Declan Rice

Considering Kovacic and Kdbs fitness along with Kalvin level… there are some real red flags, hence depth needed.

We’re also getting McAtee back to the first team, and Oscar Bobb. No one can plan a season based on who will be injured. Foden already plays in KDB’s role.

For 100M you can buy Barella and Brozovic.

lol amazing how everyone knows who is available and their exact cost

How is Rice £105mill in the same window that valverde is £77mill

We are mega wealthy and have just banked 300m for this seasons prize money. We should match anything they do if Pep really wants him

I know what you mean, but re that £300m figure, we didn’t bank £300m more than Arsenal did we?

I keep seeing that amount quoted across the forum as if no one else banked any money from last season.

Ok, if you're correct, then logically we should stump up the extra 10m, to match Arsenal.


If not....

bellingham went to madrid for cheaper than this lol

 

[eyalluvitt]

It's all to do with the structure of the bid. We payed 100 for Grealish and were going to pay the massive fee for Bellingham if he didn't join Madrid. So i think we will go above a 100 million

If Arsenal pay over 100m it’s refreshing and good for a competitive PL. If we do it’s an oil funded hate crime

There’s a point greed kicks in though and City won’t entertain that. West Ham need to tread very carefully now.

Cause both might walk away and try to get him cheaper next year with (I think) 1 year left

 

[dadnlad]

but how much are his agent fee, dads fees, dinner money, bus fare and pocket money

If we did ask for a few days maybe it’s to sort Kelvin’s future. Won’t be surprised if we go again.
