Insane levels of copium.
£60m and £250k a week for a player who "looks lively" in just 400 minutes of football, total. And scores 1 (meaningless) goal. And is not be in the manager's top 5 midfield picks in any position.
£85m for a player who "might prove useful, might be sold (say the at a £65m loss part very quietly)"
And what example is Mainoo suppose to follow? Being comfortably the worst regular starter at the club in a full calendar year? Becoming a catastrophically shit holding midfielder who lunges in and takes himself out of play at every available opportunity, never tracks back and makes passes like he's being electrocuted? We should keep Mainoo as far away from him as possible.
