€20m ... still too much.

 

[JoeT]

It won't happen...too much money required.

 

[Locotoro]

Well, he should be used to the system having played under Bielsa

 

[bigspurs]

Not exactly a thorough article. Don't know much about this kid, but he definitely has a moody boat!

Fast left footer with very good close control.. this says his passing isn't the best.

Looks like a physically stronger Lamela....with similar skills set.

Conversation probably went like this:

Vincent Labrune; Mr Levy, you would like to buy Thauvin?

Daniel levy; Yes (oui/wee)

Vincent Labrune; We want €20 million, half up front then €5 million a year for two years.

Daniel Levy; No (non), €3 million spread over six seasons fixed at the current euro rate.

Vincent Labrune; Mr Levy, be reasonable.

Daniel Levy; No (non).

On to the next target.

If we spend £20m on another unproven, young player then frankly we deserve everything we get.
For that money Id want to know what I was getting ie PL experience.
Too pricey for youngster and not enough for world class.
Could be awesome, who knows but na.
Not for me.

Wonder if we could work Kabould, Capoue and Stambouli into the deal. Wishful thinking I know, but would be brilliant to do some deals this way, and killing two birds with one stone, so to speak.

Surely that makes 4 birds doesnt it?

Looking at those video clips, and the quality of the opposition was he playing for Woking at the time?
