Cronky Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 2 hours ago, madras said: Rice going for 100mill, Caicedo, when he goes will go for more, Hojland was 70mill etc. Is everyone overpaying ? Interesting question. Fees seem to be stabilising a bit around 100m at the top end, and some players (eg Rice) have an inflated fee IMO, and others (eg Bellingham) seem under-priced. Coupled with that, you have players going much cheaper (MacAllister, Haaland, Gvardiol) either because they have a buy-out clause or because the player has made it known that there's only one club they'd consider and no real auction takes place. But yes, at the top end, there are going to be some spectacular mistakes. Darwin Nunez is one, I think. Rice will be another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) I truly believe that in some cases clubs see the spending of high fees as quality defining in itself. If you spend £100m ish on Rice or Caicedo, then just like that, they're a £100m player by definition and there's a circular logic of spent £100m on them = they're a £100m player = we spent £100m on them. And some supporters buy into that logic as well, particularly the 'we won the transfer window spending' dickheads on Twitter.

Conjo Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Nunez could still come good imo. It felt like he missed an incredible amount of good chances last season and still got 15 goals in 42 appearances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will withhold opinion on Nunez until Bank Holiday Monday when we’ve played them. Last time I panned him, the cunt scored against us. Rice I reckon will be steady but unspectacular. They’ll get 8 years from him, the odd trophy but won’t win the league or UCL. Whether that qualifies as success is relative to Arsenal fans and the Twitter maniacs that follow them.
