It's quiet... summer 2018.

Add Bailey and a defender and we sorted.

Think it would be Mahrez instead of Bailey

After Pep's comment I think that would be all our business.....and we can close the transfer thread down for the rest of the summer!;)

110m they must be joking

Jorginho 50m, Mahrez 60m

Did you expect less???

Long suspected that Roberts and Zinchenko would be involved in these deals, which could make such a figure correct for the ultimate value of both transfers.

Neither are worth breaking our club record for so i hope that is a hugely inflated figure,be a shame to see zinchy leave not seeing him flourish in his proper position but i guess we are stocked there

As i said to someone else neither is worth a club record fee imo but it's not my money so not my problem

 

[waspish]

Be good to get it sorted pretty quick

Karen, tv money goes up every year, investment goes up every year and player transfer fees go up every year....Our club record fee wont stay at its current level for very long, which is why we paid the release clause for Laporte....the club understands a top class CB is going to cost 60-70mil very soon and the same for midfielders and forwards. If we can get these 2 signed for 110mil combined, thats a good deal. In two years time, that price will seem a bargain...

They are quality deals and fair prices imo.
Jorginho will be a quality edition that will pick up the pace of the prem slowly under dinho.
Mahrez is key for next season. The amount of games we will have, playing against 11 behind the ball where Mahrez will beat 2 players and open up gaps all over.
To finish they can be over the line before the world cup starts and in place to start the new season with a bang.

You would have to assume somebody in the squad next season won't be getting as much game time next season , similar to Yaya and Danilo this season.

I assume Aguero will play a lot less next season

I only suggest it because I thought he looked a little wistful when he was substituted against Brighton, but, as you say, we're currently stocked in that area; the lad also needs games and he must realise that himself.
