This Donnarumma performance has got me dreaming of having a proper world class keeper 

 

I know we will probably be in for Trafford, but honestly I'd be happy to wait another year with Pope/Dubs if we could get our own Allison/Courtois etc 

 

Obviously easier said than done, I'm sure out scouting knows better than me, and he could end up class... Just seems having a very good goalkeeper is massive ceiling raiser, especially in Cup competitions 

Surely Trafford is one of the few goalies who could still reach World class level? he's still only 22 and conceeded 16 goals this year.

If Tino was £40M (including add-ons) off the back of a massive ACL injury, and Hall was £35M (including add-ons) after a handful of first-team games two seasons ago, I'm not sure how people are thinking Elliott's worth much less than £40M.

Sorry Rich, meant to reply to this as my first post came across as Flippant.

 

I think with Tino and Hall they were both highly rated and playing in positions which feels quite difficult to fill, also a younger age profile as well 

 

Elliot has come off a middling season and is 22, he lacks the athleticism and pace to play out wide so you have to play him centrally imo, which begs the question. Are you willing to pay 40m for a reserve cm?

 

They may get 40m for him after all Arsenal rinsed Fulham for 40m for ESR but I think he doesn't make much sense for us.

 

Although, I Caveat all of this by saying if Eddie wants him im in.

Along with his shot creating actions and unsuccessful tackle percentage, I trust Fbref is telling everyone about how to say Igor's name.

Just a small thing, it was £27m Arsenal got for him (maybe more if clauses are met). £30m feels the upper end for these type of deals, not £40m that.

Close enough, the point being that Cartel clubs always get high fees for players who have played first team minutes.
