He's had a couple of good games, City are linked with him. Ed will be all over it.
You'd hope that at some point Ed would see what a horrendous figure of ridicule, and near hatred, he is at United right now. And would put his ego in check. But time will tell on that one

Not sure he offers much if you do get him, depending on how much money United have it seems an unnecessary risk

Joao Felix is close to signing a new contract at Benfica apparently...£200m release clause.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That should pique Ed's interest.
He's probably talking to Felix's agent and trying to get him to agree to push it up.

James or Felix?
James is hardly a risk
Felix... Nearly every club is linked to him... Must have something

James. Just seems like a proper scattergun type signing, cheap but for a good reason

i remember a few years ago when a few people on here were saying renanto sanches was the real deal and we should pay what ever (75 mil) to get him. Having never seen him play before I watched him and could not see what the hype was
a similar thing has happened with felix, I watched him but unlike felix I have bought into the hype. But for every (young) player there is always a risk they lose their way. And that is where you place your chips on the risk v reward scale. If we can get him under 75 mil it would be a steal, under 100mil might be good if he delivers but anything over is just silly

10-15 million tho... Its nothing
He's potential... If it works he's a bargain... If it doesn't we'll get close to our money back
I don't think he's being signed as a saviour or that... Why not take the gamble rather than pay 3 times the fee 2 years down the line if he develops

I just don't think the talent is there, I've been wrong plenty of times before obviously.
10-15m is enough to get a more talented player IMO
