I don't believe sodaldo cost anything near the reported fee, all on the never ever. They were desperate for cash and it suited both parties to inflate it.
I thought Son cost more probably confusing euro and pounds.

If he was 3-4 years younger he'd probably be looked at by a lot more clubs. He'd significantly improve our defense for the next 2-3 years.
His current contract runs through 2023 at £50k/week, so we could significantly improve his wages and he'd walk in as first choice, so that may appeal to him. I have no idea what Wolves would want for him, I've seen everywhere from £15-50m.
If you spend big and don't win anything then youre obviously not very good at spending. Its not an excuse to stop spending big, you just sack the person spending the money.
Is this a fucking wind up or what?Tottenham begins talks to sign Gray from Leicesterone year left on contract
Tottenham make contact with Gray over summer move
Football Insider can reveal that Tottenham have already made contact with Demarai Gray about joining them from Leicester Citywww.footballinsider247.com
We are talking here about how good/bad our record transfers have been.
And basically what you are saying is that "he makes mistakes and is kind of so-so player, but one day he might become good".
Thaaaat is awful recap for record transfer, sorry.
Record arrival should be someone who kicks down the door, is nailed down starter and leader at least in his line.
While in all honesty Sanchez has been just bit more than a squad player. 3 seasons after his arrival and in none of the seasons has anyone considered him "best defender of the season". So yea... as record transfer he has not fulfilled hopes.
I hope he can improve and iron out the mistakes, improve his focus and play calmer. But the fact is that he still needs to improve a great deal.
Exactly what happened at Woolwich !
Money is tight, there is very little to spend so the likes of Gray is as good as it gets for now. We will have to wait until next summer when we bank 140-180 mill from the sale of Kane before we will be able to sign anyone decent
There's spending big, spending big continually and spending the most..... Far from black & white.
If it was down to money alone PSG would have won the CL the other night.... Higher wages & more expensive squad than BM.
Meanwhile we operate in a league with 3 richer, consistently big spending teams + another two that traditionally have been richer than us throughout the EPL era.... No other league can boast that kind of financial adversity.

Like clockwork
Excellent player for counter football.
In the case of Dav that's NOT the expectation he arrived with as a 21 yr old CB form a weaker league....
We've done a pretty shabby job of nurturing our investment in his case too.
There are varying profiles/expectations of players within the realms of being expensive.....
Soldado (eg) & Dav are worlds apart in that respect yet both were 'record breakers'.....
You’ve been saying that since 2016
Not me mate, must have been someone else
Homegrown too
Would be "ambitious" too considering he would be coming from a team that were considered far beyond us last season and can boast more recent success than us.
#thfc have registered their interest in signing Bournemouth striker Joshua King. The player has one year remaining on his current contract with the club. [Football Insider]
