Do you ever get the sense of things flying over your head?
You aren’t an owner of the club, so why one earth you would get so excited about selling a player on down the line is beyond me.
Because we're both very different individuals with different train of thoughts.
At the right price, I believe any deal can be done. Free? I'd take. No downside risk. £500m? 4x market value? I'll sell.
I may not be an owner of a club, but I know how it feels to be one on football manager. And my side gameplay style is to buy players low and sell higher to fund my main transfer budget.
You're a football fan focused on building a great team. I'm a fan who incorporates economics into football business. You want my best player? Sure. What's the market price? You pay me 12x that market rate and he's yours. I'd give him to you yesterday.
I firmly believe this should be why Lyon pulled the Nabil Feker deal. They've already got a base offer price. He could go for more after the world cup unless gets injured. It's football economics. My thinking is somewhat like the Lyon owner.
Shaqiri for £12m? Below market rate. Take first. We'll talk about details after the transaction.
