Not a bad price, TBF. That shirt could do a better job than Janssen did, and he cost twice as much.

With Argentina's Under-20s in action, the country's FA president Claudio Tapia was in town to unveil the new Maradona tribute.
Tapia beamed as he posed for photos next to the work, designed by Spanish artist Rafa Ferri.
But fans have been quick to slate the artwork online, likening it from Sylvester Stallone to Bruce Lee.
One social media user wrote: "Have respect for Diego!"
While a second joked: "Oops Diego melted."
A third tweeted: "Hahahaha what is that."
And another questioned: "Nobody saw that lack of respect before presenting it?"
The statue drew comparisons with other botched works from down the years.
Madeira Airport infamously unveiled an awful statue of Cristiano Ronaldo back in 2017.
While a previous attempt at Maradona in Kolkata drew comparisons with Susan Boyle.
Manchester City erected a statue of Sergio Aguero outside Etihad Stadium at the end of the last season - only for Toni Kroos to mockingly point out that it looks more like him.

One thing I found strange in relation to Maradona recently was a picture of the Hand of God incident signed by Peter Shilton. It was in one of those signed memorabilia shops and I found it hard to believe that Shilton would sign anything in relation to the HoG since he was the player Maradona directly cheated and has been one of the most vocal in his condemnation of the incident.
I've read Maradona's autobiography and he refers to Shilton as a "thermos head" so not a lot of mutual respect there.
