As a Bundesliga fan, I love the PL clubs endless resources and determination to burn money by refusing to do any sort of scouting or roster planning. Edit: due to my direct translation from German I have apparently misused the word roster.

Regarding Sancho's cost to United: 140m is only transfer fee and wages, I would be surprised to learn that there wasn't a huge sign-on fee, a loyalty bonus, a number of other bonuses as well as the usual agent fees involved.

[@1630revelloify]

Some of these are good players signing for the wrong club at the wrong time. Lukaku to Chelsea made no sense, as they'd just sold Tammy Abraham who would have done no worse for a lot less cash. Van de Beek and Sancho were exceptional talents before joining Manchester United, which I think has more to do with the club than the players. A huge part of the problem is big clubs wanting to be seen to make high profile signings irrespective of the squad (Chelsea and Man U are the obvious culprits) so as to bolster their global image. Remember also that a few years ago, Dom Solanke would have been included in this list, so there's hope yet for some. Oh, and please do an investigation into the way that amortization has fuelled grossly inflated transfer fees and ridiculously long-term contracts. Have a great 2024, Alfie.

Grealish gets an unfair amount of criticism tbh. Like all other players, Grealish was not the one who deemed him worth 100mill. I will never understand why people make transfer fees the players fault. Secondly, Guardiola has changed Grealish's game to fit the system. He started to take less risks and became much more defensively sound, tracking back and covering the fullbacks. This is why at the start of the season and up until recently, Grealish was preferred over Doku in the big games. Just look at the 4-4 game Vs Chelsea. Doku was at fault for 3 goals, and after that Grealish started all of the champions league games. Yes, he needs to be braver and score a bit more but he's still a very good player he offers much more than he seems to get credit for

Ajax is a club that develops young players, so they are supposed to be better at 22 years old than at 19, the fact that you are able to read numbers does not make the numbers reflect his development. Manchester United is such a mismanaged club that it had to get him a year too early, so he wasn't ready yet, from Ajax that wasn't ready to sell yet. So you overpay about 20 million relative to a matured Antony one year later for a player that at that point in time was worth 20 million less, so that makes a 40 million loss compared to a proper squad policy. On top of that you give that player a bad start making him having to recover from a struggle.

Brewster still has time to build a career, some injuries can take a couple of years to recover from and a bit longer for the player to regain confidence and start fully using that part of their body again.

Should've been half Man Utd, half Chelsea, these 2 clubs have destroyed themselves over the last 10 years to the point they are consistently on par with Bournemouth and Wolves these days. As a Chelsea fan I am disgusted with the board over the last 15 years.

)You guys(Chelsea) over the past 2 decades were actually good other than Roman despite him sacking managers left, right and center and big money signings that never worked at least Chelsea were winning trophies and acting smartly under him Ever since Boddly and the whole Ukraine invasion thing there has been utter chaos at Chelsea with Todd trying to do same things under Roman but spending more money in much shorter time

Antony is the worst player to have ever played in the premier league.

It's ridiculous that City has become one of the more reasonable clubs in the prem when it comes to transfers by now lol Edit: more reasonable doesn't mean truly reasonable though, it's still a clusterfuck

Even as a united fan, I'll admit city's transfers are usually spot on. Only mistake id say is grealish, way too much money for not enough output

Antony is the biggest example of being expensive because of their passport.

[@denyrachmatramdhanynew2894]

You could've put Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo on the list of Premier League worst transfer ever since 2020. Chelsea's performance is still unstable and has not moved from the bottom of the table. And often reap minor results. Is it possible that Chelsea's dark period will happen again like last season?

[@user-kl3pw6gn9r]

I guess the length of their contracts and that they haven't been horrendous is probably why, but they are part of a very mediocre Chelsea team, and haven't been good enough to make the difference (Grotesquely expensive rbf)

[@UzairAli-fn6tz]

Enzo and caicedo are two of the best talents in world football its just that chelsea is in such a mess that they haven't been at their best

[@Alfie_1]

He said it would be harsh to put in anyone in the last 12 months, and Enzo Fernandez was signed in Jan, and Caicedo over the summer. Very possible that they would be in a year or two.

[@T33K4Y68]

Chelsea stability has nothing to do with them as player and them being signed. One played under Potter and Lampard, and the other's 4 months into an injury stricken team that hasn't gelled yet under a manager with no clue what he's doing either. If you weren't picking easy targets you'd say Sterling bcs he's a senior PL experience player on 350k pw that's at the center of the team's struggle for goals the entire time those two have been at Chelsea

[@johnmitchell2269]

The hate you have for Lukaku Alfie has no bounds. The guy is a great player that just wasn't in the right team with the right coach. Underrated player.

[@GavSaysPogMoThoin]

It's Antony or Antony dos Santos. Not Anthony Martial. Top notch, quality video mate. Not in any way biased towards MU either. 👏😂

[@Bghjssjald233]

Lukaku is one of the most misused misunderstood players ever, watching Chelsea play him how they did was so insanely frustrating.

[@jemfod]

Premier League clubs are laughed at the world over for over spending on unproven players. Lots of money but little brain

[@trejt]

Chelsea have had mostly disastrous transfers for the last 5 years, but Lukaku wasn’t worth his fee because he didn’t fit in with their style as it had been for a while: low scoring games with a great defense. I think of the likes of Timo Werner, who was incapable of scoring unless the ball bounced off his ass into the goal and how many times does that happen in a season. They recruited Kai Havertz at the same time and he, too, though able to score if there was no time to consider missing, only racked up 4-6 goals even when for some reason (height?) he played as a striker. Why Arsenal thought he would score for them I have no idea but he’s done no better and is the worst transfer I’ve seen happen under MA. Mason Mount was adored by pundits and every Chelsea manager for reasons I never understood. He isn’t a good shooter, he doesn‘t have great passer’s vision, I never understood the pedestal they put him on but at MU he has played (when he plays) just like back at Chelsea and his productive output is minimal.

[@veler6049]

I'm a Chelsea fan and I agree. I can't get why every manager and pundit thought Mount was Lampard reincarnated.

[@Zenbassador]

Havertz to Chelsea deserves a shout. That guy was horrendous for them

[@chidon1113]

Havertz won us the Champions league and we sold him to Arsenal almost recruiting the very said amount.lol. so what are you talking about dude 😎

[@VelvetMetrolink]

​@StephenC-dk1vl No it isn't. A millennium is 1000 years. So the first millennium was 1-1000. The second was 1001-2000. The third is 2001-3000. It's called counting.

@Ceaseless_Watcher the first year of your life begins exactly a year before your first birthday. the first minute of football takes place between 0:00 and 0:59. The ninetieth between 89:00 and 89:59. Hope this helps

[@pippip8744]

This is why the world ended on both dates. Once for the literalists and once for the pendants. (Take your pick which is which) All the bad signings since then have been purely figments of our now extinct imaginations.

I thought the Sancho was such a terrible signing at the time as Man Utd were desperately short in other areas of the pitch and should have tried to strengthen those instead of another attacking winger

In fairness to Brewster most games he's played has been the last 10 minutes or if he has started it's been away at like city in a team that couldn't get out of their half. Also every time he looks like picking up form his hamstring goes again. Really hoping he can stay fit next season and smash it in the championship but he'll deffo just get injured again

[@PatTalisman]

I'm convinced transfers like Lukaku, Auba, Sancho are just for laundering money. Passing players between clubs, no intention of keeping them and hand them back to parent club and the player wages are collateral to keep the players quiet.
