He was probably worth it to them, they were making mega bucks back then

Think they made half a dozen signings around that sort of money while we were spending sub £5M. It's changed a bit recently thankfully

I can still recall the £900,000 we paid for Barnes back in 87. Seemed like a bargain even then. No idea how much that’d be nowadays with actual inflation and football transfer craziness inflation.

The Tompkins Times does a whole thing on relative values of transfers and I think Ferdinand’s was more than VVD as it was massive at the time they bought him.

Is that out of date? Doesn’t have VVD or Alisson
