Now this is ambition. A club just paying what it takes to get a player.
go on, who will bite
We did the same with Ndombele
In our defence, there's no way we could have known that mcflurry runs through his veins.
"Hi Daniel, we're used to be the Prem's Borussia. Any chance going back to them days? Be a good strategy that, perhaps instead of trying to copy Brentford & Brighton's models? Whatcha fink? Ta da."
....the bald cunt??......
Almost feels like we really did ignore all the red flags though, for which there were many.We did the same with Ndombele
Bellingham looks the real deal.
I think United did the same eventually with Sancho and bent over and payed the asking price.
Thing is, I always thought he was over rated and over valued. I think Rice isn't far off that so hopefully wherever he goes, hopefully West Ham get every penny for him.
Big clubs doing big things. Signing Bellingham and hosting multiple Beyonce concerts isn't for everyone and that's what differentiates clubs like Real Madrid and us from everyone else.
Had a look around to see what the general scout on him is

Things that stood out is he's great a creating/crossing from the left half space and makes a serious contribution defensively in the press for an AM.
Both sound exactly what Ange likes in a 8/10.
Guy writing that analysis wasn't worried about him physically and said he seems bigger on the ball. Pace of decision making and time on the ball in the prem maybe more of a concern.
Fucking hell, are they going to retire his shirt number as well???

Seriously, they're a better Dortmund than Dortmund are based on a) the frequency with which they turn a profit on players and b) they seem to get better every time they do it because they use the money to sign more good players
Not often I disagree with you, my man, but there were enough reports about his poor attitude, laziness, him butting heads with coaches about training etc.
I was in France rather often back then, not far away from Lyon and got to make friends with a fair few of their supporters, even a couple OL-following journos. They were all in agreement that Dombs had gold in his feet but shit in his brains.
Our scouting dept & bosses just got all dripping wet after seeing him play well vs Barca and other top sides in the CL. Aulas (OL presie) saw us coming and took us to the cleaners. They'd bought him for less than 10mil a year or so prior, no way we shoulda spent more than 30-35 on him. Or better...we should've stayed well clear of him, but our in-house geniuses decided to ignore them negative reports...or they didn't even friggin know they existed. Wouldn't be the first time due diligence wasn't done...
These are cumulative stats and PEH practically plays every minute of the season. He’s still played 200 more minutes than Rodri.
I'll be totally honest, I just wanted to make an Ndombele is fat joke.
Since when have we ever been at Real Madrid’s level?
We almost certainly never will be so if that’s your expectation, you may as well just stop following. You just seem miserable.
Borussia been doing it for ever, pal. Same with Ajax. Both European juggernauts compared to Brighton.
Don't get me wrong, I've a lot of respect for what Brighton have achieved, how they go about their business. Really, really smart club.
But a tad early to put them ahead of Borussia, my man.
Thank god he wasn’t or we never would have won all these trophies in the last 4 years.
Exactly why weren’t we after ndicka then? Not as though Roma is a massive draw. Europa sure but certainly we could’ve offered a better deal.
