It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

[bondsman]

I’d be disappointed to lose Laporte. Class CB and levels above Ake.

 

[uwe rosler 28]

Laporte is worth double what we paid for him.

 

[Bobby the blue]

50 million may be enough for his right leg. Although not his best since his injury it would be madness to sell Laporte. Hope he stays, however if he does want out then he should be going for over 80 million.

 

[doobyedoobye]

50 million is from the buyers side or Laporte's camp. Makes total sense at this stage

 

[Coatigan]

So is Fernandinho having a contract faceoff with Messi? Who can leave it later and sign the extension closer to the end date.

 

[colesy]

How much would Laporte be worth, if it was us trying to purchase him now? Certainly a lot more than the 50m being spouted.

I hope by “in the region of” they mean higher than.

No mate, we literally give players away. We are shit at selling

 

[Phoenix900000]

I always find it funny that any of our players that are linked to being sold (in the media) are never higher from what we paid.

Any other team "oh 100m easy"
Us "Less than his buyout clause and he has loads of winners medals+titles and has improved as a player"

That's media logic for you

 

[Great Kompany]

I know Txiki has his days but boy O boy we suck at selling players.Be it Harrison Tosin Angelino or anyone else

The red scums made 100 millions just from the sale of Jordon Ibe Brewster Skrtel and one another.

Not to forget they sold a player to hull for 8 million and bought Robertson for 10.

Thats two million for a 90 million leftback now.

 

[waspish]

Laporte in a no Covid era be worth in the bracket of 70/80m with Covid plus the players might of asked for a move 50m is ball park!
