Oh, 100% overpay. Significant overpay.
At that price, you compare him to top midfielders throughout the world.

EPL and English players.
Not sure it’s significant overpay, I’d say in a sane transfer market he’d fetch £75 million give or take

They’ve over spent by about £30 mill imo due to English tax/inflated market, he’ll be at the club for 8 - 10 years you’d think so it’s not the worst bit of business
 
Did we overpay for Ben White? Jesus?

Did you overpay for Van Dijk?
VVD at 75m. TOTM multiple times. Best defender at Ballon Dor, FIFA awards. EPL and Champions League winner.

Rice is still 30m more if not 40m with the add ons.

White was 70m? He had a solid season.
Jesus is a steal at 45m.

Was van Dijk any of those things when he signed?

Take into account inflation, and English tax.

White was 50m. People said we overpaid for him.
 
Semantics

Is it? The question or conversation was around announced signings, I thought it was just Maddison v Havertz at this stage. Until Rice has signed, he hasn't signed.

Signings that are done have never fallen over.. EVER. Oh wait

Ziyech to PSG last season… De Gea fax machine.

Numerous examples. It's not pedantry, Jatz was commenting on confirmed signings, I responded regarding confirmed signings. Not sure why Arsenal fans are getting wound up.

Cruffy has always had that pedantic trait… burntchook is… well he’s burntchook lol.

wouldn't have spent that much, nor wanted to sign him if he was not a player he saw ability in.
You could say this about every expensive signing. Including flops.

Arteta wouldn’t have spent 70m on Pepe unless he saw something.

Arteta didn't buy Pepe.

See this is similar pedantic stuff. You know the point I am making ultimately. Ole and Maguire then.

Saying a manager sees something given a large fee is so wishy washy nothingness. Every club sees something in almost every signing they make.
