I know you'll probably roll your eyes at the thought of reading it, but there is a bit of a background as to how he got so many followers and how it all begun.

Behind the Curtain With Soccer’s Prophet of the Deal (Published 2022)
Fabrizio Romano has turned rumors and a catchphrase into an industry. But is he an observer of soccer’s multibillion-dollar transfer market, or a participant in it?www.nytimes.com
I doubt it will change your opinion of him but I found it an interesting read.
His accuracy rate is way too good for this.
How the fuck is 80 mil fair price if that is what was paid for him, but since then he has not lived up to the expectations?!?!?!
Different journalists do this for different clubs.
I guess it's possible, as an Italian, he gets some news from Conte/Paratici and Italian clubs. Possible.
if anyone can get players back to their best its conte
And Toby (not directly, but bond with Jan was formed there) ... And Eriksen
Why would it be hard to value Bremer at 10m more than Sanchez when Bremer is a better player ?Very fair points you made
I've said it before - I think his faith rests on the offers we get for him + I would now add his own satisfaction in the club as well.
If best offer is like 25 mil and say Bremer would cost 35-40 mil (they are same age) - then it is hard to justify such swap honestly. On the other hand if someone is willing to cough up 35 mil for him and we'd get Bremer/Ndica for same amount or less, then it is far more tempting.
But other factor is his own mindset. If he is currently happy with his position and willing to work hard and prolong the deal on reasonable conditions - then it means club does not have to rush. Sure, if he has 1 year left and he will be bench player - it is one story. But if deal is prolonged and he gets similar playing time as in last season - then I not see big change in his value.
To be honest, I have been very critical of him in the past. But now I am somehow edging towards him staying. I think there will be lot of time to be found for him to cover and rotate with Romero and Dier in coming season.
Behind a paywall and 12ft ladder doesn't work. Can you c and p?I know you'll probably roll your eyes at the thought of reading it, but there is a bit of a background as to how he got so many followers and how it all begun.

Tell that to the people who, in all seriousness, started this Newcastle debate, and kept it going, rather than to a poster who (hopefully) ended - or at least tried to end - the debate with a "statement" post
