I did read on Twitter that this was the dreaded "a done deal" and the source quoted £15m

If he does arrive I think we'll all feel a little better once he pings his first free kick into the top corner.

Personally don't have any problem with this. 15m for Baines is very acceptable given the current market. And I think he will suit us much more than Alba would have.

Still, if you consider Alba (23) moving for 11mil and Baines (27) for 15 you do wonder what value we'll be getting.
That said, Baines does seem a United-like player, solid. If it was around 10-12 I'd be OK with it but 15 is pretty high. Still, if it happens he'll be playing for another 4-5 years, pinging in quality free kicks and corners.
Interesting fact, Baines made 45 appearances for Everton last season and was subbed off only once, pretty durable.

The extra 5 million is the 'English player/league premium'. Alba moved from one Spanish club to another. Barca and Real practically dictate terms in that league. They pay whatever they want to and the selling clubs just bend over and take it.

Nothing to do with the fact he was a Barca youth player either no?

Just look at Kaggy and Nasri's transfers.

It happens with other clubs too.
Even if we offered 20mill to Valencia we wouldnt have got him.
