Honestly, we didnt really need a Sancho, and a lot of people made that point at the end of last season. Greenwood has been performing at a high level since the lockdown and now we have signed two players that can challenge and eventually take the right wing slot from him once he becomes a striker again. Even better than that, for two years, he has Cavani to work with, who will help him in the areas he struggles in to play the no 9 role. Cavani, who will compete with Martial and help us get more goals front the no.9 role as I can see both him and Martial getting us 15-20 goals each.Yeah, it will be a disaster if he repeats what he did in his first proper season for us
When people calm down from the hysteria of not getting Sancho, they will realise that this was a good window for us.
Any move we make on a centre back will need us to know how well Mengi and Tuanzebe can perform at the club.
Any move for a DM will need us to sort out Pogba once and for all. In addition, both Matic and Fred can play the position for this year, and in easier games, i am sure VDB can cover that position too.
The way people talk about the PL you wouldn't believe the likes of Bernardo, Silva, etc, do just fine with the physicality despite being slightly built themselves. The kid will be fine. If he's good enough, just like those other players, he'll find a way to be productive.
Agreed re Tuanzebe, feels a bit of a waste getting someone else in when he's barely played. He's generally looked OK when he has as well.
Will admit you make some very valid points but signing a CB leader & DM have to be top priority next summer,don't expect us to do anything in January unless a top drawer RW option pops up out of nowhere
Good to see a little bit of common sense.
Just would have been nice to finally get a proper RW after years of waiting
Yeh I thought the same. Not a bad player to be likened to I guess.
Did Pellistri disappear into Woodward’s 2013 urgent transfer business plane or something? I’m surprised he wasn’t announced before Cavani.
Where the feck is Pelli?
For £8M who gives a feck? If it works great, if not we'll probably get most of the money back when we sell him.
Being announced now
Jim White on SSN just said we might have one player left to announce....
Youth player same as Willy earlier not worthy of an announcement
Up to this season, Maguire has been considered a decent pick up for us. A few bad games after a bad experience where he nearly went to jail should not change that. He is still a really good defender and people have judged him harshly. Last season, he literally had to play the role as the lone defender, as lindelof is so passive that Maguire had to cover everything. He also takes on the responsibility of being our leader in bringing the ball out of the back 4, Lindelof and Bailly shy away from that and force Maguire to be the lone active force there. All this season has shown us is how bad the backline would look if Maguire and AWB are off form and highlights the defensive weaknesses of Lindelof, Bailly and Shaw. It's a bit like the Pogba situation before Bruno ( even though he does deserve criticism). He's the best player and is forced to do so much because his teammates are caught lacking. He is expected to perform perfectly and is barely creditied when he does so. So when he does make mistakes or is off form, people jump on his back and slaughter him for all of his own inadequacies without reflecting on how much he offers us.

SSN about to announce it.
He will get one
How much? I thought we couldn't afford 120 because of covid? we've already spent 110 without this one.
Is this the one they are about to announce, and Sky are hyping up?
Well yeah, can't be anyone else really
Some are milking it, Sancho, Sarr or Dembele?
Redknapp is trying to make it exciting. He's pretty much slated every deal done today, this coming from the guy who used to sign the biggest load of crap going on deadline day.
Always onto a winner when the wheeler dealer himself talks up a transfer
Let's hope he's better than his YouTube vids might suggest
Can only say Redknapp probably disappointed no one has signed Kranjcar
Hilarious. Like we’d be able to get a penny if we wanted to sell!
Dembele on loan hopefully...Some are milking it, Sancho, Sarr or Dembele?
How'd you work them figures out??
Are Sky trying to hype this as a mystery transfer in the age of internet and social media?
Hope we actually get to see him or will he disappear into the u23s and become an afterthought that never makes it here and we will then struggle to sell him down the line.
Maybe he is one of these that looks meh on youtube but an entirely different prospect in proper games
Will he come into the first team?
We got money for Darmian after he'd played like 5 games in 2 seasons, Sevilla or Valencia would stump up £5M for a young South American talent, unless he's utter dogshit of course.
Still nothing in official sources...
Checked Chilevision?
Facs sake
This could all be a lie from Uruguay media.
I can tell this guy doesn’t have star power based on his name. Reserve team written all over him.
Wrong channel, you need Uruguayview for this one.
