/Thread.Solanke 20m
Andy Carroll £35m
Everton in the same transfer window they signed Sigurdsson, they also signed Davy Klaasen for £25m, Cenk Tosun for £28m and Theo Walcott for £20m.
Tierney £25m played a few games recently but overall hardly played for Arsenal
Jeezo, Walcott is a blast from the past. Whatever happened to him!?
What an imposter he has been. Doesn’t look interested...
It’s amazing to think of the money you have to spend just to stand still down there. Everton for example spent £107m last season and look likely to finish bottom half.
Rampant mismanagement
Off the back of this thread I was texting a mate thats an Everton fan, some notables over recentish years:
Schneiderlin - over £20 million
Richarlison - £35 million potentially rising to 50
Sigurdsson - £40 million
Walcott - £20 million
Pickford - £25 million
Iwobi - £28 million
Micheal Keane - £25 million
As he said, all that for essentially no return. Absolute madness
End of thread reallySolanke 20m
Yet Alfie is only worth £8-10mSolanke 20m
Crazy when you think how much money they can waste.Joelinton 40m
It’s ridiculous on the face of it , but Arsenal fans seem happy with the signing they see him as one of their best players , even after only playing a few games. And for his age 25 million probably isn’t that crazy when you see the other prices for average players on this thread.I'm still shaking my head at Tierney to Arsenal for £25 million.
I don't think even a fully fit Tierney is worth half of that.
Vardy for a million has to be one of the best bargains in epl history.I think a harder thread to think about is good bargains in the EPL.
That’s true whenever I see Luiz I always wonder how on earth he made it as a footballer. Hits a not bad free kick but that’s about it but to play for the teams he has he must have somethingHe now seems very popular with their support and has been playing well.
Horrible papish bast**d, but was always a good full back, when fit.
Compared to David Luiz, he looks an absolute snip.

Joelinton £40 million
Sebastien Haller £45 million
Wesley £22 million

Mahrez cost Leicester around about £400k, won the title then left for £60m.

He nearly signed for St.Mirren, but it was raining in Glasgow that day, he thought it would be warmer down south!Now that's a good one!
One that was a big miss was Lewandowski to Blackburn in 2010. Was booked in to fly over and sign, then the volcanic ash cloud stopped his flight and Dortmund swooped in.
Still turned out to be a great bargainLeicester were in the Championship when they bought him.
Yes it's a grand total of 14 goalsDo they even have ten goals between them?
