Transfer Rumours Let's ignore the big ****ing elephant and blame the latest manager, again. Are we nearly there yet?

Sounds like we are in for Lucien Agoume of Sevilla as an (much cheaper and reasonable) alternative to Baleba.

I don't know much, obviously, but he sounds like what we need, albeit with none of the experience that Baleba has in the premier league. Can learn from Casemiro and be integrated into the side, alongside Mainoo etc.

The surplus striker issue, I reckon the one that's surplus to requirements now is Zirkzee, not Hojlund. I don't see where Zirkzee gets into the side now, but Hojlund is still a useful bench number nine and can fill in for Sesko when required.

 

Yup! Ugarte was awful on Sunday in the few minutes that he got. He persistently made poor decisions. This is why we are in the market for a decent defensive midfielder. We need someone with really good football IQ like Casemiro.
