Walker's a good player, but £50 million though? The world's gone fuckin mad.

He's been doing it for years and still gets a lot of bites.
At least we can laugh

Hard to wrap your head around the amount of money being mentioned for a fullback, but I'm sure the same was said when Trevor Francis went for a cool million+ back in the 70's.
Hopefully it's fully justified over the next few years.

Whilst Maffeo looks a talented player, I'm not sure he's the long term option. He was great at Old Trafford, but massively struggled against Celtic and Steau.

All this stems from the poor planning of few years ago. Now we're desperate for full backs and every chairman knows it. 50 mill for a 27 year old who was back up at spurs says it all really. Hope he turns out to be a good signing.

I'm sure it's a lesson learned and they won't let it happen again

That's the problem with this forum, people are generally fucking clueless on what they post.
I'm not a huge Walker fan, but he's a considerable upgrade on what we had last season so that'll do for me. There's hardly an abundance of top class full backs out there who are available, and particularly not homegrown ones.
Not really bothered about the fee either tbh. It's not rocket science that transfer fees are going up exponentially in line with the TV deals. You only need look at the fees paid for Pickford, Keane, Lukaku, Sigurdsson etc. to see that the market rate has changed considerably this summer.

Walker wasn't first XI though. Trippier is far superior.
Think that one flew over a few heads, judging by the replies.
