and he was more impressive than Pogba in the Euros and Sherwood beat Poch 3 times, wtf does that matter. Were they directly up against each other? If we get the player who showed so well at the Euros then he's a great signing.And Bentaleb owned him when we beat them 4-0 twice
If none of us really know, how is it a given? He's had issues of inconsistency and work ethic throughout his career.
Sadly I agree with Greg. We lost our composure and got desperate. Mitchell announcing his departure midway through the transfer window suggests more af work than meets the eye

Erm. 30M. Hmm. Yes. Gah. Why.
Is it a club record then?
Let's say we'll leave it in the hands of our Poch and see the end result and then judge. I'm certain that he will be v good with the players we have around him.He's a very inconsistent player. I've very surprised by this constant he has great at the EUROs chat, he wasn't and actually gave the ball away for the goal that cost them. He caught the eye with some excellent runs, taking players on and out of the game but what did he produce? Zero assists and zero goals.
I think he is a decent addition as on his day he can be a very effective player. His touch and end product will infuriate you but he can offer great pace and acceleration.
He's improved your squad but I suspect will mainly be used from the bench and in the cups.
We've robbed you blind for £30m but that's how the market is now.
Was my first thought too!Was he saying that to you?
At least you're consistent!@StephenH said
"There is no way Levy would ever pay anywhere near £25m for a championship player that cost the selling club bugger all."
What a numpty!
Depends, Lamela was also £30m, with add ons and the possibility of selling before all the fee is paid it's hard to tell but the bare £30m equals our record.

In the same way as your "it's a BIG if" mine is a "MAYBE".
As for issues throughout his career, 192 appearances for Toulouse and 118 for Saudi Sportswashing Machine doesn't sound like the sort of player they were at any time eager to get rid of, so he couldn't have been that bad.
Wijnauldum caught my eye in that video lolSome good bits
We've spent £67m on four players, so if we get two £30m players out of it, we've done alright.Hmmm, jury is out on this one. We bought 5 players, so law of averages says only 2 or 3 will be a success. Let's hope we get 2 or 3 good ones out of them.
