    Hang on, weren’t Norwich wanting just £7m for him?

    How have we gone from £4m to £6m and now £8.5m?

    Don’t get me wrong he’s a good player, but surely his worth is in the £5-6m range.

    Ridiculous price and length of time to do the deal, but who cares we've got our number one target. A player we know improves us

    And now we know what's left to go out and get the other positions

    His worth comes partly from us knowing he fits in with the team, the manager wants him and he's young so room to improve. £8m for a player that scores big goals isn't a lot really. Just because Kyogo or Jota was less doesn’t mean a player isn't worth that.

    We've also seen Miovski go for 7m today, to a new club and he'd not done well prior to Aberdeen.

    So he's our second highest transfer after Edouard. Everything is inflated down there, so no really shocked by the amount. Gone are the days of signing Sutton's and Hartson's in that market, as they would be £20 + million these days.

    £10m brought in by the sales of Haksa, Oh and Lawal.

    The fee means NOTHING when we have shown the manager that he is to be backed to get the players HE wants!

    We've shown we can/are willing to spend record fees for the 'right' player.

    We should continue in this vein to significantly strengthen the weakest areas of the team. Not continue wasting a similar outlay in smaller fees for 3 or 4 different duds.

    I think Idah will be Rodgers no1 striker. Not sure how i feel about that as I love kyogo, but I highly doubt we buy a player for 8.5 and put him on the bench

    Happy with that long term.

    Kyogo couldn't bat a fly off of his ramen.

    Where we should have had the loan to buy option but we left it far too late. Probably a very expensive lesson for us.

    Doubted him in January, glad we get him back. He really wants to be here, scored big goals! Think he will be a player that might want to stick around longer than the usual 2/3 years

    Depends on the opposition i guess. Sometimes you need a battering ram in the league up front, if Kyogo is being bullied.

    We need a bullying type of attacker and Idah is that
