Right now it's all about branding. If Carpet Head had sold Dougie for £20m (Total deal £46.5m) with a couple of kids thrown in I'd expect him to being getting pelters. Monchi does it and he's a genius.

FWIW I think to two young players will improve season on season and expect the season after next for both to be regular starters. At €15m a pop they're not cheap (unless you're Chelsea) but they should prove to be great investments.

I don't quite see the Gerrard- Monchi comparsion. The reason why people feel a bit more confident about Monchi doing it is because Emery is the manager and not Gerrard.

Our attempts at "Monchi work" under Gerrard was Purslow chucking suitcases of money at Coutinho (not due to stop for two more years unless reports of a contract-release are true).

€15m + €15m + €25m = €55m
€55m converted to GBP is £46.49m

All fees have been reported in Euros since day one.
