Will we get this done before PSG blow us out of the water with a 145m bid

Still think this is a wind up.....pretty long one though.

Transfer fees can't be compared?

Clubs in Europe ask TOTALLY different monies from PL clubs than they do clubs from other leagues. Hence Milan can buy Bonucci for 35 million but Chelsea were quoted 60 million. Your comparison with Bonucci is therefore absolute nonsense.

What a drama queen.

So you're ok with paying thirty million pounds for an average 30 year old 4th choice centre half? Makes me shudder to think of all the money we've wasted on mediocre players over the years.

You know how long ago that was dont you? For me he is better than Smalling and jones Evens is a better all round footballer with a brain unlike the other 2 oh players learn by there mistakes and improve.

We,ve wasted how much of it was yours

£30m when just £8m more would have got you Bonucci and £18m more would have got you Naby Keita. You know it's bad when you hear the rag media urging us to sign him. This could be a candidate for our worst signing of the Mansour era.

Apart from bravo you mean.

Okay, Bonucci perhaps as he wanted to stay within Italy for personal reasons. But don't forget that he was sold to a rival club. Keita, on the other hand, was sold to an English club. Rudiger went for £30m plus £3m in add-ons. Bakayoko went for £40m. It looks aweful business however you look at this.

I do wonder about our scouts.

Many teams find absolute gems for peanuts whilst we continually pay over the odds and so can't improve all the positions we need.
