He's not even England's number one. Huge potential but not worth that sort of price. If he's worth that how much would Manuel Neuer be worth if he was English?

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,530 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 In the current market I don't think that's too bad tbh, will probably be their number 1 for the next decade. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Will be interesting to see how he performs with a better defence in front of him. He made some good saves last season but was still part of a defence that was relegated with games to spare. Typical overhype is following him because he's home-grown.

Blueshoff 11,799 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 The fee includes add ons, apparently it's initially 18m which is still a lot but if they keep him for 10 years (he's only 23) and he performs as expected then it will be a reasonable fee.

Who IMHO just isn't a top class keeper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he's a walking injury at Stoke and rarely gets mentioned these days. Think it's hard to judge how good Pickford is at the moment given how poor Sunderland were last season. As already mentioned if he's a mainstay in their team for 10+ years £30m may turn out to be a bargain. And if he's exceptional Man Utd or City will pay double that for him.

esquire8 42,465 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 £3m a season if he performs over 10 seasons. For an EPL market that's a bargain. Will be put into more perspective once De Gea is sold for £70m and Donnaruma moves to Juve for the same amount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffbear 4,096 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I heard man Utd are giving Morata £480k a week next season ... This madness has to stop . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wully 47,331 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 When Everton signed Steve Simonsen for 3.3m all those years ago that made him the most expensive goalkeeper in British history. Better quality back then Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf to Butland it's been one big injury that's kept him out for so long and he was looking brilliant before that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B1872 20,700 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Would love if Sky pulled out of the EPL tbh! Cunts would probably get a bail out from the Government right enough! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverAndEver 71,469 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Not a lot wrong with that imo. If you're looking at a rumoured price to complain about, look at Morata 70 million Euros? Ridiculous, cunt's average. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson1314 5 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 On Talksport today media guy says Sky and BT are struggling for new customers and that kodi streaming is mainly responsible. Im never paying them £50 for sky sports to support inflated wages. They could easily pay everyone less and lower subscription charges across the board.

Think it's a bit more than that initially but yeah principle remains the same , prices are crazy though but it's the market . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky even think about paying less to the Premier League then it's all over for them. BT don't care about subscription prices or Kodi as much as their Broadband is what makes them the big bucks. Once BT outbid Sky for the TV rights then it's adious Sky. It's the companies that use Broadband that will get more powerful, satellite TV will soon be extinct.
