I'm with you mate. Diakite linked to bournemouth shouldn't really make any difference but it does mentally. Just got to hope and trust we get similar breaking news soon. Just think, half an hour ago Bournemouth fans were thinking they were desperate for a centre back now that theyre selling Zubarnyi and already sold Huijsen, and then bang out of nowhere theyre in advanced talks. it will be us next.
Amad is not for sale apparently, they want 50 for Garnacho and they rate Amad higher Hate to burst the bubble but Amad is not coming back
Gutted about Diakite. Think he's superb. I do wonder if we'll get one in before West Ham. Ideally I would want one to play one of the games this weekend but that's very unlikely now.
Unfortunately yes. Any idea of Amad coming back is a pipe dream. He's their best player, pretty much.
There is a perfectly plausible scenario where we want Lucumi and Bade. And Bade is injured so no rush. And Lucumi is waiting for Bologna to sign his replacement. But there's also a plausible scenario where its Japhet Tanganga coming in on 30th August
The way I see it we’re linked with just about everybody, there’s no way we could buy them all, so just chill the centre half’s will come, and they’re probably not even named on here or by a journalist yet imho
Bournemouth have the advantage of getting a lot of money for one of their CBs they’ve sold. It happens. Lucumi for us is more than adequate.
Akanji…. Actually Omerangic is a young Swiss defender who’s rated, and he plays for Montpellier who were relegated. Maybe him. Or Tapsoba or Kossonou from Bayer.
Aye outrageous pile of dollar sat there, but they play in a ****ing portakabin. Diakite is superb and would have e been levels for us.
