Football is mental, transfer fees mean **** all and are usually PR (i.e. not even the real fee!) Get over it! The current going rate for top Championship players is £12-15m. I appreciate inflated market and all that but it is still a huge jump to £20m. 1

I appreciate inflated market and all that but it is still a huge jump to £20m. But we probably are paying 12-15m with a neverending list of add ons. I'm just trying to understand why anyone still worries about fees. The fact is it's a business and there's not a chance in hell they'd ever reveal the actual fee so they just pick a number out of the air that suits both sets of fans from a PR perspective or say undisclosed. 1

Was that Knowitall? Thought he just hung around the training ground. Probably the best example of an "ITK" flouncing off when doubted.

Probably the best example of an "ITK" flouncing off when doubted. We had a few, I'm sure there was one whose dad had found out he was repeating everything on here. I don't know... time has merged the truth and guess work!

I wouldn't flinch at £20m. Seems like a good deal if we can get him for that. He'll double his value in 12 months.

I'm not particularly worried, just shocked at how many now consider it the norm. It does make me chuckle that so many of the people in this thread acting like it's nothing, or critisising those who think the fees are a tad ludicrous, are some of the very first ones to lose their shit when they realise we've spent £25m on a donkey. (Not saying that's you by the way.) 2

I bet that was said in the Iheanacho thread. I know "just pay whatever it takes" was said in the Musa thread a few times. 1

This is a goer folks, done and dusted in the next couple of days, no problem: http://sport.bt.com/football/james-maddison-linked-with-leicester-move-S11364276258592 So he's from Coventry and lives in Norfolk? Just how many fvcking fingers has he got? 8
Suzie the Fox Posted 5 June 2018 Posted 5 June 2018 Without sounding more of a bimbo or anything will Maddison be a replacement for Mahrez? Or is Roberts the intended replacement? In which case who would Maddison be replacing? Shinji/Silva/Nacho? Or is he just an addition to the squad? And if we do get Maddison will we still want Roberts. If not then will then will the Mahrez to Man City deal have to be looked at again with just an offer of £££ ? Confused.com
