It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

So tolmie mentioned £300m net spend in the summer so if Bernardo is leaving and plus others it must be going to be a £400m gross spend ish?

Bellingham @ £130m
Maddison @ £40-50m
Left back @ £50m ish?
Leao?
70m Net from last season + Torres money, Berny money
Cancelo £62m, I think Laporte will go & some younger kids,
Porro money, at least £250m before we spend what we earn this season?

I recon with the way Chelsea have spent & likely Arsenal will go big in the Summer & UTD won't sit back Pep will be given at least 300 big ones & still be in profit

English Summer
Bellingham £120m
Maddison 50m
Chilwell £60m
 
Sweet mother of Jesus. And would you have spouted such rubbish before we were linked to Maddison? No, you wouldn't have done. There's not a single poster on this forum that would have advocated signing James fucking Maddison before today. That you've just said he's better than all those aforementioned players, especially kev, is an insult. He isn't fit to lace any of their laces, even in their worst form.

It would be Phillips all over again. Isn't good enough for us, simple as that.
people here accept mediocrity very easily. we need to buy 2 world class CM to replace Gundo and bernardo and KDB then we can think about bit part players like maddison.
 
I don't mind the phrase in itself but it's applied horrendously. Every decent teenager or club's greatest player is deemed "generational".

Bellingham is not generational. Enzo Fernandez is not generational.
Mbappé and Haaland might be, but not quite yet.

I'd say there have probably been less than 10 generational players in the history of the sport.
Di Stefano, Puskás, Pelé, Cruyff, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi - possibly Beckenbauer, possibly Yashin.
Platini, Zidane, Maldini, Buffon, Brazilian Ronaldo...
 
well who said bellingam isn't overrated? surprise he is overrated. people here think he is somehow going to be a upgrade on gundo and bernardo when he has so many holes in his game and will require lots of learning; no way is he worth more than enzo who is already a complete player. but atleast bellingham is young and has potential and seems to have the correct mentality.
Lol enzo has played about 3 good games in he’s whole career so far.

Bernardo hadn’t produced in the league for about 18 months ..

ilkay legs have gone and Kev just spams crosses into the box …

Maddison has been the best attacking goal scoring midfielder in the league for last 2 seasons ..

Facts only
 
Maddison is better than the current Bernardo , gundogan and dare I dare i say it current form KDB

Is he ‘eck.

Totally a different ball game doing it at a club like Leicester compared to a club like City where the standards are so high and you’re playing through a parked bus every week.

Just look at Grealish and how long it has taken him to adapt. Some people thought he was a world beater when he was at Villa and coming on for England.

Good player is Maddison but completely unproven at our level. Would be a good edition to the squad if we can get him for a reduced fee due to him being in the last year of his deal.

And now Grealish is pretty much first name on team sheet and miles better then all our other wingers / cams apart from mahrez

Ronaldo certainly had the talent to be there. Injury fucked his career but I'll accept him.
Zidane and Platini were 2 I thought of but I decided they are just the level below these others.
Buffon? no way. Not even a top 3 GK of all time.
Maldini? not even the best defender at his own club so definitely not.
