Because in 2 years he’ll be worth half that? Not saying they necessarily will but they’re reeling from not being able to get a 100m fee for Paqueta. For (let’s say for arguments sake) 65m we get a guaranteed high-performing PL player that pushes us up the league and they can spend half that on some highly rated 22 year old punt from abroad. Everyone’s a winner?

Bowen would be amazing for us and anything under 60-odd million would be good value as well for what he’d bring to the team. This is a make-or-break season for us; we really do need to challenge for a top 4 place or risk losing our key players to rivals, widening the gap. We need results quickly and Bowen is as close to guaranteed class as we can get in our current position. He’ll be under a lot more pressure to achieve this season, so if Howe thinks Bowen is the key to CL places then we should go for it.

I imagine it’d be the same for footballers under Saudi labor law. 1-5 years you’re entitled to half your monthly salary as an entitlement then 5+ it’d be the full gratuity.

If we need to sell players before the next PSR deadline, I’m blaming all of you dhgate misers.

Gasping for any scrap of transfer news now. Wonder if we’re waiting to sell first?

England - Netherlands semis screams nil-nil then pens .

Was cheering for Turkey but they look really tidy. Want Netherlands to win now for the easier game

I’ll shut up . Get in.

well done, Southgate. We’re out.

Yeah, okay. This isn’t great.

Agreed, it’s not pretty but there’s something to be said for keeping the ball and not looking wide open to the counter.

That Morgan and Morgan ad has triggered something primal in me that I didn’t know was there.

Tbf we haven’t looked too bad so far. Some encouraging signs.

They’re certainly better coached. Then again there aren’t many that aren’t.

Formation is crazy… I really do despise Southgate, like. Reaching Bruce levels for me.

Chiesa has had like 3 good games in the last 2 years. He’s never been the same since his injury, which is a shame.

Let’s not pretend Ashworth wasn’t an “elite” operator just because he left us. On paper, I prefer Mitchell’s body of work but it’s difficult as outsiders to really know who’s better. Im just glad we’ve replaced him with someone who’s at least as highly regarded.

Don’t understand the hate for local journos (okay maybe Edwards I kind of get).

Great video. He sounds perfect for us.

Oh wow. Happy with this.

Based on how badly they’ve been run for the last few years, I’m surprised it’s only a quarter . Predictably, he’s coming across as a massive dick but I’m hesitant to throw shade until we see what the results will be. Really sucks for the staff there but something had to change as they’re clearly operationally underperforming.

Probably the biggest news outlet in KSA.

Shame Scalvini did his acl. Would’ve been a great Schar understudy.

Didn’t Leicester sell Dewsburry-Hall to Chelsea?

They missed their chance.
