Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

[1961_vintage]

£80m for a 27 year old seems steep.

Does feel like a bit of a gamble I agree.

Can't say I've seen a lot of him as I don't watch that much football these days.
But from what I've heard he sounds like a very good player.
But 85 million ?

 

[Cobwebcat]

Yeah, I can see that. Name someone else who is a KDB? Players are different surely?

Odegaard is closest IMHO

 

[Gingers Dad]

Thought he was excellent in the game against us recently.

IF...

Were still after him our due diligence must be off the scale to make sure we aren't being fucked over and giving the media another boot to kick us with.

We could sign a saint or a pope and the bastards would still have a dig at us.

They'd claim Barry Bennell was supplying his Holiness if we did.

As a positive the pope would be great in derby games.

£80m for a 27 year old seems steep.

We get £50 million back on Phillips, net £40 mill outlay?

Another two assist for 2 goals against the Rags now. Last 5 West Ham’s goals, 5 assists. Such a shame City didn’t buy him because of the betting allegations against him.
