Well it’s only age if that’s the only bit you choose to read. We paid 42 for a player injured a lot of last year to come in and play back up. But 50m for a full back which is quite often the going rate isn’t. Weird. His age matters of course. We pay 50m and get 6 or 7 years out of him then it’s a bargain. here’s some rationale, the best club in England want him and have wanted him all summer, because we’ve scouted him and really rated him. 30m is fine for us to value him at, just don’t waste a summer chasing a club who aren’t budging. Move on weeks ago.
yeah I kind of didn't read it all lol

As I said before though - value = risk and I guess we were happy taking a punt for £30m but not for £50m which seems logical...
For all we know it could also be financial... needing the money for next year..?
 
So we don’t need one and Pep and txiki are idiots? One can’t have it both ways.
No we don't need a new signing at LB for the start of the season. Pep and Txiki don't seem to be overly desperate for one either.

Ideally, yes we'd have someone in by now. But in the scheme of things, when we signing someone for years not days I dont think it's that important.

Next year we will need a left back though? If 30 was our limit fine, offer it, get it rejected because it is too low then move on. It’s been a priority position for a few years now, we happily replaced Fernandinho straight away, as mentioned 42m for a back up whilst ignoring a problem position.

You wonder why they have been after him all summer then eh? There is some truly outstanding lack of logic on this thread.

I didn't say we don't need one. I said we don't need one for the start of the season.

We're well equipped to handle the first weeks with the squad we have.

Including having the best LB in the league in our starting lineup Sunday.
