Plus €16m (£13.7m)
Total cost €18m (£15.4m)
One of his four goals was against Real Madrid.
Zaza has put his failure with us down to himself.
It's not always our fault.
Should test Spurs mettle with a £20m bid.
They would probably say £25m and not budge.
For me, we can't be spending more than around £15m on him.
Keane - £15m
Trippier - £20m
Wilshere - £25m
Batshuayi - loan
£75m happy days ;wink
Sell Nordtveit for £30m to China, net spend of £45m
And a sneaky bid for Sanchez as a left wing option
Keane is going to a bigger club than us, and I really doubt Bats will come to us either.
Trippier is in your (our) dreams.
So possibly £15m on an error prone keeper, 'cos we don't have any of those.
Although they'd all improve the squad 100%
This is the same team that has just lost 5 in a row prior to Saturday
It is demoralising to think that Spurs' two right backs are fighting it out to be better than the other and get to start for them
On the other hand when it comes to us and goalkeepers it is more of a race to the bottom where the least worst option will be given the nod.
Don't like the idea of Zabaleta that I have heard going around in his mid 30s on 80k a week. Seems like a Fonte signing short term with zero sell on value and not something that will get us in the top half.
Defoe on a free seems like an ok back up striker if we are getting another Big Striker in.
Should target Tadic, test out Southamptons resolve again as a nice selling club along side Siggurdsson if Swansea drop. Two good options to replace Payet.
Should look at a proper right back and actually spend a bit in this position...no short term stuff, make Byram compete for his spot if he isn't that good.
Think there are plenty of decent Goalkeepers we can look at to replace Adrian/Randolph. I think Hart is a good option and is attainable, Begovic also, Pickford I think could be the next Butland and worth going in for if Sunderland drop.
Hart - £15m <--- possible
Keane - £15m <--- not happening and see no point either we don't need another CB get Oxford and Burke in.
Trippier - £20m <--- no idea why this keeps coming up Spurs end of.
Wilshere - £25m <--- Wheelchair how many times do we want to shoot ourselves with injury prone players stay clear.
Batshuayi - loan <--- possible and worth a go if we can get a fee attached to sign at the end of the season clause (problem is Chelsea will be in Europe next season, they weren't this season so he actually might feature next season for Chelsea)
Big Sam gets his defenders to defend. You see that Sakho heads it, clears it, and tackles people.
Klopp (and he's not even the worst for this) wants everyone in his team to be a playmaker, and not everyone is up to it.
Klopp = Lord of the dance.
You need to give your players the job they are capable of, like our Ginge. He's a muck and bullets defender.
Or you could argue Randy waited patiently for his chance and has taken it.
Unlike others, I don't think he's been poor enough to warrant dropping.
I don't see Adrian as significantly better than Randy - think they are about equal.
Time for Adrian to come back imo.

Hope he gets to play up alongside Big Andy in a front 2 over the next few games. I've always thought the big man would be at his best with a partner.
He's had 11 Premier League appearances although three of those were less than five minutes and last Saturday was the first time he'd spent more than 45 minutes on the pitch. From the end of October until the middle of January he didn't even get on the pitch, for most of that time he wasn't even on the bench.
Perhaps if we hadn't bothered with Zaza he might have had more of a chance.
