He was an exciting prospect but his development has stalled somewhat in the last couple of seasons.
Of course he does.
Yeah well even I could have written that, hardly an 'exclusive'

I checked his stats out and he looks kind of rubbish by that measure.
I stay!
This means nothing tbh.
This shows whats wrong with our club. He has been looking for a move since start of the season and we thought about it only last week?
Yeah I wish we could make all our transfer decisions with 4 years of hindsight.
The timing of our interest means bugger all, he was always going to Real over us if he was to leave Spurs.
Then why did we speak to his agent. Point is we don't have a plan on how to approach things .

Winning Champs League with three different clubs?
Whenever I see things like this you have to wonder. It's not as if he's an unknown quantity and therefore requires extensive scouting. If they haven't conducted the requisite scouting on this guy by now then I've lost all hope in our scouting team.
Yep. What benefit will they get from one live match? If he has a stinker, is he ruled out forever? Likewise, if he dominates and scores a goal, do we put a bid in?
The scout will probably be there for Barella.
It's just another part of our golden chain of transfer procedure. There's about 50 steps to completing a transfer....preparing a bid is just the third of those."Set to scout" after being linked with him for two years
They're only going by Caf rules, our scouts. If you play bad, you're crap; if you play well, well, you're Declan Rice.
I can see it, I can, honestly, Ronaldo coming back to play with likes Lingard and Lukaku and then some. Yeah, that is what he wanted his whole life.
Given our recent form, one scout will say he’s great and we should buy him and another scout will say he’s Raul Albiol.
United sent scouts to watch him play, but the scouts ended up in Ecuador to watch Barcelona S.C..
United scouts set to turn on PS4 to scout Napoli's Senegalese International CB Koulibaly on FIFA19.
He is 31 going 32 this year though, over the top etc.
Is there much point in scouting a player 200 times these days or is it just to let him and his entourage know we're seriously considering him as an option so get in touch...
I don't think I've watched a full game involving him but is he really as good as people say he is or is it people just looking at FIFA rankings and deciding he's world class?

4/5 serious offers...as opposed to...
Reckon he'll be on his way to America with Valencia. Doubt he'll play every game for any club in any of the top leagues now.
Don't have a clue mate, barely watched any Napoli games.
Another "something might happen unless it won't" story
That's what I'm worried about...Don't have a clue mate, barely watched any Napoli games.
It's silly season and these blokes have to get clicks somehow.
The fact that we're offering him a deal, along with Young, Jones etc leads me to believe we won't be doing a whole lot of business this summer. You can only register a 25 man squad plus homegrown players etc, so we're not leaving much room unless there will be unexpected sales.
