Murphy has had a cracking season, but I’d still not be surprised if a bidding club offered half that figure - which will help keep him here. I can’t see anyone offering close to £30m.

Pilko Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Rafa's transfer record against the backdrop of Ashley's NUFC and an overall net spend of around £10-£15m across his entire time here should be lauded and celebrated IMO. Even some of the shakier signings were either free or we recouped virtually the entire fee a year or so later. 23 permanent signings and there's about 3 duds in there, I don't see how people can put so much of a negative spin on it. Even Fergie signed fucking Djemba-Djemba and Kleberson ffs. Even some of the loan moves he made like Kenedy and upgrading Gayle for Rondon for a year were excellent. We operated like we didn't have a pot to piss in and he got us promoted at a relative canter and consolidated us for two years on a shoestring.

I can’t see anyone offering close to £30m. I think we'd sell for £30m, but we might well refuse £20m. And if we DID sell for £30m, I'd not be dancing in the streets thinking we'd robbed someone. People have talked about him maybe getting an England call-up. He's been sheer end product for us. He isn't the complete player, sure, but he's a very solid PL winger who provides goals and assists. That's worth a lot. Either way, he's been well worth what we paid for him. Edited April 8 by Chris_R Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
