Its Porto we're talking about.If Udinese can rip us apart for mediocre players, imagine what Porto could do with the quality of players at their disposal.

Dint know that.In any case 15m for a RB would be too expensive and a luxury signing for us considering Lichtsteiner just renewed.
Although we could do with a quality LB if we dont intend to Asamoah there.
But these are not priority signings anyway,atleast for me.

yeah. we would solve both fullbacks for the next 8 years atleast. maybe if only few teams would be interested we could get them for a lower fee
so we are looking at two fbs who, according to you, are worth 15m with only 1 year left on their contract and hope that not many other teams are interested in them? ok ^^

agree. if we can get both for around 25-30M im definitely for it

im not saying theyre worth 15M neither im saying that i think theyre worth 15M. im saying that if we can get them for that money, im for it.

but the point here is, they would be good signings for that kind of money. 15M for a player with excellent potential who is still young and could play at a high level for a long time is really not much. what i also said is if other top teams (in some weird scenario) wouldnt be interested (maybe going for other players or are already covered well at fullbacks) that could possibly lower their price even more.

quite some hair-splitting going on there... when you say it would be fine to get both for up to 30m that kinda implies that you think that they are worth it ;).

not necessarily. if i say it would be great if we get Firmino for 20M doesent mean i think hes worth that. with his current form he is worth 40M imo. i didnt watch enough of the two (except for 3-4 CL matches) to have a real opinion about their worth.

weird but not impossible. we'll know more in the 2nd half of the season when rumors about who is interested start popping up.

same thing again: if a player is worth 40m it kinda implies it´s worth getting him for 20m :p.
doesn´t firminho have a 25m release clause? (i´m aware it was only an example).

no to lavezzi, i guess.

in the summer i would rather us sign just one class player and that be the mercato rather than 5 average ones.

i get the need for depth and we got it this season with morata and pereyra, but there is no excuse in the summer for not going straight for quality.

Pereyrya and Morata combined cost us 35 million. why cant we pay 40 or 45 million for one player of cavani quality?
