Considering DL barely played last season, selling him at all is already an accomplishment. I don’t see why people are shocked by the fee.
I personally believe the likelihood that the one bad year of his career and us underselling when we want/need a dominant midfielder might come back to haunt us is closer to 50/50 than people realize.

Time will tell.

I wouldn't rule that out, but honestly that's how it feels with everything we do. Nothing is certain, from Comolli to Tudor to the transfers. Then I think, how bad can it really get? Hopefully not worse than last season or the one before.

As for Luiz, no doubt he's a good player, but it was never going to work here. Mentally, he'd already checked out. Best for both sides to move on with as little damage as possible.

He's 100% returning to form but with us he's Arthur so what do you do

Had high expectations of him but was a huge letdown, his quality was palpable but feels like he never got going here for whatever reasons so all in all good riddance i think it’s a fair deal, as long as it’s an obligation to buy and not option we’re good i guess.
