I thought this was another thread revealing how much we'd really got for Billy.

How many Billy bodins would that get you? If we assume (a generous to our negotiating ability) £475k for BB, then the answer is 298.947 |

Absolutely crazy money.
This is going to make the big transfers even more silly, if Coutinho is apparently worth £142M, then somebody like Eden Hazard must be worth £500M.
If Virgil Van Dijk is worth £75M then how much would the likes of Bobby Moore, Beckenbaur, or even more recently Paulo Maldini be worth in today's climate?
The mind boggles.

This sort of thing puts me off of football. It’s just disgusting! In a way I like us being league one as above that is where it starts to get silly but I just want better facilities to watch it in. UTG!

I think Liverpool have played this really smart.
They already have Salah, Mane, Firmino, Sturridge and Lallana, with Brewster and Woodburn to come through.
They are not exactly short of attacking options, but with the knowledge that they were going to get £142 million they have spent a combined £125 million of it on a world class defensive midfielder (Keita) and defender (van Dijk), both of which are much needed to strengthen their spine.
Get themselves a world class keeper and they'll be in great shape.

That just sums up the gulf from the absolute elite clubs in football, 142 million on a single player! What we would do to have that sort of money spent on a ground.

It's rampant capitalism gone mad, just like in British industry, where the top earners take 200x the salary of the average manager, when in reality they are about three times as good.
And don't tell me he's worth it for the millions he'll bring to the party in attendances and sponsorship.
Nobody would have stopped sponsoring or watching Barca if they hadn't signed him.
It's like the last days of the Roman Empire.
