Aston_Villan4 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 £23 million is really the 11th highest LB signing of all time? Seems crazy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is the list people are relying on then it’s not adjusted for inflation, some of those in the top 10, and even top 15 are from 5,6 or even 10 years ago. I think transfer prices have risen well in excess of inflation too… so I would say he probably isn’t even top 15-20 when that’s taken in to account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mic09 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I love these stats. 11th most expensive left back? SKY always like to come up with these, like the first left footed south american player to score on consecutive mid week games. Too much trivia for me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to Luke Shaw for being on both the most expensive LB of all time list and biggest clearing in the woods of all time list. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inflation or not, still crazy price considering contract length, form and age, never thought he is that good either. Hickey would be most likely more value for money.
