I'm afraid you cannot separate the context. We are not paying £100m for a player out of desperation so he can plug obvious gaps, we're paying a premium fee for a top player to improve even further. The debate whether he's worth that money is irrelevant to it and only time will tell. This is the least of addressing a need/desperation for a player we've had in a transfer window, for a while.

Was Sterling or Stones worth £50m when we bought them? Did that smack of desperation, or did we pay a big fee to get top players who only got better? Did their fee really matter in the end?
I see you chose Stones & Sterling, not Mangala & Mendy. Well chosen.

Btw, what would you have said about Stones 14 months ago? That’s rhetorical!
 
If they don’t want to sell him why would they accept the bid? City may have to pay more than 100m.
 
Not sure how Villa can ‘accept’ a £100m bid if it is in fact a release clause. He’s free to do what he wants once triggered.
