I don't see how 67m for a keeper can be justified

I think part of it is Roma rinsing them as a) they're clearly in dire need of a good keeper and b) as it turned out they got Salah for an absolute steal from them.

Harry Forrester has signed a two-year deal with Iranian side Tractor Sazi, who are managed by John Toshack.

Leicester look like they're signing Danny Ward from Liverpool for £12m! Who the f*** is Danny Ward and how is he worth £12m?!

Presumably that means Leicester are selling Schmeichel, possibly to Chelsea if Courtois leaves as it's unlikely they'd pay that much for a reserve keeper.

Juventus sold $60m worth of Ronaldo shirts within 24 hours of him officially signing. Can’t imagine they’ll see all of that but it’s still bloody impressive.

Ward was pretty good for Huddersfield in the Championship and still quite young for a GK.

£12m is a fairly hefty price tag but this marketplace is really f***ed up so it could be a long term bargain.

Fabinho has said that his next job is to convince Mbappe to move to Anfield <laugh>

Yeah, I think that there are 2 clubs in the world that could afford Mbappe, neither of which are called Liverpool.

I was a big supporter until they appointed Toshack. Now I'm an ex-Tractor fan.

Everton signing Richarlison for £50m <erk>

What hope have we got when even the average players are going for that much? He had like 6 good games last season.

Mental. He had about 1/3 of a very good season then was Joselu level of s***.

5 goals in 38 games. How mental do you have to be to spend 50mill for 5 goals a season?

There's a raft of problems with North American sports, but at least their owners/leagues aren't so stupid as to race each other into debt like that Everton owner. You'd think football club owners would have it in their best interest to keep transfer fees (and subsequently agent fees and salaries) as low as possible, but instead they're all (well, almost everyone...) insane.

£22m is more than fair.

Stoke have signed McClean from WBA, if ever a club and player were made for each other...
