Andrea Belotti

Anyone got a YouTube to his goals this year?

Is he pacey and small and tricky, or a big lump that hangs about in the box and knows where the net is?

Preferably a video with multiple fast cuts and loud early naughties dance music over the top, I want to have to work to find out how good he is.

"but that still can not be excused for charging this extortionate amount"


Why not? Why should they be forced to sell a player they don't want to lose for a fee that suits the club that wants to sign him?

Becuase it could also come back to haunt them when they try to haggle over prices for their targets. Yes, it's a chain reaction and you reap what you sow but they all know that he isn't worth this crazy fee.

Apparently Torino thinks he's the shiznit. He may be good, but not good enough to catch my attention yet.

Fantastic talent, do you know he went permanently blind at age 12, makes it all the more remarkable.

No, i did not know that. That is hardwork and dedication to get back on his feet and made it happen.

However, if you had to compare him against someone like Morata (who i'm not keen on especially partly because of the stupid fee, but isn't thee worst possible signing) how does he compare?

From the little (very little) I have seen on him;

I think he is on the same level as Diego Costa.

Definitely a good player. Not even close to being worth £87m or whatever the figure is.

Think of a cross between Christian Veiri and Del Piero and then think of the complete opposite because he's nothing like that.

When on form Costa is a great player - just despise his sportsmanship characteristics. But even Costa on form isn't worth £87 million.

Now with Belotti, if he's price tag was reduced to a more realistic range of £35 - 50 million, would you take up the offer based on what you know of him?

Halfway through reading that and thinking to myself we may have unearthed a rough diamond here only to be let down
