Welcome to the forum, that’s a long old lurk you’ve been doing!! Seen very little of GLC live but from what I can tell he’s a bit of an all rounder - seems to have a healthy dose of Lamela’s abrasiveness, and a creative streak too. He scored a fair few goals last season for Betis I think, but he’s more of an playmaker than someone like Alli. I think he’d fit us well and is a better signing for us than Fernandes.
It'll be a good lesson and experience for the club in the long run. We've had challenges with 3rd party ownership in the past but never - iirc - complications due to image rights. This is what you get when dealing with A-list players and if we are to make that step up to a totally new bracket of transfer target, we'll have to learn how to navigate this new set of challenges.
The Wail reported a £14m bid, but we told them we want at least double that By the way, how's the Mirror's lunchtime headline of our move for Sessegnon hitting a snag working out?
Sup Sonny! That's one long lurk you've been doing. Doubt any of us can truly say they've seen enough of Lo Celso but he does look like a typical Poch player in terms of having the right mix of skill, flair and hard work. I'm looking forward to him partnering Ndombele in the middle, possibly Sissoko too if we go 433.
