UKTexans Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Looks like Swansea will sign Sam Cluclas for 15m. Probably around 7m higher than his value, but solid nevertheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles $5$ Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 That is really cheap for a player of his caliber in this market... I wish we had room for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAW Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Don't rate Barkley that highly, hope we don't get him even if only 20 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has still has promise. Plus he'd be depth. 20 mil in this market is fantastic. An England player for 20mil while you see guys like Walker, Stones and Drinkwater valued at 40mil+ Edited August 21, 2017 by Kip Smithers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm torn on Barkley, I think he got blamed for far too much at Everton but I just don't really see him as top four quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but while you can get him for free, he's gonna have no shortage of buyers. I don't think he's great but he adds depth. 20mil is peanuts in the market. I'd take him for that price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am interested to see what he could do in a squad where all of the creativity for the side isn't placed on his shoulder. He was basically responsible for creating all the chances in the Everton side and that's a tremendous amount of responsibility to put on a young player.

Hopefully his wage demands aren't too crazy, or he could price himself out of a move to Tottenham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it came down to 20m for Barkley or 30m for Drinkwater I think I'd take Drinkwater and I wouldn't look back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkley also has the untapped potential to be vastly better than Drinkwater. I think he's as good as him now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
