That's an insulting offer, if true. Should be nearer £35m as it's China.That Times article said the club rejected a £26m offer from China for him.
Sell him I say, we need to make space for better player we buy in summer window.
True, a club there even bid £32m for Andy Carroll.That's an insulting offer, if true. Should be nearer £35m as it's China.
No idea how good he is but we spent 17M on him and he's barely played. We could have added that money to the Xhaka/Mustafa fee and bought a truly elite player.
It's not his fault but sell him.
Yeah that's what really is confusing. Here we have a manager who regardless of whether we have money or not has expressed a certain disdain for spending and yet here he is pissing money down the drain seemingly. Between Xhaka and Mustafi that's what 65-70 million? Add on the 17 for Lucas and that's 82-87 million. 80 million probably gets us in the right ballpark for Griezmann, Auba or Dybala with a bit left over because you're only paying one set of wages rather than 3. Or that could have been split to buy say Koulibaly and Isco. Instead we've got 2 players in Mustafi and Xhaka who have had mixed seasons and a frustrated player nearing 30 with no resale value.No idea how good he is but we spent 17M on him and he's barely played. We could have added that money to the Xhaka/Mustafa fee and bought a truly elite player.
