Who’s gone in the summer?

The Sterling thing is an odd one.

Who’s buying him on the sort of wages he’ll want? He will only want to go to a top tier club who will be favourites for the champions league. That doesn’t leave a lot of options.

What about Spurs?
He'd get to go back to London and play with Kane, those two and Son would make a good forward line.

Why? Hazard went for €150m at 29 with 1 year left, Ronaldo went for €100m at 33, Bonucci was €40m at 30 in 2017. Chris Wood just went for €30m FFS.

Mahrez is one of the best players in the world, he's not going to move for pittance.

PSG are losing Di Maria and Mbappe and will look to sell Icardi and Draxler. They need prestige as well as quality and they'll have the cash.

How many times were we told they would never sell us Mbappe. Same thinking applies here - they wont want to give us £80m.

I'd take £40m given his age and we have so many attacking players with more coming through. All money in helps to pay for our next big signing. Selling players to PSG is not a bad move in my book. I dont see them as a threat in the same way that other Prem teams or Real / B Munich are.

None of those transfers are remotely comparable. Hazard was 28 (and if you’re going to claim he was 29 then we can say Mahrez is 32) and Madrid had been chasing him for years. Ronaldo was the best striker in the world at the time and had massive commercial benefits. Bonucci was under contract and was one of the worlds best defenders and Wood had a buyout claim and was under long term contract too.

How much did we sell Sané for again?

If I was Eddie Howe, I'd be all over trying to sign Zinny. Young, Serial winner, International with a great attitude. He could be the cornerstone to build on, not that I want him to go mind.

£100m min price for moneybags Newcastle. Can’t buy success, can’t buy class. Plastic rotten club. ;)

Easy this! I must belong to a history club now. Grrrrreat.
