what do we know about gakpo. 1. mancs are raging. (only need look at Diego above) 2. he's 6 foot 3 inches so a bit of a tank. 3. he's quick supposedly. 4. vvd says he is nice lad. 5. he has captained his side so not a complete moron... which is nice. 6. has scored in Europe and on international scene. anything else?
For months now we have had the will he won’t he saga of Jude Bellingham. My thoughts are we probably won’t get him, he is good but not as good as the hype. If was a straight transfer where he wanted to play for us and the money was right I would have him. But months of agents and family leaking this and that to the media has really turned me off him.
I've no idea who's putting the stuff out as it's got a life of its own given the clubs involved. the Internet wannabes and click needy don't need anyone to feed them stories to keep publishing anything. I do know that in these cases management of players need to ensure their player is the hottest property going. gakpo's agent has been at it for 18months. what sold the player wasn't that though was it? it's what he did on the park. Bellingham has carried England and carried dortmund for 12months. his performances speak for themselves and that is why psg, real, city, CHELSEA and even lfc would like to sign him. I'm fairly sure the latest goal ****e came straight from real via marca. Bellingham prefers real. before that Bellingham perfers City. now it's Bellingham will sit with dortmund and talk this January.
I agree. It is the way of the world with players and agents in the social media era. It is best to ignore all of it but when it’s your club and exciting prospective players, it is hard to completely ignore it. I liked the way the club concluded the Cody Gakpo saga, straight in and done. If we could get a couple of decent young midfielders now I think the rest of the season would be great
