Why are Portugese players so expensive? €100m plus for a 19-year-old named Felix. Florentina Luis, €60m, has only played 4 games.
Manchester City are considering making an offer for Benfica's 19-year-old Portuguese defensive midfielder Florentino Luis. (Guardian)

Unless we are forced to sell Mane or Salah, I don't think we'll be spending huge amounts
€120m for a 19-year-old from a weak league, really?
Rumours salah could be off
If we win the league and European Cup he can go for £200m
Give up on the league, it will hurt much less when we do come second
We're a point behind and there's 9 left to play for.
Paradoxically, it's both too late and too early to "give up"
Behave
Good. I just hope that's not a smokescreen.
Also reported in the same article we are unlikely to spend big, but who knows. Likely to need;
Back up GK
CB - Lovern will leave
AM - Shaq and lallana will leave.
CF - Studge will go.
Players coming back to help fill those roles are Brewster and Ox.
Love us to sign De Ligt but won't happen.

A left back maybe?
Lovren should get us £25-£30m. Lallana £15m. £30m for Shaq. He has 6 goals and 2 assists this season. Ryan Kent £12m. Grujic £30m. Ings £25m. Clyne £25m. Divock £20m. If we sell those players we should get around £200m and get 4 very good players to add squad depth and strength.
I wonder how far off Bobby Duncan is? Seems to be the real deal.
Ye, him and Glatzl scoring a million goals between them has been impressive.
Apparently the management at the club are worried about Duncan's attitude. Heard that a while ago, so maybe he's sorted himself out now.
Bobby Duncan doesn't look all that great to me...
The problem is the standard we're at now, the bar is just so high for these kids. The only one I've seen who looks truly special is the Dutch guy, Hoever.
In terms of signings, I'd like us to get Brandt, because we need more numbers in AM and he's available cheap.
Sessegnon is apparently available for £40m so that's a no brainer too.
It doesn't sound like we'll spend much more than that, unfortunately. I'd strike while the iron's hot, personally. Go and sign De Ligt and Jovic, or maybe Joao Felix.
That's the level we should be aspiring to.

Got fed up of him standing on wheelie bins trying to sneak a peek at Melwood
I've never seen him play.. however didn't he break every record upto a certain age? Also only English player to score a hat trick against Brazil?
Physically looks like he needs another year to me. Did well last night. Let him stick with that group a bit longer.
I thought it was Brewster who scored the hat trick?
He looks very very good, definitely first team potential. And to me looks much classier than Duncan
Don't think Sessegnon should be worth that much
