I think the hat is a bad look. That's enough for me.

When I say Eze's deal, I mean Eze's deal. 68M.
Levy might never have agreed to that, but the point is that in having a release clause that's remotely feasible in a deal of a conservative length, Eze has maintained some degree of control of his destiny, I disagree that it's some foolish and naive agreement for him to have signed, he's done quite well.
Of course it is. Wages being the biggest predictor of league success but every transfer has a total cost with transfer fee, agent fees, and wage commitment on the contract.
That’s how clubs would look at it surely?
What about Paulinho
I've always thought he was class, but I always think the Spammers are making smart, savvy moves and they're always shit.
Respectfully; that's just silly then......... That's a third of Kane's percieved value.... The equivalent would be buying Eze for 25m and of course he'd have long since been snapped up for that.
Kudus is okay but like Mbuemo, people only see what they want to see.
Wilmar Barrios.

Yes! Thank you
I don't even really understand what detour you're tumbling down here, but it does raise a question that I don't know the answer to:
Has Levy ever agreed to a release clause? Has it ever been reported that one of our players has one?
Yours was a silly, meaningless analogy.... But we move on.
At our end? Not that I can recall.........
I think Reguilon had one set with Real Madrid but it was never triggered.
Ah, that was a buyback clause just for Real Madrid, but that's a good recall

Correction - actually it was a buy back clause not a release clause.Yes you beat me to it lol
Eze was happy to sign that deal and is very grateful to Palace.
If we, City or Liverpool want him, pay the money. It's simple.
City and Liverpool have already made their moves so just leaves us.
Spammers have three decent player Bowen who is literally wedded to the club, Paqueta facing a life ban and Kudas!
ummm, perhaps - but again it just does not tell the story at all because if it did, Man U and Chelsea would have finished the top 2 the last few years surely??
Liverpools total transfer costs are, if we were to look into it, completely dwarfed by theirs and yet here we are.
Kudus is unique can play lw for sure but also as a 10 so versatile and he's quick as a 10 option it intrigues me because he's different to maddison and can offer something different there i would get him and semenyo but that's just me we need both so kudus or eze and semenyo would go in the right way. We won't get both though but we should
Some enterprising nerd really needs to do the work to estimate wages + amortized transfer fees for each PL club.
It would be a total blind guess at the amortization schedules, but that is the only real way to get a thoroughgoing, apples-to-apples look at how much teams are spending on their squads.

If we are going to throw money at West Ham make it Bowen, less flashy but better player.
