We will agree to disagree obviously!
Let's just hope that Pep/Txiki have got it right. They've only got 18 months or so to live with their decision.

If you read the old Mahrez and Rodri threads you got a lot of comments about their fees too. Nobody is complaining now.They have done pretty well so far with their purchases so despite your concerns or those of the other naysayers, I suspect they're feeling fine about the signing.
I have have more confidence in the management than the opinions of certain posters on BM.

It's easy to spend other people's money. I think we've overpaid for everyone we've signed since Txiki arrived. Some massively.Just as a matter of interest, do you really think our management team have overpaid for Grealish to the tune of £75m /£70m as you quoted in an earlier post ?
Hopefully you will not be in the running for the DOF in the near future.
So we've overpaid for everyone since Txixi arrived in your opinion . Do you understand the principle of market forces ?It's easy to spend other people's money. I think we've overpaid for everyone we've signed since Txiki arrived. Some massively.
Football is mad business.
The numbers say he is successful, only the numbers were also decried by those who criticise him as being impossible to believe. We sold Torres because he wanted to return to Spain which is fair enough.This is funny, these comments "give him a year, you said the same about mahrez" etc etc were the same on the Torres thread for an entire year. Then we sold him for profit and the same people said "he never really performed for us, he wasn't good enough".
I get the desire to support the players when they're at the club, but clearly the criticism has legs and you can't just waive it away with lazy comparisons to mahrez that miss the mark, both by the numbers and stylistically.
