Confirmed Signing James Rodriguez

[Bob Latchford]

Imagine thats £12mil direct to Madrid, but about 5mil to James to pay off the wage difference in the last year of his contract, signing fee and possible an agents fee.
So probably about £20mil all in all. Maybe there's bonuses in there somewhere as well.

Very complex these transfer fee's - probably why most clubs just file them as 'undisclosed'

There’s probably also his image rights and such matters which would be colossal to someone like him. No matter what negative things have been written about him, at 29 we’ve went and got ourselves a truly world class player who could make a hugely positive impact on this team. Still can’t believe it.

This fake news is even funnier after recent events.

Running out of money to the point we buy a worldwide superstar.

I’m only slightly embarrassed that I’ve watched the training video with the lob and overhead kick upwards of 20 times. He’s amazing

Dont give a toss how much he cost really. Carlo wanted him, we needed him, and we got him. End of story, not arsed with the rest of it.

That RM free kick he takes, up from the corner flag that goes in off the back post, thats just sensational!

Reckon he'll start Vs Spurs? It's hard to predict our line up when we've basically had no preseason.
