Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

[freshie]

Yeah, the price is steep, but for some perspective:

Cucurella 60m
Havertz 90m and 65m
Rice 105m
Antony 86m
Mudryk 88m
Nunez 85m
Enzo 107m
Lukaku (to Chelsea) 97m
Brighton asking for 100m for Caicedo

West Ham paid 51m for him last summer, can’t say that 70m for him is completely unreasonable

Looked very good once he had settled in at West Ham. Not many players look good playing under Moyes. Extremely underrated defensively and much more of a goalscorer than Gundo was at Dortmund. Works his socks off (sinimar to Bernardo in that aspect) and very dangerous in front of the goal. Pep would elevate this kid to new heights. I’m a fan

They didn’t. It was £38m

Not world beating but decent enough. Doubt we'd pay £85M for him though but who knows?

Interesting! Thanks mate.

Do you think there’s potential there that pep can do what he does best?

Probably be another "issued warning" by some writer in the MUEN about him later then in the city section

For a 25 year old World Class Brazilian international ?

He’s not World Class, far from it, seen him have some very ineffective games, how many times was he a substitute or substituted?

A YouTube reel gets you in the Brazil team nowadays to be fair

What’s the obsession with how much we pay? Who gives a shit

Twitter user and FIFA player that's why.

You have a rather skewed view of what world class looks like.

£85m is too expensive.

Optics imo as they have now named a price? Price could include add ons or we sell Phillips or Palmer to them ?

How are the hammers at left centre back. Laporte is superb, very strong classy player decent price. .A lot of us are surprised at the lack of links for him unless there's something we don't know.

he is 25 with 88 pace , 74 shooting, passing 74, dribbling 84 , 65 physical and defending 46 and overall rating 81. plus point is he can play on both sides LW and RW.

Are you seriously using ratings from a computer game to assess a player’s ability? Get the fuck out of here hahahaha
