Bruno fernades watch

It just shows how much this Sporting side rely on Bruno Fernandes when he's on form because other than him and Acuna, they're pretty poor.

In other news on the red button Stuart Bingham is fighting back

Rafa again doubles Benfica's lead and secures the 3 points.

Darren Fletcher from Bbc reporting its nowhere close to happening... 20-25 million apart in valuation
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So Sporting want £60m and we want to offer £80m?!

--------------------------------------------------



I don't think we're that far apart, if it is that amount, it's probably Euros.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah... The numbers fletcher is quoting is in euros and the other way around

They want 80, we reportedly value him at 55-60 million euros

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sporting are still desperate for cash, and part of the problem for them is that about half of Bruno’s fee disappears as soon as it hits their bank account.

They have a sell on fee to pay, the solidarity fee, agents fees (which will come out of the transfer fee in this case), and obligations to the bank which will automatically eat up a huge chunk.

Talk here is of them losing more than half of the fee immediately.

Yeah United paying Lisbon only about €37m.

10% to the agent, 10% to Sampdoria and solidarity fees for clubs he played for between the ages of 12 and 23.

Brings the total United will fork out to about €70m.

thought I will share this for those who missed the game and are curious how he played

the hype around fernandes reminds me of that around renanto sanchez a few years ago

Looks class on YouTube, but underwhelmed every time I've watched him, which is about 5 times.

He really doesn't excite me. Has a good shot maybe, but not much more.
