I wonder where that leaves Daniel James.

As backup - which is probably right for him at that level. No shame in it.

Hopefully somewhere he can get regular football.

i) In a competition for a starting place, and
ii) Having to be ready to make the most of his opportunities when they do come, and
iii) Even less likely to get support from the twitter fans who will want to see other players.

Sancho and others might be fine players but I want to see James win the starting spot in pre-season and make this look like a waste of money.

Is it better for Wales if he plays regularly for a mid-table Premier League team or warms the bench for Man Utd?

Playing regularly, gaining confidence. I think he's regressed as a player over the last year.

Man City get about 15%

Clearly, COVID is having little effect on the sort of fees the "big six" can pay.

Who'd have guessed this when they were pleading poverty a few months ago.
