Pogba at 89 million or Stones at 48 million

Baines is only £5.5 now after his price dropped from £7.5 at one point as he missed a lot of the season due t injuries.

Good price that as he will be a certain starter and I would expect them to at least be a little more solid under Koeman.

Stones for me will be a mistake, can't see him getting rid of those errors in his game. You always feel like when he has the ball You can't quite relax... Evansitis I'd call it.

Tbf, i think Smalling a couple of years ago was like that, under LVG he has really established himself as a top drawer defender, always think its unfair on CBs being judged in their early 20s.

So £47.5m buys you the 59th ranked tackling defender last season. No wonder Pogba cost so much.

They laugh at our signings but they've spent over 150 million on stones, sterling, otamendi and mangala.

Absolutely terrible value for money there.

Kante for only £30 million is better value than both put together

To be fair I've not seen City fans laughing at the fee, more clubs like Spurs and Liverpool.

Both of whome cannot afford to do that, and if they could I'm sure they would eventually blow the bank for a top player.

Spurs seem the most on edge recently, maybe that they only actually finished 4 points ahead of ourselves and City, and haven't improved much at all while we are both filling the gaps in our team whatever the costs.

Getting in their "enjoy Thursday's" jibes while they can for a year.

Firstly, it is way too premature to say any of the first three are terrible value for money, particularly given the age of the first two.

Secondly, I'm not sure any City fan has laughed at the value of Pogba

Are these genuine prices

Football

Stones going for almost 50m makes 100m Pogba look like a bargain.
At least Pogba is a world class talent and has played at the highest level.

Don't think pogba is world class yet. Stones definately isn't.
