    Think they paid £90/€100 mill for Hazard, when he was in the same situation.

    No brainer for them. Why wait? He can potentially replicate the "original" Ronaldo and be there for ages and they build a team around him. He's going to be great wherever he goes. Poor euros? meh, he oozes class this lad

    I think they've just pipped us. I'm fairly sure FSG will have bid but 136m was their limit.

    We must've offered more? Think he was lured by the Spanish climate

    Doesn’t matter if we do, if he still wants to go to Real that’s the end of it.

    Stinks of fear to me.

    They're absolutely terrified that Mbappe could go somewhere else and they miss out on their big, shiny Galactico that rescued them from the threat of not being the biggest draw in World Football at a time where the Premier League still retains Guardiola+Klopp and the two Spanish giants have debt issues of different sorts, with no Messi or Ronaldo in their League and many stars now in England at a time when England have reached a major tournament final.

    If they swing their dicks now, as big an outlay as it is, they get to cling onto being "the biggest and bestest" for some time longer. Clearly, for them, they deem it worth it. The prospect of him signing a pre-agreement for someone in January terrifies them, so they've marked their territory by having a massive piss on the curtains.
