But how they paid for Diaby makes no difference - Brummie mentioned paying x upfront - that’s irrelevant to PSR Ah, i see why you would assume that, lack of clarity from me. I wasn't suggesting the upfront bit was anything to do with PSR, I mentioned up front and bonuses to illustrate that the actual fee was much less than what was reported.

If he comes to us, plays well, and Madrid want him then so be it. He'll be on a 6 year contract and they'll pay through the nose for him.

I misread your initial post tbf - it was clear. I'm still choosing to believe he cost £50m minimum though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they throw the big money at him, it will be now. Otherwise they'll wait for the next wonderkid, get a kid from the Portuguese league or get an established star for free.

KaKa Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 4 hours ago, Froggy said: From what I'm seeing it's €7m a year +€2m in bonus add ons. Works out around £110k per week base? It's a high wage for a teenager but don't think it's ridiculous. The fee is the real shocker for me, as he was in the last year of his deal, which is why Real didn't want to pay a high fee. Also, isn't this just the whole Di Maria thing again, where his preference was elsewhere, but the big money has been used to sway him? Sure I've seen you say recently that you were going to be moving away from both these sorts of actions going forward? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hilarious how Man Utd fans are twisting themselves inside out to try and convince us all it’s a brave new world and they won’t over pay then they pay £60m+ on an 18 year old with about 40 games under his belt and with a year left on his contract.

You were criticising us last week for only offering £50m for a 22 year old with 40 games under his belt. Yoro is 3-4 years younger and is £42m + add ons. 1 hour ago, KaKa said: Also, isn't this just the whole Di Maria thing again, where his preference was elsewhere, but the big money has been used to sway him? I think most people need to understand that almost every players preference will be Real Madrid. You think Isak, Bruno G etc. want to play for Newcastle over Real Madrid? Of course not. Garnacho, Hojlund etc. if the opportunity came to go to Madrid they're not saying no, but that's not to say that you shouldn't sign them and play them in the first place. We're signing what people are describing as a generational talent on a 6 year deal. If he's great for 6 years it's well worth the money, and I'm sure the people in charge now will be smart enough to not lose him for free. It's a positive signing.

I criticised Man Utd for bidding way off what the selling club wanted it could have £50m it could have been £20m my criticism was that it’s a waste of time strategy and sure enough Everton end up selling another player and not needing the money Edited 4 minutes ago by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to tell me what to understand. The point is that you've seemingly thrown money at his club and the player to pressure him to join you. Similar to the Di Maria situation. Paying £42 million plus add-ons, for a player who is in the last year of his contract, and to use your logic, has only had one good year in France for that matter, seems very excessive.

We've spent less. and not sure if you're aware but your value is higher the younger you are if you're already established. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
