My Reading supporter mate just posted on Facebook that he is gutted to be losing this guy and that he could be the next Pogba.

Hope he is a bit like Matuidi who impressed me in most of the France games.

He just waltzed past players.
;D

Some people are suggesting we're paying over the odds at £5M for this guy. Just take a look at the Gossip column on the BBC Football site. Transfer prices of £15 to £40M are rife. £5M is indeed peanuts these days. Also, it's interesting to see our profile on the Gossip column no longer exists, a result of being in the Second tier. I just hope we can get back to the PL at the first attempt, otherwise we run the risk of being left cut adrift of the rest for years. Crazy money in the PL with the new TV deal.

Crazy money - yes.
Wasted by many - probably.
Leaving us - in a great place. If RdM / Clarke spend the dosh wisely and build a coherent and committed squad we can not only go back at the first time of asking but also be well-placed in the following season.

What Eddie Howe is doing at Bournemouth bears learning from.

The crazy money in the PL is generally being spent on the same players, either in transfers or wages i.e. money in is generally equalling money out.  This means that the clubs are not getting much stronger, only if they are strengthening from overseas.  The wise clubs are saving some of the 'new' income for a later day but I do not see much of that at the moment.

I do not see the future being much different for promoted clubs catching up in that, if you have money to spend when you are promoted and you already have a well balanced attack minded team, you generally survive and build from there.  The bigger the club, the easier it is.
