It's spelled Benfica mate (and with a capital letter)
No disrespect meant. I do say Benfica wrong and my spelling represented that (so thanks for pointing it out). The lack of capitalization is a combo of laziness and using my phone. Dortmund was probably autocorrected due to it being a city.
 
I get that, I'm just saying you're destroying the record for a goalie who was not known as a super prospect, doesn't have loads of top-level experience for a 23 year old and hasn't been capped by a country with a weakness at his position. Let's look at keeper signings from the last few years:

Ter-Stegen to Barcelona: Germany international, big-name prospect, 127 apps for Gladbach, 22 years old and he went for 12 million euro in 2014.
Oblak to Atletico: Slovenia international, big-name prospect but less experience than Ederson (although both played for Benfica), 21 years old and went for 16 million in 2014.
Lloris to Spurs: France #1, well-known world-class keeper, 25 years old when signing, 10 million euro in 2012.

The money being touted for Ederson isn't in the same realm as similar and more accomplished keepers, even if the market has changed. Don't get me wrong, I think he'll be very good, but my main problem is Txiki's transfers almost always seem like an overpay and then we have a hard time shifting players even for a hugely reduced price.

You're- who do you support weirdo?
 
Off topic this,but think you posted a while back that you left your crutches in Mary Ds?
How in gods name does anybody forget a pair of crutches?
Apologies if not you.
It wasn`t so much of forgetting them ... I was pissed up and lost `em,along with my match day tickets (Barnsley home in cup 5.30 pm KO) £50 and my glasses.We phoned Mary D`s the next day and for another 2 weeks and nothing.Seven months later whilst having only a couple of beers back in there, just casually asked had anything been found and I ended up with 2 fucking pairs of crutches as they found them.I looked like a fucking octopus that afternoon walking around with `em.
I kid you not.
