Joao felix was a really good young talent that was worth tops 50m punt

That talent has all things considered failed in a top league and is now worth 25m

That’s what I’d risk on joao felix

The fact someone once overpaid by double shouldn’t cloud this
 

You won’t get round me like that!

I do a great stand up Best Man’s speech btw

He'd be wasted in a Conte setup to a lesser extent than the way he's been wasted in the Simeone one. Under someone like Guardiola I think he'd find his feet, he's a technically exceptional footballer who just doesn't have that explosiveness to play under managers who predominantly rely on the counter.
 
Fuck Joao Felix, we already resigned his PES regen last season and he was dead, no soaking wet skinny players who will get injuries from a paper cut please, thank you.

Very glad that moronic cliches like this won't actually lead our transfer business. Imagine if we'd missed out on Modric because he was skinny? It's about technique & brains, not brawn. Gil didn't struggle because he's not jacked for fuck sake.
 
PLUS he was literally photographed holidaying with Emerson last weekend. That bodes well
Maybe Everton are gonna bid for Emerson instead?!

They are both International teammates, so I wouldn't say it's a given...
Declan Rice to Chelsea ALWAYS comes up 'cos of his Bromance with Mason Mount... hasn't happened yet! (Thought it might well happen now I've said it won't!)
 
I don’t get it. Paul says expect deals to come out of nowhere while Spurs work under the radar and then goes and straight up denies any Felix interest like he knows everything going on. These ITKs are so funny man
 
5-7m loan fee for Gil......Lukaku just gone for 7m loan. I think not

Chelsea want Lukaku off the payroll, Inter pleading extreme poverty (big debt problems so Chelsea know that, Lukaku sayinhg he only wants to go to Inter and willing to take a paycut to get it done.

So a £100m+ striker (bought from Inter 12 months ago) on a 5 year contract, so a loan fee of £20m+ is fair, is offloaded for a £7m loan fee.

So the £7m loan fee is not a good market benchmark .....
 
Appreciate your point but it’s fair to say módric was an anomaly….. he turned out to be one of the best players in world who remains one of the best players in the world at 36

Guys a super talented freak …. It’s not happening again

There's a massive list of extremely lightweight players who have many successes of themselves in the Premier League or in football as a whole. You don't even need to be exceptionally talented, Lingard is mediocre & weighed less than 60KG yet made a PL career for himself with United and became an England international.

People just lean in to the lazy reasons don't succeed .. oh Gil was skinny, that's why he struggled.
