Mascherano was only 5 foot 7, put spent most his career playing CB.

He was 5’9, same as Cannavaro who was the last defender to win a Ballon D’or iirc. Definitely can be done but as I mentioned, takes a very special player to be a quality CB when you’re quite short.

We were both wrong...

Maybe - although the rumours were that Celta Vigo were keen on him also. It seems a bit of an underwhelming move for him

it’s an agent driven one for sure. Take him to a club he will want / need to move from again in 12-24 months. More money from sign ons etc

explains why he’s been touted around everywhere as well. Possibly all agent noise
 
Still after two strikers and a experienced midfielder.

We must reduce the size of the squad..will be movement after Monday when team back in the UK.
Wonder who they have their eye on for midfield. Sounds like someone will be leaving in some capacity next week

Thought we'd see movement after they return from the states. Be interesting who moves on, either through a loan deal or perminant
 
Happy Frigan has gone somewhere as it puts an end to the Saga.

hope we sign another striker like. Or two. Surely we don’t repeat the same mistakes as last season.

mayenda to come in as the prodigy and a ready made starter to come in please. Like the look of that Daniele Montevago who was mentioned earlier in the thread.

If Sunderland had really wanted him I reckon we'd have been able to make a better offer tbh ...

... plus the prospect of the PL next season.

Perhaps he's content to be a happy fish in a little pool.

Selling club desperate for money trying to squeeze more out of us, will probably get ironed out given he’s been over already and apparently had pictures taken etc
Is it not the case his club is getting taken over?

True, could always be trying for as much money as possible anyway? I think he will still join, is meant to have been massively impressed by the set up here
