But some of those players aren't on their books anymore. Coutinho definitely isn't because he's been sold to Aston Villa. If they're only looking at the currently registered squads - Griezman also wouldn't count.Still, they spent over 400M just on Dembelé, Coutinho and Griezmann, there must be some overpaying in there, right?
I think you swapped the digits there.And AWB - circa £15m.
That's what I believe we overpaid for him by. I think transfermarkt had him valued at around £30-35m market value at the time we bought him.I think you swapped the digits there.
It says right there in the chart, how many transfers they've assessed. It is higher than 25 for all teams so it is not simply the current squads.But some of those players aren't on their books anymore. Coutinho definitely isn't because he's been sold to Aston Villa. If they're only looking at the currently registered squads - Griezman also wouldn't count.
Barca have underspent on 47m euro on an investment of 1465m euro in last 10 years but have only signed 8 players for over 50m euro in that time, so maybe loads of their 20-30m buys are now worth 50-60m or more, I dunno, you could say Naymar was a plus 120m investment as they sold him for £200m and made another £40m euro on Melo, i've not looked into it too far but those 2 came to mind.Still, they spent over 400M just on Dembelé, Coutinho and Griezmann, there must be some overpaying in there, right?
with the exception from Grealish who have we overpaid for in the last 5 seasons, I don't think we've massively overpaid for anyone, maybe Ake but I don't think we'll lose money if we sold him tomorrow, Mahrez at the time possiblyThe low value for City is questionable. I know that according to transfermarkt, they systematically overpay for players, pretty much for every single one. They'd get a much higher value than 23m there.
You don't need transfermarkt to figure it out either, it's kind of obvious.
If they were right it wouldnt be considered overpaying. The point is they havent been worth the money, which is the case with the vast majority of our signings the past 10 yearsUnited have always been taxed in the transfer market. This is a random story based on some algorithm for valuations, might as well be playing Football Manager. United have paid the money needed to get players they believed were needed. End of.
Ten years is a long time.How are Juventus so high up the list when they make so many free signings.
Not massively, but I looked at transfermarkt valuation at time of purchase vs. money spent and you tend to overpay something like 10m per player.with the exception from Grealish who have we overpaid for in the last 5 seasons, I don't think we've massively overpaid for anyone, maybe Ake but I don't think we'll lose money if we sold him tomorrow, Mahrez at the time possibly
I think that PSG's Neymar transfer and Barca's buys for Dembele, Griezmann and Coutinho had more effect on inflating the market than Maguire, Pogba or Fredleading the way on inflating the market.
Malacia also surely a bargainEriksen for free leaves us evens.
It's an actual model published in a peer-reviewed journal.Ah yes. A highly subjective "study".
We bought Pogba before Neymar went to PSG.I think that PSG's Neymar transfer and Barca's buys for Dembele, Griezmann and Coutinho had more effect on inflating the market than Maguire, Pogba or Fred
I think us blowing so much money on average players inflated the market more than actual top players that had multiple top teams after them.I think that PSG's Neymar transfer and Barca's buys for Dembele, Griezmann and Coutinho had more effect on inflating the market than Maguire, Pogba or Fred
