    That was always too much to ask for an injury prone striker. He has his qualities, but availability isn’t one of them. He should’ve been put up for sale for £50 million from the start

      So like I say in my weird amalgamation of paragraphs above, I agree - the only reason it got bumped up that high is because Napoli saw lira signs and bet that one of Arsenal or Chelsea would be desperate enough to pay whatever the asking price. Now they’re fucked. Even if he has a good season in Turkey, he can’t go for more than 60 now, whereas they could have gotten at least 75 if they’d at 80 or so.
