https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57898497 So... even in the midst of what is going on, this sort of price is paid fora Brighton defender! He might be good, but that good?
Not if he does well for them which would put his price up in coming years....And he's only 23.....not desperate IMO......and I hate Arsenal!!
So Varane world cup winner, champions league winner, world club championship winner, la liga title winner and copa winner = 35mil. White ????? = 50mil. Seriously???
No idea how good he is as I don’t follow the PL, but that kind of money in these times is obscene and shows why a review is needed, whether it will have enough teeth to achieve the changes needed is another issue though.
Sorry expert Jiffie, he who knows all the answers and his opinion is the only one that's right.....we shall see if he turns out to be a good buy or not..
Don't be so childish, it's a fair comparison on value for money, somebody with a world renown reputation and 33% cheaper also if you look at the thread my opinion is the opinion of every other poster so far, yet again all on your own.
Reminds me of the story of the trooping of the colour and a really proud mother says very loudly "look at my son, he's the only one in step".
Don't really see the argument, he had 3 years left on his contract and that's what Brighton valued him at, Arsenal was willing to pay it as they feel he will add strength to their side.....no big deal.. I personally think the majority of transfers nowadays are obscene...but that's how it is..
Fair enough, but my comparison reference value for money of Varane was a fair comment and not requiring of the abuse.
Not necessarily the wrong step if he knew what he was doing. Not his fault the rest followed like sheep ....
I'm really impressed by White. Yes to an extent Arsenal are buying potential, but I think this is good move for White and Arsenal
