these games today are showing why I freak out about height with fullbacks and CBs

the dwarf Kyle Walker-Peters (and he is a cm taller than Cucurella) was just ROASTED in air by the hardly giant (but not a dwarf) Sessegnon

I'm sure in time Cucurella will win you over. He's a class act. Even in his cameo today, his speed of thought and precise execution of passes is far clear of a lot of the players.

It was an interesting interview. Can't remember if it was linked here or I saw it elsewhere but worth a watch.

Depending on how Barca do with working out their issues, we should investigate taking Raphinha on loan for a season. Surely the wont want to pay him just to play Champions League. Ditto Lewa maybe. Would give us a year to workout permanent attacking solutions.

Depressing given Pulisic will remain but a loan could really work for him. 

[Pizy 18,368]

We appear to be in the same sort of position in regards to De Jong as United are. We’re interested just like they are but unless De Jong says he wants to leave it’s a moot point. And he’s reportedly desperate to stay.

Would be nice if we’re trying to convince him, though, in case he does decide to go.

I think his agent is playing the long game and de Jong is doing exactly what his agent says… keep saying you love it at Barca and you have no desire to leave. If Frankie jumped at the chance to leave, nobody is going to pay his Barca wages. The closer it gets to the end of the window, a big club might decide to pay.

Judging on today we need him badly

He’d be the picture perfect Jorginho replacement. But I still think we wait until next summer.

Fofana is going to take mega money and after that I think we’re done. Maybe a cheap striker.

[Nero 1,838]

CHO's career has really stagnated over last few years. Remember when he was under Sarri a big talent? And now 4 years later he's still a "big talent".

Time for change

barça needs to sell him to register their players

I don’t think  so , tuchel he is very upset about our midfield he knows that we need quality players for cm position, so we are spending 85m£ for fofana and 80m€ for de jong if we want to finish 3-4 in Pl table .

Surely there will be a sale if this De Jong deal works out. The midfield options are loaded - Carney didn't make the bench vs Everton

Jorginho Kante Kovacic Gallagher RLC Carney with Barkley, Gilmour also around.

[Special Juan 27,429]

Need to get CHO out and as part of this Fofana deal. Not a loan just shake hands and send him packing, he's not good enough.

He was reportedly also a United target as a De Jong alternative along with Fabian Ruiz who is now about to move to PSG. Their options are disappearing rapidly so I expect them to get totally desperate now and offer literally whatever sort of wages it takes to get him.
