URZZZZ Smith Rowe (and Saka) have huge potential
Ultimately down to whether Arsenal can hit high levels again. Improvement is evident this season but the gap between them and the “top 3” is still huge
Don’t think Rice would fit at a big club as well as you’d expect. Very adept at bursting forwards into space with the ball. Little opportunity for that as part of a “top club” playing against banks of defenders. Same feeling with Phillips too, albeit different play styles

South Coast Royal I'm not sure that Rice would command such a high fee as £100 million even if West Ham think he is worth that much.
Personally I rate Kalvin Phillips higher because of his more accurate passing (essential for a top grade midfielder) but again as the big bucks tend to get paid for strikers and creative midfielders/ goalscorers I can't see anybody (even big spending Man Utd) paying that much for Rice or Phillips even if that type of player is desperately needed by them.

Rice appears to me to be an upgrade on Henderson, if Liverpool want to go that way

I rate Phillips higher at the moment purely on versatility but Rice is a few years younger so will get better. Phillips would be a good fit for Liverpool with Henderson and Thiago being 30+.

6ft Kerplunk Leeds getting relegated, Phillips going to Man Untied and the subsequent reaction of the Leeds fans would have me chuckling all summer.

paultheroyal At £70m Haaland is an absolute steal with remainder made up in his wages.
Surely he knows where he is going. Premier League has to be the place right now.
Surely what happened with his dad rules out Man Utd surely? Then because of the links to that, and money they must of saved, he has to be going to Man City surely?
