If we had £40-50 mill to spend would you go for a Rodrigo de Paul at £40 mill and hope he’s the next Bruno Fernandez good, or buy three players circa £15mill and hope all three are Rafhina good?
They say you get what you pay for but no guarantee a big player will settle and then it’s all your eggs in one basket?
Think i’d (just) go the top player option.
{Ed0666's Note - Rodrigo De Paul looks like a tasty player. I’d go all in for him instead of 3 lesser priced players.

If it was the summer and we had another £100m to spend then De Paul is quality (if a tad over priced at £40m for me) . Right now though we have a thin squad with holes, £40-50m gets us Pulgar, a really good LWB, a back up keeper and either a veteran striker or project youngster to back up Bamford.

De Paul is a class player and i'm sure would be a massive asset to Lufc. If he does come to us it will be in the summer or never. The Pozzo family are notoriously difficult to negotiate a deal with, they will always want more than the price the player is worth. Fingers crossed for that one in the summer.
