Whenever City buy a player it's always quoted as initial fee + bonuses combined. Gotta be consistent, so if Monaco do come out and prove that it was €70m + €10m bonuses I'll happily quote €80m.

Basically it's £58.7million... Wow!

Reading the blog regarding Van Gaal's toxic relationship with senior players and his habit of destroying confidence I wonder whether this has happened with Rooney. Watching him the little I have this season he seems shot. Makes the runs and gets into positions but seems to have lost his his bottle completely. The chance against Swansea when Williams got back to him was an example, he didnt even get a shot off.

Rooney couldn't get one off on his own in a cubicle with a years subscription of granny weekly.

£52m up front. Fuck me sideways I thought the last 7 years had been bliss, but I never realised it could reach heights such as these with such comedic nirvana.

Monaco Insist that they've paid €70mil upfront... Don't use the DM as a factual yardstick!

Jeez, lighten up I was taking the piss by saying that they are a mid table club.

56 mill for a kid, untried and alien to the prem. he could turn out to a good signing but then again.
