Another one bites the dust. He's already at a price point which doesn't leave many options though. I cannot see Barcelona being in position to go for him. PSG seem to be going down a different route now and would have to move Neymar on to make way for him. Doubt United will after their investments in Sancho and Antony over the last 2 summers. Liverpool unlikely to commit to that fee and if they did, they won't commit to both him and Bellingham for those sort of fees. Bayern have just signed Mane so unlikely. City possibly but they already have the likes of Grealish and Foden operating there. Madrid are probably the most likely but even then they have Vinicius playing in the same position unless one operated from the right hand side. If the talk is going to be £100m or more, I don't see massive competition for him in all honesty. Whether we would be prepared to drop that sort of transfer fee when we still need to sort our midfield and potentially keep tabs on our striking options for next summer I'm not sure. I don't like spending huge sums on a player because they regularly don't work out here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like spending huge sums on a player because they regularly don't work out here! I think he'll either end up at City or Madrid. The latter seems more probable, and despite Vini playing in a similar position, I could see Leao starting to play more centrally to fill the void that will be left whenever Benzema calls time.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 After the Haaland failure there is only one player we should be after: Killian Mbappe His relations with PSG are on the brink of disaster and another PSG failure in the champions league will be the last straw.

DDA 9,941 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Oh Dear!! This guy doesn't paint himself a very good light but I guess it's kind of refreshing to see somebody have the balls to try and out the media mafia in their place albeit a poor attempt.

Vegetable 830 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) We should hijack Diego Costa, at lest for him to join our coaching squad. Talk is good, but this knobhead invading training ground in paintball-guns equipped golfcart it would surely do better in terms of spirits correction. Never thought I'd say it, but we really lack some explosive personality. Edited September 7, 2022 by Vegetable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I'm joking obviously, but I feel loss of Rudiger (and maybe Zouma) hurts as more in terms of dressing room character, not pure skill. Apparently footballers are more sustainable to this kind of language, than Tuchel trying philosophical Mourinho on them Edited September 7, 2022 by Vegetable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
