That advice would benefit Horsechoker.
how fecking stupid do Liverpool look right about now? Luis fecking Suarez for only 75 million? Seriously? Their muppets must be on suicide watch.
I'm tired guys, I'm all Pogged out for the day. See you in the AM.
Different situation. They had to sell, really. His image was too toxic in England after the World Cup.
to be honest even i thought 75 million was a damn good deal at the time based on his age and image of the player. bale and ronny were much younger and had more of a lifespan. Juventus are the ones that went muppet crazy with paying that much for him. Imagine us paying that kind of money for rvp in 2012 even if he had 5 years left on his contract
This is looking good now. Juve got Higuaín, so now this deal can go ahead. IMO, Juve are putting it on somewhat, making themselves seem hard to negotiate with. Which makes sense for them, it might put off clubs from going for their players in the future.
i disagree. they panicked. Everyone knew who Luis Suarez was. No one truly cared because he was a brilliant footballer.
Imagine if you wake up and this is your last post in the thread because its locked
75 million wasn't really a good deal since the market was putting its first feet into madness. David Luiz? Liverpool should have realized that the new TV deal money was going to let loose chaos. they could have gotten 100 million for him, easily.
Especially with both Madrid and Barca needing strikers.
Oh wow, I can't wait for tomorrow now! I still can't believe we're about to break the world record to sign arguably the most promising young player in world football! Praying for a BBC article tomorrow morning!
oh, young muppet. your naive outlook is endearing.

Even now that sent chills down my spine.Last time it was:
BBC: Van Gaal signs 3 year contract extension, Mourinho confirmed for PSG
...didn't go down well; Sorry Rado
Damn that was quick. He copied from the Italian papers so fast.
what would the TV deal in england have to do with Madrid and Barca. Luiz was a train wreck that year just came off a ban and went on to have another one where barca couldnt play him till end of october. Where liverpool were asshats was not getting Sanchez in exchange
Journalism!!!!
You think this is a game?
Although I think you're gonna get a threadban for that post there to be honest
He probably will.I guess it matters less to me because I actually don't want us to sign Pogba. Don't get me wrong, he's a terrific talent and will be great for us, I just don't think any player should cost £100m on general principle.
...but that's for another thread and will become more and more common anyway.
the tv deal inflates the market. clubs are throwing money around.
Worse source than the metro

He's just quoting the Italian press.
English clubs are, everyone else is civil. Juve being the exception becuase they are using our money. Unless someone bought sanchez from barca for 60 million that year i dont see how they could have got much higher for him. Madrid never had the funds after what they spent. and the TV deal was 2/3 years away
All true, but in 2-3 years when the first £200 million player is signed people will probably say that Juventus should have held out for at least £150 million for Pogba.
£70 odd million for Suarez a few years back was good business, it only now looks cheap when it's compared with today's inflated market.
This is more epic than when Ronaldo was spotted in Tesco on Pendleton way.
Neymar to United confirmed!
Must have been researching via the Caf
Barca have government money. they have endless supply.
Blimey, this saga has gone on longer than I thought...
Sounds good to me buddy!
Chop chop Woody! Get the deal done! What's £200 million amongst friends?
Haha, cheers pal. Bring it on today.
If they did they would have been able to afford Pogba, especially since they were willing to offer up to 80m Euros to sign Gomes and Gameiro. Extra 40m is nothing if they had "endless" supply of money.
By the time we get finished with this, we'll have to take into account inflation of the pound.
