But call me fucking crackers I think he will stay another season.

Around the 60 - 80M mark for the two cunts to trouser when it does happen.

My reliable source is telling me that Chelsea have offered Dortmund £135 million for Haaland. If that move goes through he won't be going to Chelsea this window. As that is clearly his preferred destination you may well have a point.

Now that is interesting,135. I have no idea how much Lukaku is worth but I would rather have a real deal than a Norweigan who had a good season.

And if they went that route, then the Rice transfer would still be an option - from their point of view.

Tbh, nobody is worth the money they generally go for, but if Maguire is worth £80mil then Rice is most definitely worth more than £60mil

Sancho has just gone for 73 million but a player is worth whatever another club are willing to pay. On the basis that Sancho hardly played in the Euro finals then Rice is worth more. If the little cunt says to Chelsea he wants 100m and Roman says 'Da' then he's worth 100m. If I put a fucking Happy meal toy for sale on Ebay for £100 and someone paid it then it's worth that.

I just wish they'd get on with it. I'm convinced the dwarf will agree to a fee of around 60m plus someone we don't need from the plastics 5 minutes before the end of the window just so there's no time to spend any of it.

Chelsea's priority along with City is a striker so if they have any chance of Haaland then that is likely where the budget will go.

The way I see it is that Rice at 22 with 3 years left on his contract, has now had 3 full seasons playing in the Premier League and is well established and respected as one of the best DM's in the league, also recognised by Southgate by picking him as a starter on a regular basis.

Sancho at 21 had a year left on his contract, has no Premier League experience and only plays a bit part in the England team. I appreciate he has played Champions League but it's a very different type of game. He may have potential but Rice is proven at the level.

IMO I don't see how Sancho is ahead of Rice at all.

Obviously they are different types of players, one can set up goals, the other stops them. What's more valuable?

I would say both are equally valuable
