      Or Vini

      Or Mbappé really, although he is kinda wasting his career farming for the bag

        If getting paid the money Mbappe is paid is considered wasting your career, then sign me the fuck up to wasting my career

          Fully agree, but the type of 55y/o bald English guy who wear a Grealish shirt around wouldn’t

          The guy is already worth near a quarter billion, makes 72m per year, will get some sort of signing bonus at the next club he goes to, and is only 24.

          He’ll be a billionaire by the time he retires if he plays his cards right.

          “Wasted” is crazy - the man’s been milking his career like an absolute genius since day 1.

            Because he was already at the club for a few years. It’s not the same seeing a player develop than seeing a player have an immediate impact. And Vinicius was pretty hyped too when he arrived in Madrid, until the excitement kinda died down due to his bad finishing, then Hazard (briefly) becoming the new shiny toy.

            People are always excited with new, big signings. People are always excited with young, talented signings. People are always excited when a new signing immediately performs, and even more if it’s above expectations.

            What we’re seeing with Bellingham is the addition of all that.
