Maguire, we were in the mix right to the wire, glad we dodged the bullet but it left us no time of options to sign an alternative.
Mendy, Mahrez & KDB long negotiations but still paid the asking price but on the latter a bargain.
I am not criticizing Txiki just saying we usually pay what the selling club wanted in the first place.
Jesus & Torres apart, I would totally agree.I would rather comment on the players we normally target. Most of the players are those who are the next big things in football and hence the prices quoted are high.
We hardly target unpolished gems with zero competition where the deal would be very straight forward. Like the LB liverpool signed. Never heard the name before. But 11m would be a great price if he turns out half as good as Robertson.

So the price is 70m Euros all of a sudden? From 90 million pounds
Speaks English. But yes, 90M is not realistic.Don't want this guy at all, £90M is way too much for a player who needs to adapt to a new country and a new language and a new manager with unique requirements, and will be over 30 by the time he understands what is being asked of him.
I don't care how good he is at doing what is asked of him at his current club, I'd rather keep Stones.
I do not want a fading player on a record fee and record wages but Zinchenko would be a beast in ItalyAs I predicted, #3675, we can expect more of this in the coming days. I still reckon we’ll get him for about 45-50 + Zinchenko.
