Not searched but did we try for Rajkovic or Cakir?

Id have sent Petr in so hard after Henderson giving him full arse creep mode.

No.

I could imagine Mendy is a bit of a stop gap himself until a genuine wc goalie comes avaiable. Mendy has his deficiencies and that will cost us. not as much as kepa but is that really the benchmark. when ederson, alisson came to city, pool, their defense woes were mostly sorted all at once. we would need a goalie with a similar impact to challenge for titles and everyone knows it.

But spending 25 million Euros for a stop gap does not sound right to me. 25 million GK and 80 million GK on the bench next season? Who will buy them?

Ederson is a little bit overrated in ky opinion. He always looks clumsy to me.
Are there really any genuine wc goalies available next season though? Oblak no chance and even Oblak has weaknesses because he is not the most dominant GK in the air. I do not think Martinez will leave Villa after one season, only chance would be if they got relegated.
Onana has weaknesses,Mike Maignan has weaknesses etc. Only GK I know, apart from Martinez, that seems to be the complete package is Musso. But I have not watched him enough, but I did not see any real weakness.

Yes. But Kepas the problem of course.

WHO would want him even if they could afford him or his wages.

I see that Grannys put a £50m price on his head! Thats scared anyone even slightly interested away.

We either take a £40m hit or  use him as the most expensive backup keeper ever till he leaves on a free!

Mendy won’t be on outrageous wages I guess. He can be shifted If necessary. The problem remains Kepa. For me the Mendy deal is a bit of an inside job. No way we would be looking at him if it weren’t for the lollichon Petr Rennes connection.  If that turns out good or bad Idk I just hope he turns out at least decent like Leno, Pope  or Dubravka.

I don't think Mendy is being thought of as a stopgap at all. The €25m we'll pay for him isn't massive, but that's decent money for a keeper. If we wanted a stopgap we'd have gone for someone like Ben Foster or something.

If Mendy does well he's our long term solution. 

[Special Juan 27,429]

Mendy is coming in to play, don't let FL's interview last night throw you....Kepa is a serious problem

[Nero 1,838]

We need Mendy, NOW. 

He must come play against Liverpool 

[Nero 1,838]

I wouldn't blame him if he wanted to leave.

Lamps has preferred Barkley over CHO 

[ZAPHOD2319 4,483]

Mendy is not playing today.

We dont have any backup winger though

Lampard sees Mount as our no. 1 winger BU, so CHO is only our second choice BU

So he can go from sitting on our bench to sitting Bayerns? 

I think many of you are forgetting the sheer amount of games we have this season. CHO will get enough playing time.

It does seem a strange play by Bayern. They already have 2 really class LWers in Sané and CL game winning goal scorer Coman. Maybe they want to use him as Gnabry's backup at RW, as they have no one really there unless you count Müller. Seems strange to but another right-footed winger though, as that means all four of their wingers would be right-footed.

Seems like we will have Kepa for the the weekend game as well ...

Maybe it is more from the end that you took our young players lets take urs

I feel this could be more from an investment view, if games are divided between Gnabry and Odoi and if he clicks, PL clubs would come in for him at a higher ceiling.

Should have signed boga for peanuts just in case this happened
