But Mourinho doesn't invest in youth, right, RIGHT?

Chuffed, seems like a good player and hopefully will form a solid partnership with Bailly for years to come.

Assuming he was no 1 target on Mourinho defender wish list ahead of Keane and van dijk?
You just know the scousers will sign Keane now and say they snatched him from us

Its great to see that his natural position is on the left side of the centreback duo.

Somewhere in Portugal/Holland, LVG is slowly unzipping his pants and nodding his head in approval.

Heard and read good things about him. Plus, Mourinho's record with defenders is largely impressive. If this guy is anything like Bailly, we'll do fine. Fantastic price as well - £30million is a bargain for a quality defender these days.

Team is shaping up. He's also tasted league titles which is what we need - winning mentalities.

Yeah, I'm surprised. I still won't trust Portuguese media though after Gaitan and Garay.

Welcome, Lindelof.
Wanted to tag you, because you didn't believe it at all! :D

Good signing, I think.

Haven't seen him play but from what I read he'll compliment Bailly. Very young both of them, hope they can develop a good partnership for years to come.
On to Morata Belotti and Fabinho now.

I wonder who will get to play on the right out of him and Bailly. Both seem to prefer that side.

Or maybe it will be three at back with Rojo/Blind/Darmian on the left.

Anyway if this means the end of Jones then great.

Wow! Great stuff!!

Haven't even realized it's that close.
Can't believe we actually signed a player from Benfica. :D
Best part is everybody is happy with the price.
