Styles 9,790 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Doesn't look anything special, and I'd prefer we kept the path open for the likes of Baker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 The only player we should be signing from Cruzeiro is Everton Ribeiro. fantastic player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,083 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Well to me he looks extremely impressive in that video. It certainly makes me want to see more of him to discover if that vid represents his true level. Love his appreciation of momentum; the way he calmly touches the ball into an area where the opponent's movement can't get to. Reminds me of Nathan Ake who also does that.Whether Silva is worth spending money on however needs a lot more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonsFinest 692 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Weren't we getting Khedira on a free? Really, tho, he looks okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Heard of him, people talk like he is the next big thing from brazil, but I never saw him, so cant make any judgement. But still, I would prefer us to give chance to RLC, Baker etc. before going for another young CM. Or Tielemans if our board wants to buy another talented CM...

Let the overrated Brazilians stay in their country. Or join Liverpool and Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself 793 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 No. Our own youth is more important than the some random Brazilian kid who will never make it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 He is 21 so he will never become home-grown, doesn't really make sense if he isn't a potential superstar. However, if Real wanted him it must mean he has something going for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
