I bet that's the exact sum we wanna pay up front, with the rest in progressively larger installments over the course of the players' life.

I think he's possibly an exception to the rule. He is fed information and isn't making things up - unlike most - but whether what he's told is true or spin is of course another matter.

Haha true. A least he's not making shi1 up. Just being paid to state what we already know.

This is a fair point, but... there's surely more chance of Dybala being a success than Traore. Kessie than say someone on the bench in Serie A, Lazzari over Emerson/Doherty etc.
IMO we have to start reducing the risks of our transfers, still take some punts but going for one or two proven players seems the only way to improve our team imo.

Even just Eriksen, Lamela, Berbatov, Modric level (at the time we signed them) would surely improve our first team.
I'm going to be annoyed if we don't make a serious bid for Dybala, who I think would be perfect for us.
Would prob take a lower wage than Ndombele!
thats not really the case though. Dybala is far from a sure thing in this league. He could absolutely fail to settle, continue with the injuries his had which hastens his decline, fall out with Conte. Or simply not be physically up to the intensity of the prem.
But it’s not like we don’t do that, Ndombele and Lo celso, we’re players that have preformed with tremendous upsides that we signed for big money… look at them now

Problem is buying players that aren't a good fit for our system.
Carefully optimistic about some of the under the radar links to players that aren't that high profile or expensive as long as it's someone Conte sees as an excellent fit.
Much of our success was built on players in the £10-20m range, some even cheaper than that.
Thinking that Doherty would adjust well to a defensive right back role under Mourinho was a mistake. But that would have been just as much a mistake if we had signed a similar player for twice the money.

Jonathan Barnett is bigger i beleive (not just cause he's fat). Forbes named him number 1.

He's the Don Corleone of the modern game. Success or failure is determined by your offerings and services to him.

Had to resort to google to get that one. Very good. There is always something to learn in life and always something to be learnt from GG.

Based on our recent track record, I would be stunned if we got this deal over the line, I would be impressed but I just do not see it happening
Bale, romero, ndombele, lo celso were not small signings going back the last couple of summers. Jan is tougher, we try to do deals in the summer. But i wouldn't rule it out.

Rumours doing the rounds we are close. Valuations just £4m apart....this is Levy, might as well be £40m apart. Going to Lowball again and just miss out
