Looks like 40-year old father with his 20-year old son
I hope isn't/won't be nicknamed Baghdad Bob, first thing I thought of when seeing his name.

Wee Baby Seamus
Yo, Goober, where's the meat?
Hope this re-encourages Chelsea and Mount to sit down and hash out a contract. No reason why he should leave.

I think the United 55 offer is pretty fair.
Havertz had two years remaining at 67.5. Mount only has one. Age already factored relative to Kovacic’s price.

Hazard wasn’t rinsed, and depending on what your definition of “not far off” they likely won’t unless they’re stupid.
Which doesn’t change the fact that 250 million for him considering his contract situation is a ridiculous fee.
Well Chelsea will likely have to pay up in the end. Mount’s demands are probably too high, but hard to blame him with what they were playing plenty of other guys.

The main thing was that he wanted what Reece got. A year ago, that was fully legit - it’s a little less so now. I think he’ll probably come down a bit and the club will meet him there.

So something like 70 for Mount but Mbappe 250 is ridiculous?
I'd take one Mbappe over 5 Mount.

Over the life of the contract it might not matter, but you also have to factor in what would be likely triple or more wages.
They’re both crazy, but 250 for a player who has no real market because there’s only two or three clubs who can get him, and who has said he won’t resign (I think he would) is a tough pill to swallow. Even if it might be the market price

If they end up with Vicario/van de Ven/Tapsoba, I will begrudgingly say those are good pieces of business in positions where they were desperate. If they add Maddison to that and keep Kane, I am not sure how much better the window could go, as far as incomings go. They still have bodies they have to sell
He resigned last year, that's the thing.
And besides, how many clubs would put 70M for Mount? Hardly more than 2 or 3.
Just wondering...
Besides, as I said, it's 200M + 50M bonuses

It won't end up being 250M, but I totally believe it is the starting point of negociations for PSG.
Madrid has a little more leverage than PSG here... but considering we were burned last time we thought we had leverage, Perez might be a little nervous and pay a ridiculous fee. As much as I love Mbappé, I would not wait for him if I were Perez. Either the fee makes sense to Madrid or you turn around and go after Kane or another CF... or you run with what you have and hope to get Mbappé on a free... but that's very risky.
Yeah, I think last year is going to weigh a lot.
200M is also a way to get rid of the problem and get it done once and for all.
Still, the position problem remains. But that's Mbappe's problem.

Considering how productive he has been as a 9 in the past, I do not think it should be a problem. But, hey, who knows with these huge ego players

The issue of waiting for a free is that then you have to deal with City offering an insane contract including a ton of under the table Abu Dhabi money.
