The only way the donut thief will remain at the Swamp is if Woody gives him a contract similar to the Merc's , £500k a week or he will be off to Real (and he would play for them for half the money) , the only way the Rags will attract top class players now is by offering contracts on the level of the Chinese , 500-600k a week will now be a starting point after they set the precedent with the Merc . Their turnover might be a couple of billion , but giving players £100m/ 4 year contracts will have the Glazers running scared. Toys R us , Woolworths were household names and they went bust , it would be f*cking heaven if the Rags went the same way.

I agree but since that signing fees have gone even more insane.£140 mill is probably the going rate for him at a time when the starting price for top players is 150 mill upwards.

It’s just crazy.

No one will pay that figure for Pogba. The Juve fans were happy to get rid of him. He is "the Emperor's new clothes" of sport. The experts keep telling us he is world-class. If he is then so is Jonjo Shelvey. Lingard is a better player ffs.

When you say the starting price is £150 mil upwards how many have gone for that ?

What on earth are you on about?

 

[Barcon]

140 mil? You're having a laugh. The clown has regressed since he left Juve for 50 mil over and above his value.
When we had a thread on here and we were linked with him, most people that wanted him changed their mind when his price went above 25 mil.
