SSN saying that Sky in Italy are reporting that the vermin have had a £52m bid for Morata rejected by Real Madrid, who want £78m for him.
B-b-but; I thought Rashford (aka Goldenchild Mk II or the new Macheda/JizzyJazz/Martial) was the one to lead them to a new era of glory? I'm confused.I said after the Griezmann deal fell through that teams will be lining up to rinse them because they know they will get desperate:
Funny thing is I wouldn't want either of those players!

Morata and Belotti are decent but not world beaters 80m is crazy but I guess this window is going to be just that CRAZY.
Not necessarily. This is why it's so important to buy players from a position of strength. It's when teams are desperate to rebuild like the rags that they get rinsed, and the red-faced one retired leaving them with a squad in need of a total rebuild after years of papering over the cracks. I'd argue that in the current market, the price we paid for Bernardo is very good, and I reckon part of that is because we don't desperately need him. Whereas with the fullbacks, releasing them all has basically told everyone that we're desperate for new ones, otherwise we're going into the season with Kolarov and Fernandinho as the first choices. Obviously if they're English, you get screwed regardless.Premier League clubs are going to get absolutely rinsed by the continental European clubs.
It's almost going to be pointless having the amount of cash we have because we will end up paying a premium regardless.
Normal media service will be resumed as soon as Griezmann, Belotti, Morata or whichever expensive signing they end up with picks up an injury.B-b-but; I thought Rashford (aka Goldenchild Mk II or the new Macheda/JizzyJazz/Martial) was the one to lead them to a new era of glory? I'm confused.
