Seems extremely unlikely we get both.
Is it still true that the loan window is open until later?
Looks like the club sounded out a number of options before pursuing Sabitzer.
Look at us moving like a club that wants to win
Get him in.
Transfermarkt is saying he is out of contract in 5 months. Wouldn’t we just buy him? Or are we truly that poor?
Sign. We need CMs.
I reckon Aouar and Kamada were alternatives to Sabitzer. We are hearing about them now as if they are additions to Sabitzer.
Very much this.
Hasn't really progressed much after showing great promise 3 years ago.
If we buy him, we will have to give him a new contract.
Came here to post exactly this. Once Sabitzer’s signed that’s our transfer business concluded.
Was highly rated once upon a time
Yeah won't have that playmaker for most of second half of season so will have to play a different way without Eriksen
I’d slot Bruno into Eriksen’s role and put Sabitzer in the 10 position.
I’m currently stood at the station and I’ve seen this train is approaching. Do I jump on?
Is it him or Fekir who is built of glass?
Surely this was the backup option? Is he any good?
Fekir.
Fekir get's injured regularly but it's hard to know if he just doesn't fancy playing or he's genuinely injured. Always has a bad knee I think.
Oh wow.
Why would they loan a player who is out of contract in 5 months? Clearly nothing in it.
That would be a bit mental as Sabitzer is decent defensively and composed in possession while Bruno is neither.
Nothing in this.
Probably nothing in it, but that won’t be due to the length of his contract. It’s irrelevant. If he stays they will need to pay him for the final 6 months of his contract, if they loan him, then we will. Either way he will be a free agent in the summer, but no reason why he has to spend the last 6 months at Lyon instead of here, theoretically.
This ain’t happening.
I would love this. His stock has majorly fallen but he has skills. From a 50/60 million quid player to getting him on basically a free would be excellent business.
Would take him. Still so much talent and was still pretty good last season.
Edit - Also Lyon have just signed a forward and a left winger and he's already not playing much so I can see him being available for cheap relative to ability

That mother Fekir.
I should’ve added I meant as an option in games we require a bit more of a playmaker from deep and Bruno has a better passing range, the majority of the time it would be the opposite way with Sabitzer as an 8 and Bruno as the 10.
Take him. Cheap, what's the worst that can happen?
Is this a go-er?

I think it’ll go to the final Aouar.
Definitely not time to do that
Has there been any real link or just 1 tweet?
Not happening.. no movement here.. no medical arranged.. no time left.
Think he wouldve been on the list before we decided to go for Sabitzer

Yeah my thoughts exactly
Looks like one of a number of midfielders we enquired about and/or were offered in the past 24 hours. Seems we decided that Sabitzer was our favourite of the available options. I do quite like Aouar but I think we made a sensible choice.
