Yes he was 50m, but to get him for 50m he's had to be paid (which is rarely talked about) 2 million a month. Over 2 years that's another 50m That’s still a bargain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 last summer they were supposedly trying to buy kane for £160m this summer they got haaland for £50m + another £50m in back handers + £500k a week he's still a bargain, he'll win the lot there, if he / they play it right he'll be elevated to ronaldo and messi levels of marketing, him and mbappe for the next decade, balon dor the lot, for all their spending and their superstars city have never had anyone like him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of what BBC suggest, he is a step below Haaland, Mbappe, Lewandowski, Benzema. Not the same league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure had they signed Kane there would be payments to agents, advisors, family etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He comes across as quite relaxed and not all as as superstarily bland in the interviews I've read and seen? He areally has a bit of bite sometimes as well as a bit of tounge in cheek. One of the more interesting characters IMo, while good ol' Jack is a bit of a bimbo really. But yeah, maybe that actually is more marketable come to think of it.

a-k Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Posted this elsewhere too Quote Arkadiusz Milik thought he had scored a 95th-minute winner but it was offside. Milik, who had already been booked, took his shirt off in celebration and was sent off. While Juventus celebrated what they thought was the winning goal, it was announced it would be checked by the VAR official. That sparked an on-pitch brawl, with Salernitana's Federico Fazio and Juventus' Juan Cuadrado both shown straight red cards, while Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri was also dismissed. Milik was not offside but the third goal was ruled out as Bonucci, who tried to head the ball into the net but failed to make contact, was judged offside. Footage later emerged which appeared to show Salernitana midfielder Antonio Candreva playing everyone onside as he was near the corner flag. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/62869027 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Arsenal women sign a player from Barcelona, then immediately loan her to Everton.

In fact, it would be better for Chelsea, Chuk, a championship side he potentially goes to, English national team future, that he goes on loan. I don't really understand the opposition to loaning players, especially young ones. Everyone wins in that transaction. Not a single party is short changed.

I don't really understand the opposition to loaning players, especially young ones. Everyone wins in that transaction. Not a single party is short changed. To prevent stockpiling Chelsea, man City etc buying 5 players every summer that they have no intention of playing but will loan out for 3 or 4 years before selling them at a profit whilst at the same time preventing mid table clubs playing them and getting better or rivals from buying them and using them That is the negative angle of the loan market, Chelsea shouldn't be able to have 30 players out on loan, they shouldnt be able to do what they've just done with Lukaku or did for years with drinkwater, Barkley, bakayoko etc etc that's where the system is broken Edited September 14, 2022 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
