13 goals in 22 games this season.
That's incredible for any non-striker.

I would prefer it to be a loan with an option to buy, then maybe we will not use the option as Maddison or Grealish would become available...
I've seen Bruno live this season against RBK. i was visiting friends in Trondheim so took the opportunity to watch an EL game. Pretty dominant performance by Bruno Fernandes, scored the 2nd goal.
RBK is such a bad team though compared to the PL counterparts so I'm not sure you can take so much from it.

Yes, more than any of our strikers. Add to that 12 assists also.
We could've done with that productivity in the first half of the season.
Back to is he better than what we have?
Probably, but it's fun while it lasts.
Before transfer deadline day!!!!!
We've got a long wait for this and it seems no one else coming along.
Even if the deal is agreed this week don't expect it to be announced until next monday. Reckon Ed will want something to take the heat off the result of Sunday's game.

Thinking about conspiracy theories, we'l have Liverpool soon and that's likely to be a defeat that will send the online fan base in the typical meltdown. Announcing a deal then might be the best thing to do for the mental health of some of our more emotional fans.

Classic cover all bases shite from him. Ban him.
Wasn’t Ducker considered to be fairly reliable, not so long ago? Or have I made that up?
Last year he had almost 30 goals and 20 assists in 48 appearances, he's been one of the most productive playmakers in Europe over the last 2 years since joining Sporting.
His age at 25 makes him an exciting target given that he has the potential to get even better.
Really hope we manage to seal this, I remember Spurs and Scouser fans being quite excited over him when he was linked with them last summer.
Ready to firm up interest...
Could be. I've no idea whether they're actually interested in Rojo, though. But if they are, and the deal as such hinges on his wage demands - then I suppose we just have to pay a slice of 'em, yes.
Rojo belongs to a certain category of player we have too many of, i.e. players who should be moved on but who are on wages most realistic buying clubs will be very reluctant to match. Our own fault for putting ourselves in that position - but it is what it is.
Put it like this: if Bruno is worth pursuing as such, he's probably worth an extra slice of cash (to make up for Rojo's demands) too. We're not talking about insane amounts here - Bruno is supposedly on something like 50k p/w (he's their best paid player), so we can very comfortably upgrade that significantly and still dish out what's required for a (possible) partly subsidized Rojo deal without going broke.
He has a decent track record for the last couple of years.
Firmly.Do you have your hand ready?
Doesn’t he have a buy-out clause?
All rght, everybody stay calm.
The big clubs from Portugal have amazing connections to European journos. Time and time again drumming up fake interest in their mediocre players.
Cocks out?
Signed a new deal recently.
Jesus, what a tease. Does that mean anything even?
what does he mean, nobody followed up with a question in comments?
Is that a yes?
Would be funny if this was all media rubbish..again.
*unzips*
I remember the days when the club would announce a transfer completely out the blue. Now you have to put up with a stream of tedious non-stories saying the same thing over and over through an agonizing wait for any kind of official confirmation. This will rumble on until the end of the month.
Think he signed a new contract at the summer. One that got rid of the whole being paid every time a bid fell short thing.
I think it's just because he says 'here we go' on his tweets when announcing ... People think it's a transfer hint.
So anyway who are we buying off Sporting in four years that we can loan him back to them as part of the deal?
hmm.. Rojo's burnt toast?
Clears the path for Pogba's departure.
Sorry, I’m still unclear, is it believed to contain a release clause?
I thought it was mandatory in Portugal to have one, no? Or is that just Spain?
