Seems less of a gamble than 14 million on a Dutch league player and if we go down he would be very useful

12m for a League one player :laugh:

Who are these jokers.

Indeed.

Strategy:

Seen a rumour on twitter from a fairly credible source.
Guess figures
Use the prefix 'Breaking' or 'Developing'

Wait until it's corroborated ("right again") or denied (delete tweet)

Rinse + repeat x 1,000 per window.

Yep. I'd agree with that. I genuinely have no idea what a normal value is anymore. No idea what calibre of player £20m gets now.

Andre Ayew, it looks like.

But more to the point, it just shows how these premier league riches are a bit of an empty vessel. Sure, you get £10's of millions thrown at you, but then you just throw them away again in the hope of staying up and getting the £10's of millions again. And everyone else does the same, but three still go down regardless, and find themselves not much better off then when they started.
