The GOAT reporting that Atlanta want £52 million for him.

 

Worth it - Tino - Scalvini - Botman - Hall  - would be some defence line

 

:sweetjesus:

I have to say, coming from a time where Ryder was known as a window licker (probably still is mind) to actually reporting some decent information this summer is fucking hilarious to me.

Too risky at the price imo. (Because of his injuries, not his ability).

There is the moneyball theory that players will likely have a big injury during their careers so buying one just after his comes at a discount.

They're getting 68 million euros for Retegui from Saudi, a player they originally bought for 25 million euros simply to cover Scamacca's injury last year.

 

They're under far less pressure to sell cheap because of that.

Assuming both come in around the 50 million mark, would people prefer Guehi or Scalvini?

Guehi as prem proven plus we know he can play in high pressure games from seeing him in international tournament football. Scalvini has the bigger upside but we don’t know how the injury has affected him.

He seems to be going more quality over quantity at the moment, unfortunately the quality is so far also total shite. :lol:

Guehi as its less of a punt. If Scalvini adopted to the PL and was over his injuries then he's miles ahead.

 

I worry with botmans record we'd have two amazing cbs that never play together. Don't think we're in a position to risk thst.

At 50 million definitely Guehi, even if his wages are higher. More proven.

 

I rate Scalvini highly but 50 million plus is far too much given his injuries.

 

Scalvini makes sense at a genuine discounted price but for reasons mentioned I think it unlikely that happens.

Scalvini. Taller, aggressive on winning the ball higher up the pitch and wants to use his ball playing to attack. Not a back to walls defender, but one who can do the riskier stuff Schar does for us when we’re pinning people in. 
 

At least that’s what I recall from reading / watching him a few seasons ago when he wasn’t hurt.
