I think Benrahma is going to eventually be at a top 4 club. Excellent player in my opinion but I’m basing that on the odd game I see him. How good is he really?
I’d take that bet if it was 50M.
I reckon If he goes it will be in-between 50-60M
I believe that would still put him in the top 30 or so of the most expensive transfers of all time and also the second highest English transfer of all time.
I heard this as well but have they relative to the general spend in the Premier League? Plus they probably have to pay over the odds on wages I bet to persuade players to join them. I mean what top player wants to play for Bournemouth?
I’d never call you a bad fan mate because I don’t even consider you as a fan
I actually understand where you are coming from though. But sometimes you have to have a bit of perspective.
I can’t believe Bournemouth managed 5 years in top flight finishing as high as 9th! Pretty incredible achievement for such a small club. Credit to Eddie Howe.
Might have a read back on the thread tomorrow to see who thought he would come good and who wrote him off. Always interesting to see different views on a player.
For the record. I always said he was going to come good
Would love to see him stay but still think he’s crazy if he does. Get big money for him and reinvest every penny. If he does decide to stay even better!
Smiths earned another season in my eyes. At one stage after the Man U game it looked like we wernt improving but the fact we went unbeaten in 4 and stayed up shows lessons are being learnt. Above that the contrast between pre lockdown and post lockdown defensively shows how much work is being down to improve us and it’s actually working.
He has my support.
