Is this Dutch lad any good?
I mean in reality not the how the media will make him out to be a world beater when he takes a throw in

Sky said United got an £80m player for under £40m. Must be true ?

They signed Phil Jones,
We signed Kun Aguero.

If Slab head is an 80 million point player they are bang on the money

Source is in Spanish but this is an amazing quote from their new signing:

"As you know it was closed with Real Madrid and the clubs also had an agreement, but for some reason it did not go through. Players who were going to leave stayed and Madrid dropped out. You're annoyed at first and wonder if such a possibility will arise again."

Van de Beek: "Estaba cerrado con el Madrid, pero por alguna razón no se cumplió"

And with Slabhead, the rags got a £40 million player for £80 million.



So there’s a kind of symmetry about it.

I don't know if it's cultural but I've been told Dutch and Belgian players don't tend to give much of a shit as far as subtlety is concerned.

What about when they signed Lukaku who was probably worth about £40 million but they paid £90 million?

I see Alexis Sanchez has been slagging off his former employers saying it was a mistake to go to United and wanted to terminate his contract after one training session. That’s what happens when you pick the money Alexis, he could have been a decent addition for us.

I think we dodged a bullet in all honesty.
