It's still ridiculous though mate, I would not pay anything more than £20m for him.

I am just pointing out £31 is ridiculous for El Shaarawy.
If we end up spending that for him and find out later that we missed out on Isco because we would not match Madrid's £21m offer - which at the moments look like the reason we have missed out on him - we are going to look a joke and questions should be answered.
Yes. £31 million for a maddeningly inconsistent striker would be shocking.sam-caddick said:birchwoodgingerste said:sam-caddick said:It's still ridiculous though mate, I would not pay anything more than £20m for him.

£35m Andy Carroll.lindy64 said:El Shaarawy would be a great signing for us because he is a striker with great movement and in the formation we are looking at playing, that will be very useful.
We wont be paying 30 million though, thats lunacy.

The kid is 20 and scored a lot of goals for AC Milan

Yes and Luverpool was soundly and rightly mocked. Just as we should be if we plop down over £30 million for El Shaarawy.Marvin said:£35m Andy Carroll.lindy64 said:El Shaarawy would be a great signing for us because he is a striker with great movement and in the formation we are looking at playing, that will be very useful.

He's worth £20million. At most. He's had roughly six good months. I wouldn't go over £12 million if he was older. He has plenty of potential but its just that.johnmc said:He's 20. Are you surprised he is a little inconsistent? He notched 16 goals in serie A last year. More leagues than any of our strikers I think. At 20.
If he was an academy prospect coming through here and he did what he I'd for Milan for us no one on his board would sell him for £30m. He's a class act. Pace to burn. Can finish. Doesn't o down easy and is no where near the finished article.
People are going mad for Isco and rightly so. This kid is up alongside him if not better and actually a player we need more than Isco.

Don't care. I'm disinclined to overpay for projects. The entire point of an academy is to bypass that.johnmc said:taconinja said:He's worth £20million. At most. He's had roughly six good months.

If we had a 20 year old scoring double figures and a full international, you would not take £20m for him.
Rooney didnt score more than Al Shaaraway in a season until he was 23.
