2017/18 Summer Transfer Rumors Mk. I

I wouldn't call Chelsea the protagonists really. Not that they aren't blameless but neither is Madrid. It took a collective effort from quite a few clubs for the pricing structure of players to reach where it is now so to blame one club would be unfair.

When it comes to inflating the market, Chelsea are the protagonists dropping 50mill on Luiz, ready to offer 50+ for Sandro. Trust me there is more thought put into what we do than premier league clubs spearheaded by City, Chelsea and UTD. If there's anyone who's inflated it, it's the PL and their stupid money starting negotiations at 50mill etc

Hazard is a money wh*re if we had any interest in him he would have posed in a RM shirt trust me

Please shut up about what you don't know. We bought Luiz last summer for 32m. It was PSG who signed Luiz from us for 50m. The only time we've actually massively overpaid for a player in recent memory is Morata. We bought Torres for 50m but at the time he was one of the very best strikers in the world and was worth it. That things didn't work out for him at Chelsea doesn't change that fact.

Don't even try to put Chelsea and Madrid in the same class when it comes to paying exorbitant fees. Your history of doing this stretches back to the 90's and early 00's.

"If we were interested in Hazard".....yeah because the sudden rush of Hazard to Madrid stories only a few months ago from every outlet, including Spanish outlets close to Madrid was pure fabrication (including the last 2 summers, mind). That would almost be as silly a statement as saying you were never interested in De Gea Come on fam

Exactly. We definitely contributed to it but to try to imply we started it is quite laughable. Even before we came into the picture, United had been breaking transfer records in England for about a decade

Several clubs have complained to UEFA about Milan's spending this summer. UEFA are considering changing FFP rules to prevent this in future. pic.twitter.com/L6unqi4FIC

Can't believe Inter made several complaints as different clubs ffs

Blue Barrett I think that when you see Madrid capable of spending 180 mil for a player and yes I know it's just speculation for now, then I think if we really wanted Hazard we would have come for him. So there is a difference between being interested and making a statement like "this guy is our future and we are all in, we will pay whatever". That has never happened with hazard, but it did with the likes of CR, Kaka, etc...

Probably because we're not ultimately owned by an American hedge fund waiting patiently for Captain China and his funky coherts to run out of cash thereby stepping in and selling off your club like the vultures they are.

They're only thinking about your best interests.

More like uefa needs to get rid of ffp regulations. Hurts more than it helps. A useless set of regulations which only hold back clubs.

Would rather there be caps to wages/fees/clauses for more balance to the game.

Ok

Who are those several clubs that snitched on Milan and are they Turin based?

What a beta club

He's actually the type of midfielder we really require, would be happy with the signing.

So would you say that just because you weren't prepared to pay whatever it required and "this guy is our future" the whole deal you weren't interested in De Gea? You said it yourself some pages back, the reason everyone's moving so swift for Mbappe is because they're afraid someone else will get him. Madrid are literally the only club on the face of the planet who can tempt Hazard (or De Gea) away from their current clubs. If 18 year old Mbappe was killing it at United or Chelsea rather than Monaco, do you think Madrid would be about to spend this money on him? You know for sure it wouldn't be that easy if at all it was possible.

Jose Mourinho says some clubs are paying "too much"and are creating a "very strange and out-of-control" market.

Agreed with Mou for once tbh

Then again, hasn't he griped about United not spending after they just went in on lukaku and spent 100m+ on Pogbito?

LMAO
