I dont think we can let the disaster Keane has had cloud our judgement on any centre half that fits the bracket off english, youngish and at a club lower in the table.

Thats like saying we shouldnt buy Lozano or Ziyech because we bought Klaassen from the eredivise
You'd be surprised how many people think like this. My missus, for instance, refuses to go back to any restaurant where she had a bad meal, despite the fact that there are plenty of other options and that she'd probably just made the wrong call with her choice.
 
According to the Italian papers inter need 45 mill and may sell Brozovic or perisic. Its probably rubbish particularly because Brozovic was on fire at the end of the season but have been linked with him for a while now.
 
Their backgrounds aren't similar at all career wise, classie was a toured prospect who by the time he came England was regarded as a busted prospect, think he'd even lost his place at Ajax for a couple of seasons as a starter, Klassen captained them to several league titles and a European final as a lynchpin of the side.

One went to Belgium as the only interest, the other had Napoli wanting him last January.
Not that it really matters but he didn't captain them to any league titles and only really contributed in one of the 3 seasons when they did win the league.
 

Wish the Arnautovic for £50m shouts would go away it's making me nervous. If we even thinking of doing that and i don't believe we are, we may have kept vacation Steve in the job. We've already said we are going to be more prudent and youthful, a 29yr old for that price is neither of those things and he's decidedly average to boot.
I'm tempted to say dont worry, it'll never happen. But I said exactly the same thing about Allardyce.

No way I'm tempting fate ever again.
 

I'd genuinely shop exclusively overseas. We have enough 'proven' players in the squad to build around, who cares about English/not English. We can get a better player for half of the price. As if we paid 30m for Keane - shocking! 27m for Bolasie. Unreal. Liverpool got one of the best players in the world for a mere 13m more than we paid for Bolasie. They got Mane for far less than we paid for Sigurdsson.

Build a squad around Pickford, Coleman, Holgate, Gueye, Walcott, Sigurdsson and Tosun.

You say you’d shop exclusively from overseas and then comment how Liverpool got good value from signing Mane, who they bought from Southampton.
You’d also build the team around 7 players, 6 of which we bought from UK teams.
 
Being linked with 21 year old Man City Left Back "Angelino", he spent last year at NAC breda in Holland on loan, PSV enquired about him and were allegedly told £10m

I nearly mentioned this lad as a potential signing yesterday. Very highly rated. Completely unproven aside from one good season in Holland though so didn’t bother.

Edit/ no I don’t profess to being some sort of super scout. I was reading up on highly rated young left backs cos I was bored and his name came up.
