Is Werner good then? Just before I get my hopes ready to be broken?

Also who is this years Fernando? The one Walsh will be in London allegedly getting a work permit for ?
 
As said above siggurdson had similar stats as other elite players in this league, where 45 million would have been cheap if we had signed a Mata or Silva.

Pickford? 30 million for a player who could be first choice for 15 years?
At no point did I say they were bad business, but we have not been scared of throwing big money like never before at players this season.

I think the fact that Buffon at £32 was the record fee for a goalkeeper, and that stood for 16 years suggests that £30m is a lot for that position. But once again, good business and looks a cracking player
 
IF and it's a massive blert shaped Dave Seed shaped IF, we actually did try for Werner - it'd be worse than just trying for a semi realistic target, it would clearly show we had absolutely no intention of going for an expensive/sought after player mate.

Because bidding for a 100% unavailable player is a very very safe bet to appear like you tried
Indeed grasshopper, we are well mastered in that art ;)
 

From wrd on tef:
Going to be making a bid on this kid(Raul Jimenez) as we are not willing to pay 30 million for Zahore and we certainly haven't the money as some people are thinking on here. Certainly not this window, anyway.

What I was referring to with the Barkley post yesterday, is that him and Koeman have seemed to be getting on the past couple of weeks and differences seems to be easing. Barkley has hinted very much about staying and Koeman seems to be warming to the idea. There was a fallout but that was not just between the two in question either.

Nothing new about the defender from what I posted last, so it all testing the water at the moment.

Ok

Siggurdson statistically for the past few seasons has been just as productive as similar 'elite players in that position. If we were signing Silva, Mata, fabregas, couthino, eriksen etc for a similar amount for similar output would that be overpaying?

Klassen was the captain of a Europa league finalist team at 24, title winning captain as well. International footballer, goals and assists, and Johnny Evans will cost more than him. Is Johnny Evans better at football than klassen?

Sandro, yeah right
Siggurdson is bang average
Klassen same
and sandro,did you go to Chelsea?their fans were pissing themselves at him

In a world where neymar is valued at 200 million and Chris woods is valued at 15 million is it really throwing money about?

Compared to what? Before my time but some fans remember Trevor Francis going for 1 million pounds, surely the market 15 years ago was ridiculous compared to That?

And especially considering our net spend could be getting close to 0 if we don't sign anyone and sell Ross for anywhere near what we want for him.

That is the perspective here, what some may call overpriced deals here there and everywhere and our bank balance could potentially be affected by under 10 million in terms of transfer fees despite spending over 100 million on them
