    Well if you could read instead of trying to be clever, someone text me about the same rumour going round months ago, I assumed it was BS then. ‘Assumed’

    had a text today when I posted CONFIRMING the fact it was BS

    clear difference but it’s not like you to argue for nothing

    FFS calm down, I was agreeing with you.

    You assumed it was rubbish, now you know it's rubbish ...

    ... although, I suppose it might not be rubbish as no one knows the truth.

    Unless he’s been tapped by a CL team mate, it will happen.

    I’m actually quite excited by Guiu purely because of his talent and that he’s a proper 9. A classic 9. Something we don’t have. Someone who thrives in the box

    Yeah it’s a bit odd. I’d say we’ve pulled out for whatever reason and they want media or the selling club are sticking the knife in. It doesn’t make sense at this point - they’ll have sounded the agent before anything. Either way I’m sure we have a plan so no stress.

    I did wonder if we would be interested in him, probably cost too much

    That's the problem isn't it ...

    ... the transfer window is a maelstrom of nonsense, rumours, agents, guesswork and clubs playing the media.

    None of us have a clue unless the club wants us to know, that's why we shouldn't take any of it too seriously.

    When the window closes, they're the facts ... until then it's all madness.

    Yeah I think he's great. Think he ends up playing as a 10/8 so I'm interested to see where whoever buys him plays him.

    That’s a ridiculous starting point.

    He’s shown little bits but nothing to show he’s exceptional yet.

    We can probably name 20 wingers who were going to be special and failed, or at best turned out ‘ok’ at best.

    Everton signed most of them <laugh>

    He’s definitely got a bit but starting at £27m is a hard no.

    I was really surprised you, and others, didn't seem keen tbh ...

    ... he's the level of player we wouldn't have a chance of signing permanently.

    I'd say he's better, at his age for our club, than Amad was at his.

    Tbf I’ve been interested in seeing if we would loan him for a few weeks. Felt like something up our street. I just would have preferred a buy option so when he inevitably goes back we aren’t heartbroken because we can’t get him back haha

    I just watched them Xhaka vids meeting the lads and such and he just looks alpha as **** doesn’t he.

    Strutting in full of confidence, just an air of presence about him.. He is going to be a beast for us.

    Nowhere near good enough, brings experience for sure but not good enough to start

    Been a great player but he’s been done for 2 years be suicide putting hopes on that kind of signing.
