Ya, we're not gonna spend 30 million on a defender... Let alone one who would probably end up being back up

Never in a million Sundays will we spend £30m on a defender let alone one that will be a potential backup.

Benatia is better than any defender we currently have. Not that we're getting him though.

He's excellent, but not £30 million worthy
