i mean DDG is world class but the narrative here is wrong
he was 18 and a youngster with a big potential when he joined you lot, he wasnt a wc keeper at that time, the WC status came after he settled well at United. na pia siyo kila mchezaji ana-make it big kwenye his career akiwa na miaka 18-20, kipindi ambacho Iniesta/Xavi/Modric/Alonso etc walikuwa na miaka 18-20 wangeuzwa for peanuts, because they were just youngsters with big potential. so Allison blew up when he was 24, its fair to say he came late to the party but went on to prove his abilities and earned himself a big move.
the issue of price tag is irrelevant too, considering your paid 89m for Paul Pogba, thrice the money Madrid paid for Modric/Kroos, thrice the money Chelsea paid for Ngolo kante, and twice the money LFC paid for Naby Keita, and while we're at it, Man City just paid 60m for a 27 year old Mahrez ambaye tayari nafasi yake ina watu wawili Sterling/Bernado Silva
we just need to accept kuwa tangu ile sale ya Neymar, inflation kwenye football imekuwa ni kitu cha kawaida tu kwasasa, thats why Everton are spending 50m for Richarlson, Spurs paid 30m for Sisokho, and recently they were quoted 45m for Grealish, we sold PC for 140m, chelsea want tp sell a 27 year old Hazard for 190m, and surprisingly enough a 30 years old Willian is quoted at 80m, and thats is how the market rolls now a days, and if ukikataa kujoin the party, unaachwa nyuma, na ndo maana unaona skint and stubborn managers kama Klopp wanaspend big pia.
if DDG akiuzwa leo hii, it wont be less than 150m
