£80m for Maguire fucking hell. No way is he worth that, but I suppose Van Dijk set the precendent before the 'English Premium'. Still after Mourinhou was saying Pogba did well at the world cup because it's easy to motivate yourself and perform at a higher level at a cup he now buys a cb because he did ok at the world cup  :lol:

Ashley / Barnes have interfered with Rafa's incoming transfers but not on the outgoings yet. Would be interesting if a player gets sold against Rafa's wishes. Can't see anything but Rafa walking if Lascelles is sold.

I can see Lascelles being tempted to a move to a CL team, but Leicester? Nah, not for me.

 

That won't stop Ashley pushing him out at the first sign of money. Shit money in this market, at that.

People are saying this about Leicester but he might just be fed up with the way the club is ran here like most of us. If Rafa goes, which is likely in a years time, he might see this being a sinking ship and Leicester at least being a viable option of half decent Premier League football. Not just that but if the club accepts, then to me as a player that provides just about enough reason to not want to stay in the first place. We lose Lascelles at this stage and we're entirely fucked because that money won't be reinvested and actually he's virtually irreplaceable in the current set up. Leaders like him don't grow on trees. Honestly, like if we sell Lascelles, Rafa may as well tell the club to go fuck itself for me.

Aye, I usually roll my eyes whenever I see '£XXm for X player :lol:' but the fees mentioned for Maguire and Ings are just ridiculous, they're both so far beyond the recent inflation levels it's crazy.

Mmm. :sadnod: The whole thing makes me feel very detached from footy, regardless of our debilitating frugalism. £26m for Ings ffs. Considering his injury record he's just about worth a punt at £12-14m in today's market.

Lascelles is easily as good a player. I doubt even Ashley would be that stupid.

 

Once he gets into the England squad, people will really begin to take notice. Value will sky rocket.

 

It’s only a matter of time then before he does move. We should prepare for that because no matter who the club would bring in, there would be a massive void left which would suck the club into the abyss.

 

This club is literally always about one or two mistakes away from catastrophe.. I’m sick of it.

Virgil van Dijk cost £75m like, six months after a £60m deal for him fell through. And Leicester are in a far stronger position than Southampton are/were.

 

+ the English/WC star premium
