Yep.....the club will pay for a player what THE CLUB think he's worth,not us lot on here.
It's the fans or supporters that pay in the end, personally I'm not bothered because there is nothing I can do but go to the club shop and buy merchandise by any brand that sponsors players, have a look at the cost of football in this country.
It's the fans who end up paying more and more until it's no longer affordable.
 
I hope so, yes.
this.

there were a few times last season where Rodri was running on fumes as he had played too much, added to Ferns physical decline which meant he wasn't really helping in midfield resulted in Rodders doing too much

if Phillips can take 10-15 starting games off him and also offer a workable option as a sub it will a great signing
Also, if he runs double pivot he can also take games off some of the other players reducing their workload
 
That’s not true though is it. You pay what he’s worth to the selling club. Was Grealish worth £100m to us? No. But he was worth £100m to Villa, hence the clause set that high - so we paid it.

Our own club thinks he is worth 100m to pay the release clause. transfer wise our club doesn't give a shit what fans thinks.
 
A theoretical strongest eleven doesn`t exist as well you know.Pep will pick the strongest eleven for each individual game.
100% agree.

It's always horses for courses, based on what the manager feels is needed to beat the opposition. There is always an element risk involved in team selection because you can't always predict how an opposition team will line up against us, or who they have fit. Even the state of the playing surface factors into the equation.

If Rodri had been injured last year we would have won nothing and the scousers the treble.
