Funkyflashman 187 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 It's worth noting that we are victims of the way we have conducted our transfer business in the past. It's all very well saying "I hate (insert Whelan/Da Costa/Levy) because they are overcharging hugely for their players" but they all know that we are prepared to pay over what a player is worth in order to get him. We're a big club and because of that, we're going to have to be prepared to pay more than others. With Hulk, porto know they could sell him for 30-odd million for teams who are prepared to pay what he's worth, OR they can hold out and wait for Mr Abramovich to open his cheque book. I know which Porto would rather. It's ridiculous the number of comments on this thread saying "oh we should only be paying this much for Hulk" because that won't ever happen. Porto don't need to sell. Either hes coming for a huge fee or he's not coming at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin123 533 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I believe we can overpay slightly,I'm sure shirt sales will recoup a big chunk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I believe we can overpay slightly,I'm sure shirt sales will recoup a big chunk!I dont think shirt sales for Hulk would recoup that much, its not like hes a global brand like Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar* or even Beckham. We would make at least 5% back by paying 40 odd million for him lololol. *Neymar is like the face of Brazilian football his marketing value is sky high. So dont tell me “Neymar as if hes a global brand.” lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Would you let it go already? if the club thinks Hulk is the right player for our system, and they think its worth the extra 10m-20m so we'll get even stronger and more ready going to the new season, then be it. If he'll be as good as we expect from him, no one will remember his price. And If he'll flop, it wont metter if it was 40m or 50m (Euros), and he's not Torres and his move wont be such a hugh deal as it was with Torres anyway... and another thing, people say "oh no i prefer we'll spend it on Apzi, Moses and Witsel". We wont bring any other big star this summer other than Hulk/Cavani, if we'll fail with both we wont sign someone like Witsel instead, so there is not point in those comments.
