Double it. add six 0's There you have it. A Premier League clubs guide to deciding the value of an overseas player. As long as they keep plucking figures out of the air on players we have barely heard of, instead of investing a fraction of the amount on homegrown talent, the the National team continues to be f3cked. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31053727
I can imagine the conversation between the managers of two French second tier clubs (or any club in Europe) "So mate, i am fancying the look of Mustapha Nobodio, your forward who has scored 6 goals in 25 appearances this year" "Sure bud, 700k ? He's only 24, but am willing to let him go. Send me a cheque" "Done, it's in the post" "Sorry mate, will rip it up when it gets here, Liverpool just offered £74million for him. laters".
Agree entirely. It's a joke. Speaking of which: http://www.thedailymash.co.uk/sport/sport-headlines/94474-2015011594474
Why? Is John Stones a worse player because he's at Everton not man utd? Is the England side worse because he's at Everton? Teams signing players from other countries doesn't make England a worse team. Greedy players signing for premier league clubs where they know they will rot in the reserves rather than signing for other clubs on less money but where they will actually play football and become better players coupled with the bent FA and overrated but actually **** england managers who pick players based on who they play for rather than how they're playing is what is killing the national side
