Hello Ed01, just want to pick your brain on Havertz. Is the boy really that good and worth the money being reported in the media (€100m)? Compared to Sancho who do you think will improve the team better and who will be the better buy financially?
N. B great deal by City for Ferran Torres. I think the others missed a bargain here.
Thanks for your time.
{Ed001's Note - you can't compare the money or the players, they play different roles in the team. Sancho is not a direct comparison with Havertz in any way. Havertz is an excellent player, has been outstanding this season but it is difficult to see how any player can truly be described as worth 100m in the current financial climate. However, that is the asking price and if that is the position the club see as a priority position then there are no other options I have seen that would be better than him for that role in the team.}

It’s a sellers market, I remember last year arguing with a season ticket friend of mine at palace saying zaha isn’t worth £70, he said he is worth thst to palace if he keeps them up, Bayer haven’t got to sell so they will push a price up knowing if he stays or goes it’s fine with them, also clubs will know we’ve had a nan and not spent / champions league last year and this / sold hazard / morata so will push there luck . How much is it worth to us to add a goalscorer from midfield for the next 5-10 years?
