I don’t want to keep going on about Carrasco in this thread, not least because it’s never going to happen, but do you honestly see us signing a player for £70m, £80m, £90m on wages that would no doubt be in line with the fee. You’d probably be looking at between £150k and £250k a week. Come on, that alone is completely unrealistic. That’s before you even factor in all the bigger and richer clubs that are also no doubt gonna be all over him. In a world where Van Dijk is going for £75m, we are not getting Yannick Carrasco. Chelsea F.C. alone means we are not signing Carrasco. The chance of us signing him was when Atlético did.
Not gonna get into it again cos I simply can't be bothered and equally this isn't the Carrasco thread but I can't even begin to explain how much it annoys me when I see the words "never gonna happen" in any player thread.
Instead I will respectfully disagree.
