Cristiano Ronaldo joined from Sporting for £12m in his age 18 season. He had 14 goals & assists in 40 apps (168.2 mins per G/A).
Florian Wirtz joined from Leverkusen for £116m in his age 23 season. He has 10 goals & assists in 30 apps (206.9 mins per G/A).

Oh, and he had 51 G/A. I'm embarrassed for you.
I will never forgive everyone that compared Virgil Van Dijk to Nemanja Vidic, John Terry and Rio Ferdinand. He has no business being compared with this Legends!
Most forced debate in the history of the Premier League.

Can't think of a luckier generation 🐐🙌
Virgil van Dijk is one of the most arrogant, unlikeable players there is who always exposes himself when things don't go his way. Another performance today that demonstrates how overrated & overhyped he is.
The performances never matches the PR & reputation isn't the reality.
𝗧𝗥𝗢𝗬 𝗛𝗢𝗪𝗔𝗥𝗗 𝗜𝗦 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞! 👊
The man who strikes fear in full backs!
Is faster than a speeding bullet and back where he found a home!
Let’s all welcome back Troy Howard to the Brickies 🔴⚫️
🚨The myth created by Liverpool fans that Fernando Torres took ‘’Vidic’s soul’’ during the time they faced is one of the biggest myths in football.
• Torres scored only 3/G in 15 apps against Vidic.
• Rashford scored 7/G in 11 apps against van Dijk.
🚨 The way Marc Guehi and Eberechi Eze have acted this summer while their Crystal Palace futures have been up in the air should be an example to players who are looking to move clubs.
THIS IS HOW YOU ACT! THIS IS HOW YOU SHOW CLASS! THIS IS HOW YOU STAY PROFESSIONAL AND LOYAL!
Another fantastic performance from the Cannons last night as we ran out 4v0 winners ! Winning Man of the Match with a dominant performance, a goal and an assist - Tyler Sterling !
