I mean he's decent and shows some reasonable promise, but he's only played like 10 matches for us.
Young Chilwell has only played 8 games for Huddersfield Town yet there's talk of figures of £7m, £8m and £10m, for him, Mozzie.
I guess it's just an indicator of how prices in 'England' are directly related to the vast amounts of money sloshing about in the Premier League. Bournemouth's scouts and Howe obviously fancy the lad enough to use a small portion of the T.V. windfall and to be honest buying a player from Liverpool reads well.
Posters used to mewl, like whelping pups, when we signed 'British' based players because of their cost when they believed that the managers only targeted (or even signed) too many 'Brits'. We didn't of course; that was just another myth, perpetrated by half-wits who would invent lies just to beat the then managers with. Thankfully we seem to have matured from then.
Is £6m a lot when you look the whole market objectively? I don't know for sure but I tell you what... it'll come in handy at some point so it ain't to be sniffed at.
