Jude Bellingham

[lonestay]

His best mate at Dortmund, is rewriting records at City with Peps tutelage. Bellingham will want some of that, where else can he go and get that expertise ?

A Dickegg?

Fused together in one handy 1980's package.

Good player but at £130 million someone is getting robbed .

The thing is, £130m isn’t what it once was in football. As soon as Chelsea spunked £100m+ on Enzo, Bellingham’s price was always going to rise and demand similar.

It’ll be £130m total with achievable add-ons most likely.

Also, it’s one of those where we’d be getting a 19 year old midfielder with 10+ years ahead of him and nowhere near his prime yet. Under the best manager in the world for developing and improving players.

It’s a massive outlay but in perspective the club probably don’t think so.

Not really, unless you think we are also robbing teams by charging 15m a pop for players who have never appeared in the PL for us.
The only thing that matters is that we are financially reliable, and achieve sporting success. Both of those things are true.
In the wider context, I personally want that AND more reasonably priced tickets to attend. It is a futile desire, because the prospect of cheapening tickets when your ground is already full is not business sense. In the long-term, as income streams develop away from match-day revenue, charging a tenner to attend has to be the way forward!

Fucking dippers seem to be getting giddy about Bellingham again the dopey bastards!? Is this all down to the anfield wrap potato head?

That tweet about how Bellingham will wait a season at Dortmund, while they spend £100m+ on 2 midfielders in the summer? Bellingham's contract is until 2025 so it's not exactly going to be cheap next year either. So they are hoping on FSG supporting 3 years of £100m+ transfers with no real incoming money from transfers? It's a bold strategy.

True and if we go pay that amount in 5/6 years time sell him am dam certain we will get at least 95% of that fee back..

 

[bell_mcfc]

They spent 25m on him as a 17 year old, this transfer was always going to be 100+

 

[Theengelbert]

On the fence with this one. He looks decent but not sure about £100m+ decent. Like someone said on here tho it’s his age.. we could be paying to have a player at the top level here for the next 12 years. Got to trust the club though we don’t get it wrong often these days.

One of the funniest one-twos of all time.
