or that can play the RF role (like a Dele Ali or Griezmann.)

What about Timo Werner??

Given the circumstances that sounds like a good deal for us. But then again I'm not especially thrilled with the situation that leads to us losing one of our best strikers since I'm watching football. Don't get me wrong, Diego has only himself to blame and it's never nice to keep a disruptive player around no matter how talented he is. Obviously Conte thought the same and the club supported him which was the right thing to do.

He is good but we need someone who's approaching his peak or is in his peak. Worth remembering that Willian and Pedro are also getting on a bit. Both 29 and 30 respectively already.

Great player on form, shame he was a cunt.

Looking at some of the young guns that played against Forest last night we  may not need to I thought Musonda was a young Hazard, and his happiness when he scored was a joy to see. None of the guys that played looked overawed. I was really impressed with them to be honest

What about Tammy? He can come in an we have Morata, Tammy and Bats. That might not be that bad. 

Let's see how Tammy develops this season at Swansea

That's an utterly suicidal strikeforce to have for a club like ours. There are already doubts as to whether having Morata and Batshuayi is enough to compete on all fronts and adding Tammy into the mix will only add more doubts. Even if he develops well at Swansea, he's still only 19 years old and it would be unfair to expect so much from him at this point to contribute big time for us.

If he wasn't a cunt he wouldn't be half the player he is.

Adiós Diego, it was a unique experience having you at this club!

I think it's good business by the club.  On his day he is unplayable, but he didn't want to play for us (or be unplayable for us?......) anymore.

I think that the fee received is pretty good considering that he was only going to go to Madrid.

Even while at Villa, JT says "our". <3

Also, given the fee, we're essentially at a net neutral position as far as spending goes this season. Not good enough for a club like us. 

Better go hard out and buy a second striker, or winger who can step into that middle role when needed.

He is for certain will not playing for us again after he is partying in Atletico's shirt back then, not too sure why some still have some hope after that happened.

Twice the player Morata is or ever will be. I never looked at Conte in the same way after this stupid decision.
