January window….

I'm thinking something like Schick to Arsenal for around £60m and Juve to sell Dybala to Man U for around £50m to fund the move for Vlahovic.

Neither have anything to do with us, mind. We've had a good relationship with Lyon over the years, so this does have legs and he's the perfect player, proper DM with a pass on him. We need to get one of these in to topple the rest. If you sign someone like Guimares, Lingard will buy his own contract out. If both turn up, there'll be a queue of players and one of these CB's or more will arrive. I think Botman at about £35m is still likely, but would depend on Guimares coming.

 

I don't think arsenal have the money for two big fees this week.. Juve? Don't see them being too keen to cough up more than they have this window.


Botman is close to Milan the story being he wanted to go there not newcastle which is understandable imo.

I'm sure newcastle will pull out a few surprises this week

 

I think the striker bid for the lad at benfica will come

 

Is this the Brazilian lad from Lyon? Absolute mustard! Him and King Joe roaming the center of the park at SJP would be a wet dream on a fortnightly basis!

The lad can tackle, can dribble, play a pass through the eye of a needle, great touch, fast feet, has a bit of flair, loves the physical side of the game. He has all the attributes to be a beast in the EPL.

 

This isn't happening is it.

 

On the wrong thread
And it did happen

 

Bruno Guimaraes - When was the last time we had a proper CDM?

Tiote? RIP.

 

Joelinton

 

No. Just no. He's not a primarily defensive player.

 

He's doing great in that position and was dire in attack. So he clearly is.

 

Hmmmm

£15m does seem extortionate for 4 months.

 

Deal agreed for Bruno. Having his medical today according to Downie.

 

How do you do GIFs in here?!?! Quick!?!

 

Holy ****. This would be an amazing signing

 

Sky reporting it’s a done deal. Hell of a signing if it happens

 

Upload file. File has to be less than 2mb.

 

He's not playing DM, he's the LCM in a 3 man CM trio.

He's not dire in attack, can keep possession while and distribute it well and bring others into play. His finishing is awful.

Hes a LCM, not DM.

 

Definitely LCM. Reasonably skillful and creative, powerful, good passing, decent ball retention, not slow. Looks great playing there. Bruno alongside him in the DCM berth... Starting to look tasty.

 

This is lift off.

Strap yourselves in lads we're going for a ride
