For me, the Pogba and Lukaku deals are the 2 biggest catalysts for the market getting out of control. With Pogba they bought his marketability which obviously ramped the price up, he was never worth 90m for his footballing ability alone. Then they go and shell out the same value for Lukaku, and let's face it, he doesn't have any market value therefore they shelled out 90m on his footballing ability alone. If he's worth 90m for his ability then they've ramped up the value of every other player in the league.
Neymar and Mbappe only cemented the fact that prices have gone crazy. We either adapt or get left behind.
Obviously I'm a Liverpool fan and I'm gonna hammer Utd at every opportunity
Mourinho spent god knows how much on SWP, Damien Duff, Shevchenko, Ferriera, Kezman etc. He started the sh!t the first time at Chelsea when he failed in Europe.
