Will the price of English players realign with the rest of Europe any time soon?
A couple of examples from my club - Maguire goes for £80M, Soyuncu cost £19M and is a better player, in my opinion; Chelsea pay £50M for Chilwell, and we spend £18M on Castagne, a Belgium international.
We need a centre half and Burnley think Tarkowski is worth £50M, with players like Tah and Fofana valued at less than half that.
It can't be about being a "proven premier league player" or the home grown quota.
Premier League clubs get loads of TV money so they can hold out for bigger fees. Burnley were something like the 25th richest club in the world recently, they don't really need the money.
