Yep, 15m upfront is shocking considering Ramsdale went for 18.5 upfront. along with other signings like Pickford/Kepa/Mendy/Patricio/Bravo all going initially for more we couldve done alot better.
Same window we paid off Mhki to go to Roma for free who has scored 9 assisted 8 and carried them early in the season. gave Sokratis money to leave for a free who is a starter at his club. no idea what was going on with us in the summer.
I thought he had really good performance for a guy who has barely seen any football as of late.
Great pressing and movement in and around the box.
His passing and finishing wasn’t as sharp but it was expected with the lack of games.
Anyway, I hope he finds a club that gives him more opportunities.
Good marketing trick, that. £20m. Changing the first digit from a 2 to a 1, bargain That’s why you get a lot .99p on prices, £10 for a pizza? No way, £9.99? Sure thing buddy.
Had a great half season at Swansea to be fair.
Eddie has barely played the last 6 months and has 1 year left in his contract.
I doubt a side will take a gamble that big on Eddie. Arsenal is also in rush to get him out so they can bring others in. Wouldn’t be surprised if goes for ~10m.
Liverpool got £20m for Dominic Solanke and they got similar for Rhian Brewster. £15m plus a few performance related adds to get the fee around the £25m range is the figure I had in mind.
