Leroy Sané

[ono]

Ah, but Pep IS convinced. It's difficult but I'd probably take his word over yours.

If Pep is convinced that Sane is a good deal at £60m, he's had a relapse and is on the same gear he was on when he swapped Eto'o plus £40m for Ibra.

£60m? the fuck...

 

[Palindromes]

£60m? the fuck...

I thought it was 30m, where is this 60m coming from?

We always pay double!

Euros, not pounds.

The press have probably converted € to £ at a rate of 1:1 - but to be honnest he's probably worth £50m if £15m is in add ons.

Of course i have. I've stated on here numerous times that his wingers need to have a certain set of qualities.

• They need to reliably be able to hit a 50/60 yard crossfield diagonal ball with regularity to create an isolation on one flank after overloading the other one.
• They need to be a threat from long range with the ability to score from outside the box.
• They need the ability to hit flat crosses from a variety of angles.
• They need the dribbling ability to cut inside against an opponent who may have 9 or 10 players camped in their own half.
• They need the close control, touch and footballing brain to quickly move the ball on under pressure.
• They need to be a goal-scoring threat.
• They need to work hard.

That's purely from watching Bayern this season. That's why i'm not convinced Sane at £60m is the answer.

You've just described a fully developed and perfect winger. Assuming they would be available and willing to come, who would you suggest as better options to fit our new, younger squad?

That might sound arsey but I'm genuinely asking.

Euros, not pounds.

Was hoping for Rupees

 

[BlueDeadHead]

60 millions is ridiculous, good player but still raw, better to spend that kind of money for Griezmann

45 in pounds.

60 mill in sane!
