Like Zlatan, Pirlo and Lampard, for example, he will continue to deliver well into his 30s. He has played in 30 or more league games every year since 2006/7 so in spite of the efforts of the likes of McCarthy, he clearly looks after himself very well

ExWHUemployee seems to be suggesting Madrid have indeed bid for Payet this evening.

£60m

PrestonHammer

I just don't see Madrid paying 60 million for him.

If true, this is one big decision to make for both the club and the player. I am pretty sure that would be the highest transfer fee ever paid for a 29 year old.

This is in addition to the 120 Million Euros deal they are putting together to sign Pogba!

I don't believe this.

He is taking out of his hat.

IronHerb

And Morata by all accounts.

Hamstew

Where has Ex said that? ;ok

In his column here, he says it's not true.

Rumour One: We have accepted a £50m-£60m bid for Payet from Madrid? (Or that his agent has met with Madrid officials)

This is not true.

From the ExWHUemployee update this evening: -

This is not true.

Lukerz

My fault. Misread a tweet of his.

Bazshuayi

Well that just averted about 200 posts ;nonono

No. There was a tweet earlier mentioning the £60m bid which ExWHU said he would look into and later posted that it was false. ;ok

Lukerz

Yeah. Somebody tweeted asking whether he could confirm the £60m bid for Payet and he replied "I will".

I took that to mean that there has been a bid and that he will confirm it in detail in his transfer roundup. I think what he meant was IF there was ever a bid for Payet, he would confirm it.

Lukerz

Imagine this as a front six ;nonono

Pogba - Kroos
Bale - Payet - Ronaldo
Morata

Ravel49

Has he gone yet?

But how fed up will Ronaldo be as he slips down the pecking order?

alderz

They aren't keeping Morata though. They've only resigned him to flog him for more money. Wouldn't surprise me if he went back to Juve for more.

Ravel49

Zidane's birthday today.

Will he be getting Payet as a birthday gift.... ;hmm ;run ;cake ;footie

You'll be alright. Just don't break wind.

Mark Noble on SSN at the store opening when asked about Dimi said he has been in a lot of contact with him and hopes he'll stay but ended with "but football is football"

Pearces_Left_Foot

So Nobes has no idea basically
;lol

grey_til_I_dye

PLF

;lol

Think it's more:

Expect him to stay, but I've been in the game too long to say it's 100%

baracks_a_hammer

I think it's down to the fact that they haven't hugged in a few weeks so Nobes is possibly a bit out of the loop.

I love how frequently we're getting mentioned in the same breath as Real and Barca at the moment because of this man. It's almost every day that I see something about Payet, Bale and Ronaldo.
