| 1. Author: wetherby Date: Wed 26th Aug 2026. 15:28 Rumoured to be signing for Notts Forrest for around £40million. Can anyone explain how a forward who scored one goal last season can possibly command such a fee. The English transfer market has gone completely mad. Reply |

| 3. Author: Bandy Date: Wed 26th Aug 2026. 16:37 buying an English player is like buying a house in London. Vastly inflated prices, but people still pay and the assets holds its value - because of the homegrown rules for EPL squads, English players command a premium vs. foreigners. It`s another reason the English national team is going well - top clubs are incentivised to have English players in their first team squads. Reply |

| 7. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Wed 26th Aug 2026. 20:45 Chelsea also going to sell Jackson to Villa for £65m That’s £110m in for two strikers they don’t want. It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 8. Author: kelty_par Date: Wed 26th Aug 2026. 23:41 Not just English players. Savinho (now Savio), Marmoush and Jackson all gaining market value despite barely doing anything. It`s all just pretend money these days. Reply |
