30 million, ridiculous that
wow , taking the piss really- RS bid 12m for Jamal Lewis and they wanted 20m, went to Newcastle for 13.5, no way should we be paying that
It's Brands, he got James for free for christ sake, we will not be paying £30M for this lad.
Smells like this lad was somebody we had planned on bringing in next Jan or summer after seeing if he kicked on in the championship. But we've decided to roll the dice a bit early - if we're going to have to spend on a defender because loan options aren't exceptional, we may as well push the boat out and get one of our actual future prospects that we trust to step in if needed.5 centre halves though. Means Branthwaite as the youngest of the crop may see some loan action come January. (or we'll pick up another injury when Holgate comes back and all will be sound.
If we get this chap for anything north of 25 mil it does make you wonder why we pulled out of the gabriel deal
Maybe we got the other 3 for less than we were thinking at the time?Or Holgate getting injured was after we pulled out of Gabriel deal and so brought this forward as @Mick 1995 says
