Kyle Walker

[BlueDeadHead]

Here come the Fee police.

I'll never, ever understand the fan obsession with transfer fees.

We have x amount of money. If we spend 55 on Walker we have x-55 in our tranfer kitty. If we spend 40 on Walker we have x-40 in our transfer kitty. Make sense now?

 

[BillyShears]

Fees are irrlevant this summer. Just look across the board at the fees being paid. 40 million is the new 20 million etc.

I'd pay £60m if I had to. Walker is the best in England comfortably and as people are very quick to point out, we don't have a single right back, ergo we don't have a single piece of leverage with the deal.

Would we rather Walker didn't sign but the moral high ground of '£50m is too much' being upheld make anyone feel better because it sure as hell wouldn't me?

The money is high but look at the market! Swansea rejected £40m for Sigurdsson, Everton paid £30m for a Championship keeper and Chelsea are about to pay £40m for a player who will miss preseason and won't be available until September as he had the fluid removed from his knees.

Get him in, get him integrated and fix one of two glaring problems with our squad with a great player.

Exactly.

You want banning for talking sense!

I shall be listening to your podcast tonight. Some interesting stories brewing: Full back deals close. Mbappe and maybe even Bonucci. Sounds like he could be moving and we had an interest in him in the past...

FC Porto are confident Tottenham will pay the £22m asking price for Ricardo Pereira if they sell Kyle Walker to City. [Evening Standard]

Should buy him just to annoy Levy

 

[Kamran Shirinzade]

It's all irrelevant as you don't know how much is in the transfer kitty.

How can that possibly bother anyone when absolutely nobody knows what figure x is?

 

[RandomJ]

At this point I don't care how much he costs we just need full backs signed and in training.

Spurs will be celebrating more profit. But it's the winners who make money, and of course the prize is the title. We sign their full back, we are long way towards sorting out what has been a big weakness in our team for two seasons.

Not really because you're arguing against the people who know what our budget is and have been working on how to distribute it for some time.

 

[City_Sean]

This is excellent news. Comfortably the best RB in the country. £50m a snip when you consider Keane and Sigurdsson prices.

For the first time in a long time we have unanimity on Bluemoon.

Where's that central defenders topic?

 

[Yates]

3rd in the French league is like 3rd in Scotland

3rd in Scotland lost to 4th in the Luxembourg league in the Europa
League first qualifying round.

 

[BlueDeadHead]

Wow. Ok. I will simplify it more. Buying Walker for 55 as opposed to 40 lessens our ability to sign other players. Make sense now?

 

[Taylor]

Have sky or the BBC ran this yet?

 

[BlueisCity]

Pereira for £22m is a much better deal than £55m for Walker.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Very very nearly there. Hopefully everything will be a lot clearer tomorrow.

Was you on here the other day, as Rosler1985 ? ;-)

What the fuck is wrong with you people. It is simple math.
