Just because he's a kid doesn't mean he'd not be offered that kind of money by Prem teams. If you're signing a player for £10 million+ then it's expected he'd be an important signing for the club and that's the going rate, regardless of the fact he's 19. Sunderland would have definitely dished out something around that to Wickham when they signed him for a similar fee.

Leipzig are newly promoted, and although they're clearly not your standard newly promoted side, I doubt Burke expected them to be keeping pace with Bayern at the top. He joined an ambitious (although minging) club who are focused around buying and developing young players. It's just unfortunate he found himself out of the team because they've been putting in title form from week 1

Phillips is an OK player but he wasn't a hyped up youngster going for £10 million+ as a teenager. 30k a week is the absolute norm these days, and Leipzig are one of the few European clubs who could have afforded to match PL offers.

merlin is just one of these people who thinks that they have control of the universe through extraordinary reverse-jinxing powers, and that he needs to expect the worst at all costs to ensure it doesn't happen

As a £10 million+ PL signing? Not unlikely.

We're 1/25 with the bookies to be promoted 1/50 with Ladbrokes ffs

:lol:

Wales would be an obvious option for him. Wouldn't take much to oust Hennessey, despite him being part of Wales' current generation of players that have came through together he's proper wank.

I honestly thought he did quite well btw, wasn't slagging him off.

I was a bit doubtful of this signing admittedly, but practically its worked out exactly how it was hoped. He even showed a turn of pace today. Either that or the Rotherham defenders were especially slow.

Crease how he's a better signing than McCormack

Aye cos we did shite when Mitro played like. Eejit.

Brought lols to the game. Enjoyed indulging in some ameobi.

Villa

We just need a little bit something else to help us open games up. Once we get that first goal we're usually sorted.

Football is nothing as a sport without spite and bitterness. He left out the back door to go into fucking Pardew's arms. Generally I'm more miffed that this is the only option we have to bring in despite now having a manager with Rafa's connections. However, if we are really keen to bring him back, the player fancies it to some extent and Rafa wants him why are we pissing around trying to do a loan deal? We're £30 million in surplus and they're trying to raise funds for Allardyce's rebuilding job. We know he'd tear it up this season and do a job next year too. Tight bastards.

His Ma is Greek Cypriot you massive racist.

Transfermarkt seems to think hes got a Bulgarian one somehow Wonder if he's been lined up for the national team since they're totally shite. Yeah theyve done it before a couple of times

It's one of the most ridiculous posts I've ever seen on here.

:lol:

Loan deal

Was a fairly enjoyable game. Huge boost to have Shelvey back.

Next tweet, outside chance he's back this weekend.

I'd be absolutely stunned if this happened, tbh.
