from what I have read, he does not have the psychological strength to play at this type of club and is weak in the support game 

I'm not against buying him, but never for 80M

we are talking about a player that devalued 

so, we are asking so little for lukaku and vlahovic, who is worse, will be worth £80m? it makes no sense

Well, at the very least Vlahovic is twice the actual footballer that Lukaku is. It wouldn’t be as infuriating watching Vlahovic trying to receive the ball and using it, I just think he could end up being just as frustrating at actually scoring in the PL.

Loan mercenary or for the first team? 
So hard to judge Brazilian players and their league from youtube. At first they look like prime R9 and some seconds later it looks like they play on a school yard with pensioners as defenders.

Dybala & Vlahovic all but ruled out within a couple of hours. Which is a good thing.

I’m still holding out hope that we go for Kolo Muani if any striker is brought in.

Like the look of him but does he have 20+ goals a season in him?

He looks to me like a 15-18 goals + 10 assists type of forward. Someone who could link up spectacularly with the likes of Nkunku/Mudryk/Sterling and our midfield. Not a striker who will bag us 25-35 like Kane or Haaland.

I just want ANY striker we sign to be a proper footballer and not just a big lump who will be annoying as hell to watch with the ball at his feet.

So whats the plan here? Pre season tour around the corner and we only have 1 midfielder. Caicedo alone wont do it for us.. we need 1-2 more.
 
Or are we going to play Hall and Gallagher in midfield? 🤦‍♂️ 

Soon we are past the day, if we havent past it already, where all selling clubs will look at us and see a lonely Enzo and quote us £100m for every midfielder we might be interested in.


 
 

There's plenty of options. Gabriel Veiga. Rumours that PSG were close to signing him turned out to be false. Race is still open.

And there's Thuram, Kone, Lavia, Amrabat, Barella (tough pull). Only Rice has gone off the market.

We need to start moving a.s.a.p

Lack of ambition 

Wouldn’t say so.

He’s played in Italy since he was like 19 and is obviously comfortable there, why else would he of joined Roma and not a European/English side when he had chance to go anywhere he wanted on a free transfer?

Plus honestly, I think this sums up where we are just now with the uncertainty as to how things could go this year. A 12th place finish last season may not appeal to some established European based players like Dybala, who has played at Juventus and Roma winning plenty of trophies. The Mourinho pull is always going to be there too, was a huge reason why he signed for Roma. 

He would of been a good signing though but sums up where our recruitment may be at when it comes to more experienced pros. Hence the continued links to u21s maybe? But regardless we need to start ramping up and getting in and about some midfield signings and fast.

Our main DMF target, Ugarte, as well. 🫤

love of Italy as well

he would NEVER get a reception like this here

WATCH: Paulo Dybala given STUNNING RECEPTION by thousands of Roma FANS

 

Id say choosing comfort and clapping fans over competing in the PL is lacking ambition

Even before the ownership takeover was completed last year it was reported that Clearlake's focus would be on building a young squad capable of being competitive. Last summer they went against their youth ideology with the signings of Sterling, Koulibaly and Aubameyang to please Tuchel but once they saw where that got us they haven't looked back. Since the sporting directors were hired the plan has been quite clear.

It's a numbers game to try and save the club some money. Look to buy many youngsters on speculative deals before they make their final breakthrough and then just bet on enough of them making it big and end up having gotten them much cheaper than already ready-made players would have cost. Even the ones who aren't quite good enough for us can still potentially be sold for decent money a few years in to recoup some of the money spent on signing them.

It's a bit risky and only time will tell how it goes. I personally haven't rated Poch that highly as a manager but for a project like this he can be a good choice. Even if he doesn't bring in the trophies, just having him develop this young squad for a couple of years could be beneficial for the club in the long run.
