Mutu was pretty terrible at Chelsea. 20 million or something for 5 goals, a lot of cocaine, and a ten year long lawsuit

Park Chu Young cost a not insignificant amount of money and was such a shithouse that he never got a sniff at the first team in 3 years.

EHD is a major oval office, if you weren’t around for his halcyon days you missed -spitting on everyone including an 11 year old -mocking a man with a broken leg to his face -racially abusing a ballboy -gets intentionally sent off for Bolton so he can play for Senegal

It didn’t make sense for him to have to pay the transfer fee in the first place, and even if he had to pay it, it should have been a tiny fraction of what he cost. That whole saga was bizarre.

Lol I just read his Wikipedia article. Can't believe he got caught doping again six years after getting banned for it at Chelsea. What a guy.

Yeah, Chelsea should’ve definitely just cancelled the contract. Having to pay back all that money couldn’t have helped his personal issues at all.

Didn't he just go back to Romania and not pay it because there was no way to make him?

Brony Car posted:Bebe was a Jorge Mendes client, wasn't he? As objectionable as it is, I can see the reasoning for giving Mendes a sweetener since that guy usually represents some good, high tier players. Yeah but I'm pretty sure by that point he'd made absolute bank on the likes of Ronaldo and Nani, possibly also Anderson?

Nobody knows for sure but it seems possible that the nepotism surrounding Fekir's transfer to Real Betis might have contributed to the last-minute collapse of his Liverpool transfer. At some point before that his family took over representing him and have been making those kinds of demands, so it's not impossible. The whole thing was just weird.

Theres definitely something strange going on. Its not like Fekir's quality was in doubt a year ago, but the way in which the move collapsed and the fact that hes gone from a top 3 French side to a mid-table Spanish one for a third of the money that Liverpool offered suggests that something isn't being said about him.

Tbh I’m frankly baffled Perez went for 30m then we dropped 40m on a guy who is just a little younger but completely unproven in the PL and hasn’t exactly blown up the bundesliga I expect some Steve Bruce signings soon, sign up Carroll, Sturridge, Welbeck and maybe Ings and you’ve surely got at least 1 passable striker fit at a time?

On the one hand it seems really weird for Newcastle to have gone all in on this guy, but on the other it also seemed very important to Newcastle fans that they break their transfer record, so I guess they had to do it with someone.

They broke it in January with Almiron. Prior to that it was Michael Owen in 2005 which is hilarious though.

Still I agree with other posters, it feels like Newcastle probably could have got someone with a good PL track record in for that money. All very odd.
