I really don't think any of those valuations are accurate, tbh. If anyone had the chance to get Hakimi for less than 60 million I imagine every super club in Europe would bid. If Trent was available for 72 then the same deal.
The RB spot is really thin in terms of quality, you've got a handful of genuinely world class prospects & then a huge drop off. Clubs will pay 100m+ imo if they have the chance to get one of the elite ones.
"Availability"
They all have a few years left on their deals, so being that they're already at big clubs they're not likely to be made "available" until they reach the "re-new or sale" impass in the final year or two of their deals.
Fuck knows what "worth/value" equates to in tangible terms when you have freakish behaviour distorting the market, but until then admittedly it would take ransom money to get them out of their clubs.
Annoying he’s at Chelsea he would be incredible in this system.
Meanwhile, over in the land of never, never...

WLB: "U turn on this something’s changed"

Indeed.... 93% of the forum rated it 8/10 or above.... Perhaps they had good reason to at the time.
He's the only player I would genuinely throw the kitchen sink at.
There's so much upside to that transfer. But alas it won't happen.
I gave him 18-months to 2 years when he joined them, i still think his history shows he's a bit of a dickhead as we're witnessing and if they have a rough season i think he'll either jump or get the sack.
Kulu has had more impact in his short period at spurs than traore in his whole career. He is shit. Can't cross and can't shoot, beats men by running into awful positions. End product is required not some muscle bound speed merchant with zero end product.
There are some desperately high amounts of money being thrown around for players late in the window, with neither Anthony nor Fofana worth anywhere near the cash.
overall we have had a great window and I don’t want us doing something silly late. That said, I’m a little disappointed we have only spent the money we would normally do with CL TV money etc and not touched the 150m squid that ENIC pledged.
Maybe we are saving it for January?

We probably would have spunked another 50 to 60 if we could have prised a world class CB , particularly a LCB. There’s just no point in chucking Fofana or Anthony or Gordon money for players worth half of what’s being asked just because…..
If this player has so much talent, why are Sheffield United selling him for only £2m?
Nope.
Why?
2m is pretty steep a price for a 17 year old, the scouts would know what they are seeing
Yikes , David Cameron is on here
