Nah, very good price for a player who we've already replaced with someone cheaper who's got a higher ceiling.
Marina approves of this business
Also he never stood a chance (politically) vs. Neto. He was a Vivell buy, had no protection. Neto's got the Jorge Mendes rub
Nkunku is a Vivell buy, yet he's been (rightly) favoured over Mendes client in Felix...

I like Noni but in the end he has little end product. I feel he is always moping around the pitch and shirks his defensive duties at times. I like his willingness to take on the defender, not enough wingers do this nowadays but he often tries one too many times and loses possession or doesn't pass when our players are in space or in better goal scoring positions. In the end, we get a 20m+ profit. He may well develop but at present, we need to balance the books for UEFA, and I hope we focus on a keeper and a central defender where we are extremely weak
