Village Idiot Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Verratti has sacked his agent and will now be repped by Raiola. That should put the kibosh on us signing him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Real or Man U then? IMHO, means he's staying at PSG. His agent publicly angled for a move and now's sacked, and Raiola seems to be in good terms with PSG. I won't be surprised if a new contract is signed soon.

STM Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Not sure Delph will ever regain his form and motivation. I'd have taken him here, like but largely to keep Colback away from the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Barcelona have bid €80million (£72m) for Liverpool's Brazil midfielder Philippe Coutinho. Good price in today's market if they get him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Considering Lukaku's £75m, £72m for Coutinho is a snip like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Increasingly obvious it's a bubble, which at some point will pop. All of a sudden no-one will be willing to match expected TV rights on the next deal and suddenly clubs will find themselves with ludicrous financial obligations and much less income, or something of the sort. It may be a long time till it pops who knows but it's getting so far out of line with any kind of sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I reckon these fees are about three times what I'd say would seem appropriate (whatever that means when we're talking about buying footballers). £24m for Coutinho, £25m for Lukaku, £18m for Walker seems alright; big money for top players but fair enough. It's just gone ballistic in the last year or so. This market is mental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 The rate of it getting out of control has accelerated so much in the past year. Generally speaking, above average players go for what you would have paid for an excellent player just a few years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
