Other clubs transfer thread Summer 2017 ( Barcelona sign Dembele)

They were both teenagers when they moved and English. I get the over pricing of young talents because the money can be recouped when you sell them.

And I'd still rather have Sterling than Sigurdsson.

Klaus

Well Rüdiger just cost Chelsea £30 million with 20 starts for Roma as the high point in his career. City signed a one-season wonder goalkeeper for £35 million. We paid the same for Mustafi last season. None of them were English. I don't think the fee for Sigurdsson is out of line with the market. It's just what you have to pay for established players nowadays.

If Swansea really gets 50m for Sigurdsson, our Lacazette deal is starting to look like a real bargain. The market is so inflated all our perceived valuations are thrown out of the window. Messi just signed a 1m-a-week new contract as well, which would be like 220m for Barcelona at the end of his contract. How then is 80m a good deal to sell Alexis?

Chelsea will get Morata if they are willing to pay, no doubts about that. United simply thinks Lukaku is more worth it for this much than Morata. Hope they are wrong but either way both clubs will challenge for the title next season.

It's Leicester who want him though, not Everton.

Everton rumours have been popping up all over the place in recent days.

The mid table premier league sides would be far better off investing in youth, the academy and infrastructure with all the extra money they have. It very rarely works out for them when they try to spend big.

Watch us sell Alexis for £50 Mn.

I was thinking about it the other day, Everton's billionaire owner wants them to be in UCL. They have made plenty of solid Tottenham level signing, but not sure if it's going to propel them up any positions. Then again, Spurs have finished in the top 4 past 2 seasons with a lesser squad on paper than the big boys and Leicester have won the title.

They have spent about 90m this year on 9 players, have a great academy, probably one of the best in the league given how many young talents broke through and they still looked far off.

Their starting lineup as things stand looks something like

Pickford
Coleman Keane Williams Baines
Schneiderlin Gueye Klassen
Sandro Rooney Barkley

Don't even looked like they have improved at all.

If United couldn't get Morata and had to switch to Lukaku then I don't think Chelsea will get him either. Can't see Madrid letting him go.

I think they will get him as long as R.Madrid want to sell. R.Madrid were trying to create a bidding war between Man Utd & Chelsea, now only Chelsea left. No other club in world football will pay the kind of money R.Madrid want either so they'll be daft to turn it down.

I personally think if United could have got him they would have got him.

Nothing about anything United does says class. Anyway, done and dusted.

Not worried at all about Utd signing Pookaku. £75mil for a significant downgrade on Ibrahimovic.

It's actually 100m effectively (75 plus 15 in add ons plus Rooney going the other way). Madness.

All wrapped up.

He'll do well but they could have signed much better for the silly money they've chucked at him

I don't think Rooney counts as an addition. United had to pay him £10m to go away. 😆

Thats a very mediocre squad. Whether he does well or not for United Everton are going to seriously miss Lukaku. Where are they going to get another striker on that level?

Read lots of reports about United having to subsidise his wages as well.

I heard that's what the £10m is for.

Lukaku doesn't seem to have thanked Everton at all really in his statement - not very classy really. It's not hard to say thanks.

Segway

Lukaku really comes off like a massive twat. Laughable really.
