According to that list Mesut Ozil is worth less than what we paid for him 3 years back.
Just realised that the three biggest official transfer fees of all time are of EPL players going to the Spanish overlords. Cray. Thankfully for us, both Ozil and Sanchez have tasted those places. But are Bellerin and Ox at risk?

Messi... Neymar.. Suarez... Oxlade-Chamberlain
which of those 4 don't fit? 😃
Suarez as the only non-midget?
Uhmmm

It's something of a personal preference, Lukaku would do the business for us but as I've mentioned in other threads I'm not very fond of players who are interested in personal glory/goal tally more than helping the team out. I'd also would love someone up front for us with the skills on the ball of say a Berardi or Gabbiadini, we haven't had that for a while

I think Lukaku's technical skills is slightly underrated here. I get your point about the selfishness but I have seen more than a couple of times he does actually lay it off and help the team out. IIRC the game where they won 6-2 he had a few assists.
I'd rather have Ighalo if we're going to sign a physical striker from within the league. Neither of them is going to start for us but Ighalo is a lot cheaper and I think he has more potential upsides.
Dude, in the real world Lukaku would start over Giroud, Walcott and Welbeck every time he was available.

Suarez, as the other three are all likable chaps who don't bite their opponents.

He wouldn't start over Giroud. And that's not me being a great fan of Giroud; that's just blatantly how it is.
I respectfully disagree.

The only risk he's at is of a potential transfer back to Southampton.Â
Apparently, Chelsea is swooping in for Chambo as their Hazard replacement. 🙂
😆 Yeah, saw that on Goal. Can't say I believe it, can you imagine how underwhelmed their fans would be.
