Antony went for £82mil at 22 years old. Minteh is only 19! How many more games had Anthony played?… not sure anyone outside of Man City and Chelsea have 40 mill for a teenager with barely one full season under his belt in a league where tackling is frowned upon… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole Palmer had played 19 league games for City before he went to Chelsea. Endrick, Vinicius Jnr, Rodrygo all plucked from Brazil aged 17-18 for massive fees after barely turning professional. There's a race amongst the big clubs to beat each other to the next superstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 34074 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 If he’s that highly rated you’d think the club would be doing everything to convince Almiron to go to Saudi Arabia. Rather than flog this kid to a PL rival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21287 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 2 hours ago, Kid Dynamite said: This is exactly why we bought Kuol and Minteh tbf. If we can make £30-40mil pure profit then that means we have wiggle room to keep Bruno/Isak AND buy an Olise or similar. agreed. If a bid of £40m comes in it’s a no brainer. He might turn out to be class but it’s someone else’s gamble and we can reinvest the cheddar elsewhere. We’re going to have to sell some players as long as this ffp bollocks is in place. Send him packing along with Miggy and Wilson and we’re looking at a decent war chest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t produced a youngster as good as those you mention since Gazza and we’ve done precisely fuck all to help Minteh’s development apart from by him from Odense who will obviously get a cut, lowering the PSR benefit. Maybe Edwards is doing some typical football journo maths ie Slot + Minteh + PSR = transfer . Maybe there’s something in it. It would be fuckin galling selling him to those fuckers mind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6816 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I assume he's coming in as Pope's long term successor. Dubravka undoubtedly cost us points in the second half of the season and I suspect Howe wants him gone 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2311 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Leicester supposedly want Longstaff for 15 million, but that's according to the Mirror so take it for what you will. As much as I've criticised him I'd be holding out for 20m at least given the current state of transfer fees. But Longstaff seems like a good pure profit sacrifice when we have Tonali coming back, and Miley in the background, who can both do that cover ground and mopping up job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4650 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I dont see the value in letting Longstaff go for so little tbh. A 26 year old, experienced PL midfielder shouldnt be going anywhere for so little money. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
