I have a feeling its a bit more than that. Obviously he will want players who will fit his system etc but I think a "big" signing is intent and sends a message. We have been a feck up for a bit now and not in CL etc so we can't really use that as "bait" for signings. So signing a Barca player shows we mean business.It seems EtH wants both De Jong and Eriksen before moving on to other signings.
Views them as key to how he wants to play. Thoughts?
I feel maybe that first big signing will lead to a domino effect in terms of other signings falling into place. And quickly.
That's just my feelings/musings. For me likes of Pogba leaving on a free would maybe put doubt in a players mind. We can say Pogba was rubbish etc but he is a big name and known around the world. With. Other leaks and how we have been run and played I think intent is our only real weapon left in terms of enticing players to a "project".
