January window….

He signed in the mid nineties

 

TBF Barcelona have made their own problems. They have negotiated some sh*t contracts and now are paying the price. Barcelona don't need to pay players £400k a week to come and play for them. Just a terribly run club.

And I agree, at the end of the day he's miles better than anyone we currently have of we got a tune out of him.

 

They need to build the clubs profile internationally, so a big signing will help with that. It would make them money if they can get a few fans buying shirts etc abroad.. It's not always just about the football.

Man united are keen i don't really think he'll come but if it happens it's a huge statement and it'll help promote the brand.

 

They don’t need to do that right now. They need good players then can raise a profile in the summer.

 

Why not? Dembele is a very good player.. We've currently got Fraser

 

If we could get him now though why not? Surely we'd have more chance of staying up. He'd literally mug half the defenses in the prem right off.

 

Indeed...it's highly unlikely we can get him, so if they get the chance then go for it.

 

Imagine seeing his name on our team sheet

 

Lift off is coming isn't it?

 

Tash would have stumps for hands

 

even Edwards is saying 2 incoming before Leeds so it’s on like donkey Kong

 

The sooner we get a big name that drives a nail into the hearts of the makems the better

 

That Colombian dude looks class

 

Assuming Howe gets this cb then surely performances should be improved? That will be 57 ms he's had.

Personally I think nothing will improve unless they drop lacelles and bring in a cm and a good striker

 

Can I just confirm - you didn’t actually say “yay” did you Charlie? That was internet shortcut to illustrate your mood.

if you did say “yay” then I’m starting a thread on it

 

You said anyone we've had in the last 25 years, not anyone we've signed in the last 25 years.

All we really know about Dembele is Barca signed him for a fortune and he's been a disaster.

 

He scored for them just the other day...

He's a class player.... If you're 19th with Fraser and Murphy getting games?

 

I looked at his Prem scoring record with optimism when he signed, thinking yes he can cover for Wilson....although upon observing him on Saturday, he seems more Albert Luque than Wilson.
