Walk away.
£50m for a kid is absolutely crazy.
£40m+ and a sell clause is madness as the lad has to turn into a £80-100m player for it to be worth it and there is no guarantee of that.
I do not want another PSR charge this kid isn’t worth all that
10 requires the same amount of running, if not more. There’s a reason why we concedes so little shots under Moyes, the front 6 did plenty of work and very often gets substituted more than any other position because of the high physical demands...
Not sure about this signing. Struggling to see him sprint up and down the flanks for 90mins. He might not even last 50mins of high intensity football in a position that requires to run most under Moyes system.
I have seen this lad he looks good - that is all - if he was that great other top clubs would have snapped him up by now for 50 million ....if he is that great - he is not worth that fee - move on ....
They're welcome to him if they want to pay a world record fee for a teenager, as Southampton are requesting. The lad might be decent, but he's not the best teenager in the world.
Saints were relegated as one of the worst teams in league history and apparently had a 25mil midfielder and a 45mil winger leading the way. World has gone mad.
Some are already comparing him with Bale, absolute madness. Imagine a couple of off form games. The toxicity of the pitch fork gang will push him towards the path of Dele instead.
