Thats only because both of the other transfers you mention are nuts. Dier is a £30m player max and thats only because transfer fees are nuts. He isn't even in the top 20 players in his position.

That's wrong, his position relies on assists and he was 3rd in the PL in an awful side. He's very underrated, not worth 40m but certainly deserves to be at a top 7 side.
 
Walker to City reportedly almost done. £50m for Kyle Walker! I don't care what that worked out as in 2002, he's not worth it.

To be honest, I think Sig at £40m is a better buy than Keita at £70m or Dier at £50m. He's class, one of the best CAMs in the league.

Have you ever seen Keita play? That's not me saying I think he's worth £60-70m because I've not seen him enough so can't really say.

Sig's a decent player but he's not great and at 27 you're not going to get a huge amount of years out of him either - £40m is a lot. Dier's bang average so even him being fairly young, £50m is crazy money for him.

Big fish in a small pond. Everything at Swansea was built around him and all their attacks went through him. He's clearly very talented but similar to what I said about Rodriguez, he's a bit of a luxury player and ultimately not good enough (for anybody better than Everton) to justify the fact that he offers next to nothing to the team when he's not on the ball.

I've not seen Keita play, but he's never played in the Premier League and has really just ha done breakout season. £60-70m for a club like Liverpool (who I support) who do not go around spaffing £50m plus on players is an absolutely massive risk. If we get him I'd love him to be successful, and I've said a few times that as a club we should take more risks on transfers from abroad (as we did with Suarez, which worked out brilliantly), but right now I'd take Sig who's succeeded year in year out in the PL and is two years younger for 50% less.
 
£50 ******* million for Kyle Walker?? Geezus City really do like wasting money don't they?? He is nowhere worth £50 mill let alone £20mill.

But lol just lol at the crazy money that City love to waste.

Spurs did a stellar job getting that much money for Walker. Hats off to the person who got that deal lol.
 
Levy is a genius.

Lots of players haven't played in the PL - there are decent players out of the PL too ;)

As I said, I've not seen much of him to be able to comment too much but it's slightly unfair to say he's not worth something when you've not seen him play. By all accounts he was outstanding last season and as I've mentioned on here before, from the bits I've seen and what I've read about him (and his stats) he has incredible all round ability. He combines a lot of the defensive work you see somebody like Kante do with seriously good technical ability - you can watch clips of him and you'd think he was an out and out DM then you can watch highlights of another game and he plays in midfield like Lallana does. And he's 22, 5 years younger than Sig.

Anyway, according twitter, Bild are reporting that we've had a £57m bid rejected for him.

Be interesting to know of that bid was done after they told us to sod off or not. I can't see it happening unless he puts in a transfer request and makes a fuss
 
Big fan of Bonucci going to Milan. IMO nobody plays more attractive football than Napoli so I'd love for them to win Serie A but Milan back challenging is good for everybody.
