Alvarez done deal - £82m to Atletico

[Tricky_Trev]

And watch us tell them to fuck off if they do

It’s a tough one though. Alvarez is definitely not going to play anywhere near as much this season as he did last, because (touch wood) KDB won’t be out for 5-6 months and Haaland for 2 months. That was the reason he played so much.

So after a season where he’s playing much less, his value only goes down. This summer is the optimal time to sell.

So imo, even if PSG undercut Atletico to around £65m-70m, instead of their £82m, I still think we have to consider it.

He needs to stop fucking about. If I were Txiki, I'd be telling him to accept whatever offer Atletico make, because if he comes back here now he'll be sitting on the bench every week.

He's made his bed.

correct

Hmmmmmm

Interesting! Made his bed mind you

Bye then. I'm more excited about talents like Bobb, Savio, McAtee, and O'Reilly, plus Grealish regaining his form and Nunes' 2nd season. They all fit our backup false 9 formation better than Alvarez, imo.

You sound quite mad. At least it gives more minutes for Bobb. Won’t get much Gametime with the addition of Savio and KDB not being injured for half the season.

"just under 5m" .... Uh, that sounds problematic.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

What's all this talk of 5m? all this time I thought it was all about the "minutes"

Footballers are a fickle bunch
If we turned round to Alvarez and said we’ll pay you £250k a week he’d stay
It’ll still happen i think

Great deal this. He's never going to be number 1 striker is an awful attacking mid. We will miss his ability to shoot but Foden and Kev have that in spades. hes a great sub but he's too good for that.

Think he'll be great under Simeone and good luck to him.

£5m? Offer him £1m per goal scored, he’ll have it by Christmas!

he wants more money than they are willing to pay, at the moment at least.
