Good price but if we paying them anywhere near the cash amount that's been thrown around it seems we're not getting a lot for our 2 young players

He is the kind of CM that has the potential to genuinely elevate the level of our midfield, welcome and good luck. :tup:

How much did you expect to get for them - Barrenchea wasnt exactly playing for Real Madrid while Illing is hype but didnt do much with the hype. 25M for both isnt on the high side but its not like getting robbed. 25M + 2 players that would never really have the opportunity for a guy you all claim to be the next coming of our CM messiah - Sounds like a good deal actually.

It seems we’re finally looking to improve our mid after all those years.

The fact he will be coached by someone who speaks his own language gives me relief Motta will be able to get his message across.

I miss the times when we used to dominate the midfield. Really hoping he does well. :xfingers:

I don't think this means much for modern midfielders. Locatelli is 186cm of turd.

I think being as handy as he is on set pieces is worth 10m on its own. The likes of Bremer and Gatti in particular would benefit from that.
