They get 20% of the profit, so it's more like 7-8mApparently Liverpool have a 20% sell on clause, so if it's £60m for Solanke they get £12m.

Chris Armstrongs biggest problem was that he wasn't Klinsmann or Bergkamp.Don’t take the piss out of Chris Armstrong. He was nice enough to hold a 10 minute conversation with a 12 and 8 year old after a Wimbledon away match.
You don't need to be a chief detective to figure that out.
Your second sentence doesn't actually make sense. He hasn't said much about Solanke because he's on the list? what?
He is telling us today that Solanke was identified as the number 1 target 7/8 weeks ago. If he is aware of this then why didn't he tell us this (or even indicate it) then.
Horses for courses I reckon!

Bale was much better than Giggs and its not even close. Giggs had a good long career under one of the best managers of all time in one of the best teams ever assembled in England, and he never once had a season comparable to Bale's last season for us. When has Giggs ever scored a goal as technically exquisite and impactful as Bale's bicycle kick vs Liverpool in the CL final for RM?I don't even think he's the best Welsh player, much less British.
That weakens your argument so much. Like saying Usyk is better than Ali because you never saw Ali.
Let's hope they have structured it so the bin dippers get next to nothing!57m is very fair especially considering Liverpool are taking 20% of that.
I did this already last season..i pointed out exactly where he was wrong (because he was wrong a few times). I'll see if i can dig it out.Maybe it wasn’t made aware to him until recently. Whoever gives him info is prob busy and prob not able to keep him as up to speed as we’d like?
You can call him a fraud all you like, but I like you to point out where he’s been categorically wrong. I think you’ll struggle.
Perhaps he wasn't told 7/8 weeks ago, but told now that 7/8 weeks ago the list was narrowed down? There may be good reasons that Spurs staff wouldn't want to leak that information beforehand but feel safe to do so now.He is telling us today that Solanke was identified as the number 1 target 7/8 weeks ago.

Don't worry, I can save you the bother, I've got him in my team already and going purely off last year, I lost EIGHT of my best 11 selections out on long-term injuries before the 3rd game of the season.Time to immediately put Solanke in my FPL team and jinx him forever

Tbh I’m not that fussed don’t worry. Happy to agree to disagree..I did this already last season..i pointed out exactly where he was wrong (because he was wrong a few times). I'll see if i can dig it out.
Don’t think they need to sell regardless , they sold Olise already , if we want Eze then we just have to decide is it worth the release clause and does he want to come to us.if we actually want Eze, we should move quick as Newcasdtle are bidding on Guihi.
They won't need to sell and it'll price us out of it.
