Fellaini

basically rules out any team in the prem

Only based on your rather lop sided view of their current squads & your ability to mind read their managers.

Are you seriously trying to tell me that United wouldn't be interested? & that if they were, that City & Chelsea wouldn't then pipe up? Behave, there'll be plenty of takers when the sad day arrives, you're way off the mark here.
 

and on that note if yaya toure is worth 24m how the **** is fellaini worth 30m

Because we need him more than Barcelona needed Toure and the contract situations different?

We can play the comparison game all day if you want, Henderson cost 20 million, Lescott 24, Witsel 31, Robinho 32, Carroll 35. Is Fellaini not in that ballpark?
 
fellaini is EITHER a DM or plays behind the striker he isnt box to box.
a box to box type player is someone like yaya toure who can startt fro defending a corner and then have the pace and acceleration to get forward and start and finish attacks, this is not in fellainis game

fellaini plays as either one or the other.

and on that note if yaya toure is worth 24m how the **** is fellaini worth 30m

Henderson was bought for £20 million mate, clubs pay over the odds it happens and sometimes clubs get a bargain. We will get £30 million or thereabouts for Fellaini
 
no one is saying he isnt.
if fellaini went to chelsea it would to play as a DM, and if your after a defensive midfielder for 30m you can have the pick of any in the world, box to box or a creative midfielder like arteta was. for the type of DM fellaini is you wouldnt pay out 30m thats all im saying

He would play DM at Chelsea, but if they needed a goal they could push him further forward and he would offer a completely different element to their attack. He could turn draws into wins.

Toure was out of favour at Barca, because Guardiola preferred Busquets. It's safe to say that Toure is worth more now than he was then.

Incidentally, Busquets, a defensive midfielder, has a release-clause in his contract of 150 million euros.
 

Chelsea paid £16.8m for Makelele in 2003. Arguably and in my book the best defensive midfielder of the last 10 years. Pretty much ten years on, and inflation in football means £25m for a DM wouldn't be unrealistic, especially as its the only position they are lacking in. John Obi Mikel is the weak link in their team.

what inflation, mascherano moved to barca for 18m and he was rated as one of the best Dms at that time, yaya toure moved for 24m and he was rated as one of the best box to box midfielders at that time. so where has 30m to play fellaini as a Dm come from.

again it was liverpool that wanted him, henderson didnt come out 12 months before and say he wants to play for liverpool.

this is completely different the player has come out and says he wants to leave, when not ONE team has ever made a bid for him,

1) How do you know no team has bid and 2) He hasn't said that all. He was asked if he wanted to play CL and he said yes with either everton or someone else. Then he was asked if he would consider leaving and he said he was happy at everton for the time being

big bids for players usually come out, it would be unlikely that if a team bid big money for a player and we heard nothing about it.
also fellainis dad would of probably come out and gone off on one, he did it when the daily mail linked chelsea with fellaini when ancelotti was in charge.

What inflation?

Downing £18m
Fletcher £14m
Rhodes £8m.

Show me proof that this calibre of player was going for that rate 10 years ago. Inflation is happening everywhere, don't pretend it isn't just to fit your agenda.

Your logic here is unfathomable.

If the player had a desire to play for 1 specific side & that side knew that he was only going to sign for them, then the owning clubs position weakens e.g. Fabregas - Barca.

Fellaini has just said that he wants to play for a club in the CL, so there's plenty of options in that pool & many clubs will be interested as & when he hits the market, this will force his price up. It's basic stuff this lad ffs.

not really playing in the Cl cuts it down considerably in the league thats 4 clubs in the premier league who might not even want him.
again barca were after fabregas for 2 years completely different scenario.
