No it doesn't, the limit of what we think he's worth will be set during the scouting meeting. They'll set targets and limits before presenting to the board for funds. They wont go over, just move onto a new target. If we get one for less fine, but they move on if they reach their limit.The reason people are "obsessed" with transfer fees is that overspending on 1 player this window DOES, in fact, mean you won't have the money for a different player in a different window - the fees SHOULD matter to you as a fan from a practical point of view.
If there is any truth to the rumour (Tolmie) that we are all-in for Bellingham next summer then there is absolutely no value in spending significant money on Phillips. What even happens to Phillips if Bellingham rocks up here in 12 months time?The reason people are "obsessed" with transfer fees is that overspending on 1 player this window DOES, in fact, mean you won't have the money for a different player in a different window - the fees SHOULD matter to you as a fan from a practical point of view.
I disagree. I think our recruitment has been poor as it goes. We didn’t get a centre back the year kompany left and didn’t bring in a forward last year. It was obvious we were balls deep for kane but for whatever reason didn’t work out. We looked very light at times this season.An opinion, sure. But the tone seems quite angry. But it might just be lost in translation. I think our recruitment has been excellent the last few years but people on here seem overly critical.
Do you seriously believe that our Club are incompetent when it comes to transfers and the fees and what they will have left over in a "pot".The reason people are "obsessed" with transfer fees is that overspending on 1 player this window DOES, in fact, mean you won't have the money for a different player in a different window - the fees SHOULD matter to you as a fan from a practical point of view.
Nothing. Jude isn't a 6 or DM. He'll prob slot into LCM over Gundo leaving. (and maybe Silva next year)If there is any truth to the rumour (Tolmie) that we are all-in for Bellingham next summer then there is absolutely no value in spending significant money on Phillips. What even happens to Phillips if Bellingham rocks up here in 12 months time?
Cooper is Leeds captain then ayling then "the Cookstown cafu" dallas think Philips is 4th.English international, leeds cap, apparently a very smart and sensible guy, good image, perfect profile in terms of playstyle, hg, Bielsa taught, a different player to Rodri.
I think he’s worth whatever the club deems ok.
1. Bellingham isn’t a specialist DM.If there is any truth to the rumour (Tolmie) that we are all-in for Bellingham next summer then there is absolutely no value in spending significant money on Phillips. What even happens to Phillips if Bellingham rocks up here in 12 months time?
No, but it's too much. They could be interested, but it's simply too much.I trust Pep and Txiki way above your thinking ... thankfully.
This is a circular argument.Do you seriously believe that our Club are incompetent when it comes to transfers and the fees and what they will have left over in a "pot".
It doesn`t concern me one iota and I`ll leave that to the people who run our wonderful successful club.Perhaps you cant get your around the fact that we will make money from outgoing transfers and the possible amount of £175M from our winnings from PL and TV, plus sponsorship.
You worry too much.
Because we could find better for cheaper, paying 60m£ is good, but for players Saka or even Maddison, but not for Kalvin Phillips.Too many people are obsessed with transfer fees.
