Isnt Javi Martinez 41mil or somethingJust seen that the record Bayern have ever paid for a player is £36m for Tollisso, meaning that to get Pavard this year they'd have to surpass that quite substantially
40m Euros I believe, works out to about £35.5mIsnt Javi Martinez 41mil or something
It is a tad ridiculous that we haven't signed anybody yet nor really sold anyone either.
What's going on? Do we need to sell before we can buy? Are we waiting to see what's left after the bigger sharks have had their share? Have we already got deals in place but just waiting to announce them?
It's all quite strange especially when you consider the window is closing earlier this summer.
Bayern transfers policy is the best in world football. But with inflation they will have to start to spend more. And I wish the other German clubs all said fuck them and did not sell them another player again.Just seen that the record Bayern have ever paid for a player is £36m for Tollisso, meaning that to get Pavard this year they'd have to surpass that quite substantially
Get a grip. Where do I say we should sign just anyone. It was a self proclaimed ranty post to blow off some frustration.Your words, mate: SIGN A FUCKING PLAYER FOR FUCK SAKE!!!!
And, of course, you know better than the Club.
I'll put a word in for you.
Friday, put it in your diary.Got a funny feeling we might announce Grealish tomorrow... could be trapped wind though.
It's not complicated really. They've spunked all the money on the stadium and have to buy to sell. Personally I'd have preferred a cheaper stadium and more money available for players.

You mean sell to buy?
Also, I wouldn't say they have 'spunked' all the money on the new stadium. First of all the new stadium is beautiful, necessary and meant to last us for several generations. Certainly not money wasted.
Secondly, I'm sure our income stream should allow us to make some signings whilst paying for the new stadium.
Anyway, I guess there's no need to panic. Yet.
