    Duran can't be that well known, you didn't even bother to spell his name properly

    He only makes 10 mins sub appearances tbf, he was highly rated and it was hardly just us after him.

    I'd never heard of him either before we signed him, and his stats aren't good.....just wish we could actually see him properly to judge him.

    I was shocked we were in for him to be honest

    he was hopeless at Sheff U when they went down, going out to sign him for such a fee seemed bonkers.

    I refuse to believe there's no one in the lower divisions who are showing equal promise for half the price.

    Yet to be convinced by his reputation.

    All these suits in football are grifters hoping their copy and paste money ball approach works out

    Last fella signed Sandro Tonali for 70m, doesn't take a football genius does it.

    Then we watch the Euros and try and sign Guehi for just shy of 60m. Come on. Trying to tell me there's indepth stats and **** involved in this? Grifters man, every company has em, footballs no different.

    You go to Sheff Utd likely trying to sign the other lad who was playing well and walk away being swindled of 15m.

    Tonali is such a tidy player, a clean player, so good technically.

    Reminded me of Pirlo the way he played tonight, was everywhere, passing was accurate all the time.. just constantly kept the teams engine running. Such a slick player, quality.

    Tonali is I think the best quality in terms of technical ability we have ever had.

    He’s getting match fit and I think I he’s possibly the best player we have had for decades.

    Italians say he’s their best quality player and that absolutely true. We have an absolute diamond.

    His gambling is an unfortunate stain on him. But he needs to now deliver on his promise.

    I think he’s one of the worlds best midfielders and I think he is better than Bruno.
