66 million on a goalie does defy logic it must be said.
Premier League football really is FANTASY LAND.

Fantasy Football!
Meant more that Leicester fell of a fucking cliff after winning the title. Regardless, I don't want to get too deep into my own shitty metaphor.
The main point I was making is that Salah had a huge outlier of a season based on his career up until that point, and secondarily, that comparing it to Kane's breakout season is bad for a number of reasons.
Another master stroke...
Worth every penny of that £67m

To be fair, that was before Neymar. Neymar changed everything. Pogba was the world record signing at the time, and Liverpool's largest outlay for a single player is still nearly a third of the record transfer, and only half the amount they got for selling Coutinho.klopp is just a yelloe teeth cunt
But football is mad though. I remember being incredulous when Ronald (the original) was signed by Inter and was earning £80,000 per week. Nowadays that doesn't get you Vardy. Madness!
surprise surprise...Liverpool sign someone, and its less than a day before the BBC puff piece appears:
Alisson: Liverpool's world-record signing from Roma is 'goalkeeper of the future'
The goakeeping coach at Roma made sneezy look so good, Juve signed him to replace Buffon. he's made this guy look like a star (no idea how good he is. he looked no better than mignolet and karius in the CL games though)
maybe thats who they should have looked at signing

I do wonder..if he does something like that for the dippers, will the press lay into him like they did Paul Robinson for his mistake away in Russia for england?
I have my doubts
A GK is vital IMO. 66m for a world class keeper isnt too bad.
50m for Ricarhlison. Now thats fucking mental.
If you say so mate.
Just shows how the dial in terms of money and valuation has become so skewed.
66 million not bad - amazing to me.
A lot of players to bed into a specific system but they have indeed bought well, we shall see.
All Im saying is if Neymar is 200 and Coutinho is 140m. VVD 70. Richarlison 50m. 66 aint bad for a 25 yeard old world class keeper with 10 years left.
Obviously its all bonkers money.
