Thiago Silva. Ibra. Jags. Baines. Fernandinho. Milner. David Silva. Moutinho. Giroud. Vardy.

Off the top of my head (aka a quick google search).


If you think its normal to still be paying a player more than £100,000 for a player well past he's 34th birthday then fair enough ;)
 
Napoli signed a 24 year old Allan for 7m and had 4 and a half really good seasons from him. He has now fallen out of favour been accused of walking in training yet we want to play £30m for him. Not only that but we want to give him a lengthy contract.

Haven't we learnt the lessons of the likes of Walcott.

Why aren't we looking to sign a 24 year old top class talent who we can sign for a reasonable fee and then sell on at a profit. We are the gift that keeps on giving.

Signing players approaching their 30's who have never played in the Premier League is a mugs game. If it goes badly we are left with another player on a long term contract that we cannot shift.

Whats your opinion on Liverpool after 29 yr old Thiago mate?

Because every club that you buy off knows that all Prem clubs have far more money , and try to rinse you appropriately
