That wouldn’t get you Messi’s toe nail.

£20m is not OK for a Ligue 1 player with half a decent season under his belt.

It is if he helps keep us up.
That’s the going rate, get used to it.

I don't think there is much chance we will spend £20m on one player during this transfer window. I take all these names and amounts with a large pinch of salt. Happens every single January, and then again all Summer. I don't even bother looking through the names linked with us any more, there are so many it would be like reading War & Peace. Once they are pictured at the CCS holding a City shirt with their name on it, I would be fairly sure we have made a signing.

Warnock has already said he's scouted Sala and that he played poorly when he watched him in person but we're still interested. So I'm happy the link is correct. I agree that chances are the price isn't correct. Either way I wouldn't like to risk that money on him. I'd rather pay that for someone like Jay Rodriguez (although he wouldn't leave West Brom)

Warnocks not going to to say he’s a fabulous striker and he’s keen as mustard to sign him for obvious reasons

He's already said in a press conference he's interested and then later on said he thought it was done but the fee was too big. He said he watched him play and he played poor. Do you really think West Ham and other clubs linked with him will turn around then and go "Oh Neil Warnock said Sala was poor the other day, let's not bid for him". Daft.

Except they’re not, all other press - including those close to Wolves and Chelsea - have said there hasn’t even been a bid yet.
People think something is true just because it’s on Sky Sports News.
