    Yes for the right price. 20m touted is too much but something like 12m would be a decent deal, think he’d be a better impact sub than Costa so got to be worth at punt but very much price dependent.

    They were talking about that on Sky Sports. Also the ex ref Gallagher said Barnes should have been sent off for the Dallas tackle.(sorry for going off thread)<ok>

    A big fat yes from me.

    Very unlikely to happen though as he's started 2 of the scums 3 games so far this season.

    Would have thought Lingard would be the one to leave but probably too much of a knob for Bielsa to be interested. I'd take a gamble on him though as he's the type of goalscoring attacking player we need.

    It's a no from me, with have bigger issues than on the wing, a quality midfielder is priority for me actually 2, We have no other cover for Firpo than Dallas, which weakens the midfield when he's out, we have no one in there who can deliver that bit of magic when required. Plus James is no better than what we have, the only reason to go with this would be to put him on the right and move Raphinha into the 10 but £20m+ is taking the piss.

    Dan James for around 7 or 8 million? Yes.

    Is he better than anyone in our first team XI? No.

    Spend it on a midfielder to play with Phillips.

    Manure boardroom

    Right Ole, we've just spent £50m on Ronnie, who can we get rid of to bring some wedge in.

    Non, I want to keep them all, injuries, suspensions and covid I need a big squad.

    What about James, fans loathe him.

    OK, but no less than £20m .

    Right then,looks like we're keeping him.

    Yes because he's better than Costa.
    but as most on here say I would prefer a Midfielder
    can I be greedy and ask for both?
    One thing I don't want to see though is if he does come in pls don't loan out Costa. either sell him or keep him as backup.

    Bugger.

    Don't know why you lot don't want an uprgrade on what we had last season.

    Now we are minus Poveda, Alioski & Hernadez on the attacking front with no replacements...oh I forgot the world beating U23's that are going to smash it but never get on the pitch because Bielsa is an idiot.

    Waste of money if we get him.

    I'd rather have Kent for the same money. Or even O'Brien for half the money (and I haven't even seen him play)
