Benjamin Mendy

So looks like we paid what they wanted.....yet again. Could have saved a lot of time and effort doing that from the start.

Time and effort for whom ? Why should we rush in with an offer that they wanted.At the end of the day we got our man and by all accounts he`s been injured so he would have missed at least the derby game.
Too many impatient fans.

Why don't people understand? that is not how negotiations like this work.

Mendy doesn't have a Release clause, mendy can demand whatever they want for him. If you go in and slap £55mil on the table, they just look at you like a fool because they know that is the minimum they will get and then they just ask for £60mil.

So paying exactly what they have been asking for (a world record for a defender) is a good negotiation then?

Pretty sure we've paid more than they initially wanted. I recall fees of £39-43m being touted as the asking price with City offering £30-35m.

That little weasel Alves has probably cost the club about £10-15m in the Walker/Mendy deals

Yes. Absolutely.

Fair fucks to Monaco for holding out. But not all clubs will do that. That is the power of negotiation.
