Because you've scouted him every time he steps foot on the pitch. You even watch him at practices 
And Real Madrid isn't really known for selling bench players for a lot of money. Look how much Robben and Sneijder got sold for.
that's great. props to atletico
It makes me mad to see people defend this deal.
i couldn't agree more with @Dule90

I don't disagree over this one and I assume that in your example as a starting company it is financing the initial purchase by issuing shares, otherwise yearly expenses would be higher and leverage financing is obligatory, which in the end would mean significant outflows of cash every year. 
That's the thing. Prerequisite for any club to participate in European competitions is at most -45m Euros of loss spread over the last 3 seasons IIRC. From this perspective accounting profit is important, as fines, like we've seen recently that the likes of City or PSG received, are hefty ones. That would certainly cause significant cash outflow, which repercussions in our case could be catastrophic.
But all this is probably more appropriate for the Financial thread.

Anyone else have a feeling that only Morata is coming (not Iturbe) and is going to start on the wing, rather than be Llorente's bench boy?
I can't see Marotta willing to pay 20M for a kid who has yet to prove himself and on his last year of his contract. He's never done anything like this before. This is so unlike him. Morata can't be coming as a bench player.

The meltdown 
Don't think so, as I've said a few pages further back, I haven't really seen Morata that much apart from the CL final (where he was mediocre), some U21 games last year (where he absolutely bossed), and perhaps one or two La Liga cameos.
Consequently, I don't really feel comfortable judging him with this very limited knowledge of his, and mostly rely on reports of others judging him, which basically range from "shit overpriced bench material only popular because he plays for Real", to "best young striker out there".
Therefore, it's dominantly a question of who of these commentators I trust most, and as Conte seems to be a great fan of Morata, I'm willing to give the player the benefit of the doubt for now, and am rather optimistic about his abilities. I also like to think that Ancelotti trusting him to play him in the CL final, the most important club fixture there is, at a point where they were trailing the game, has to mean something.
It is as result not the price tag that is worrying me in this deal, 20 million for a striker with his age and alleged potential is only fair in this day and age, but, as others have already mentioned more than enough, the buy back clause. I still think it's the reactions in these thread are a little bit hysterical in that regard though, and we should at least wait for the official details to be released, if there's an option for us to counter the clause, or for Morata to refuse going back.
And should he not totally explode in a complete monster, I'm sceptical about Madrids will to bring him back anyways.
