other sponsors getting over-zealous eg: public following of the player on Twitter and Insta/Virals etc.
At the end of the day we have to assess our players v theirs. If we field De Bruyne, have they got a better player in midfield? Not for me. Owt better than Silva on his day? Not for me. Owt better than Aguero? Not for me. Strength in depth with Sterling and Ferna and Nolito and Fernando and Zinkchenko is ridiculous.
Shaw and De Gea are better than Clichy and Hart imo. But that's it.
