I have my doubts over mvila too but he was out because of injury, what's this benfica guys excuse? We shouldn't be spending 15mil on a prospect that doesn't strengthen our starting 11
Benfica have apparently sold there 20 year old DM to an unnamed English club, believed to be us or Chelsea, for £16m (or more likely Euro).
To be honest, I'm glad we're not signing anyone, cost benefit analysis lead to more people we sign, the more Bic pens we end up using, they're bloody expensive! So, no signings, equals massive savings on our trips to Staples!
Andre Gomes. He has only played for Benfice 9 or 10 times, mainly as a sub. But he has had Matic in his position ahead of him and he is only 20.
BREAKING : #PSG assistant sporting director Olivier Létang is in Newcastle today to finalize the deal for Yohan #Cabaye. #NUFC want 25Mâ¬. will that make them another team in for the same type of player as us but with obviously more money to spend?
Reported Benfica have agreed to sell Andre Gomes to Liverpool for £12.4 million. Reported as being a box to box midfielder with excellent technical ability.
Never heard of him, but even though we've made some dubious signings I'll trust the transfer committee. At least they've identified the position we need strengthening which is encouraging.
Not heard of him either but apparently he's a young lad - would rather we have someone slightly older and more experienced.
Rory Smith from The Times says that we definitely have an interest in Saul Niguez. Disappointing that we went from Fernando, M'Vila, Matuidi to Niguez and Gomes. Will reserve judgement on the committee until 1st Feb but it's not looking good lads.
