Basically doing what Barca and Real do before a sale, make it out like they wanted rid, rather than the player deciding to leave, so their fickle fans don't get butthurt. ...

I kind of get the idea that they are trying to protect clubs from themselves, but then when you see what City's ownerd have done for the local area, the women's team, youth teams etc, it is very hard to make an argument that this is somehow inherently wrong.

LiamoSail wrote: » I agree it will be less than Neymar, but I would think it'll be significantly more than what they paid given the inflation of PL fees, United's wealth and Real's likely reluctance to sell. If Keita's, VVD and Morata are being discussed in the €70m bracket, surely Bale will be €120m+ sort of territory

He is just a modern footballer who wants to go on and do something else. He didn't cause any headaches by the looks of things either. He trained and played all through this process.
