Fernando 6,585 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Everton’s £50m move for Sigurdsson may be completed ‘within days’ https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/aug/02/everton-gylfi-sigurdsson-swansea-midfielder-callum-connolly-paul-clement This is getting absurd. Say what you want about the board but this market is crazy and they been doing good. We just need to put more trust in youth.

I think he doesn't want to be in Messi's shadow anymore, in PSG and even whole France league, he will be the main star. Although I also can't understand his decision, of course he will receive more money, but If I were him, I'd never go from one of biggest team in the world and playing with the likes of Messi, Suarez and Iniesta to PSG and weaker league. But wathever is said, this deal is huge and will be remembered for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 When Real used to buy new toys, you could get one of the old toys at a good price (Robben, Sneijder off the top of my head).

robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 13 minutes ago, Henrique said: Pogba is a poor man's Kante. disagree. Very different characteristics: Kante has the work rate, but pogba has the technique. Combine the two and you would have an almost perfect mid (still missing the goals though). BTW, while kante's work rate can be very valuable to any side, I think refined technique is rarer, and consequently, more expensive. One could say Fabregas is poor man's pogba. I'm in the minority here as I think Fabregas cannot possibly play week in and out effectively replacing Matic (there was a reason Matic played).

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Morata initial fee is 58m, Lukaku is 75m, Pogba is 89m. If Pogba considered to be a bargain, then Morata is deal of century. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
