      Mostly oil money. Been ruining football for years. People with no history of actual football and many with little to no understanding of the game itself are coming in and taking over in a sense. And FIFA haven't contested too much to it, a lot of money flowing under the table to them as well I'd imagine.

      Think of the World Cup in Qatar, how the f*ck did that happen? Not only the fact that there's literally no history or even present of football there, but the players are going to be performing in 120 degree conditions. It's absurd.

      Anyways, back on topic, the market inflation that's happening is insane. David Luiz went for almost as much as Suarez did - about double (if not more) what Luiz would actually be worth in a regular market 3-4 years ago even. Imagine that?

      The teams that can't keep up with that spending (us included) are going to be weeded out very quickly in this market.

      We're smarter than them though
      £50M quid on Luiz is laughable. As Hansen said "I don't know what he is but he ain't a footballer"

      Agree he is one of the most overrated footballers I have ever seen.

      Surprised so many don't rate Di Maria.

      I think he's a very good player but never thought he would end up here.

      Di Maria is a world class player. It would be great to have him here. He was the best player on the pitch during the UCL final, has been doing a great tactical work for Ancelotti.

      He will end up at PSG.

      Never rated him either. Whenever I've seen him play he's been hugely underwhelming. Has skill but doesn't appear to me to be a very smart footballer. I hope these links are just speculation.

      He was MOTM in a UCL final, so I guess you don't watch the UCL to say that? :D

      I'd have him here any day. Seems to be very unlikely though.

      I have never rated him also his finishing is woeful and I thought he was very lucky to get mon in the UCL, I also think the " assist figure " is also misleading as lump the ball in the box at Real with the team on the back foot ( which the usually are ) and the likes of Ronaldo Bale and Benzama will finish them. Ozil had an even bigger assist ratio when he was there. But it's all about opinions.

      Can't see him choosing to come here, nor can I see a place for him in our team.

      As much as that made me chuckle he must find a lot of nuts..

      The guys got like 90 assists in 4 seasons at Madrid.. That's not just finding them but giving them his mates and making sure they aren't hungry


      He's a good player.. Not the profile we are looking at I'd guess

      He may be an Angel but he's not an LFC Angel , this rumour needs to disappear, it'd be wasting money buying this lightweight.
