Lucas Silva
- Thread starter Flamingo Purple
- Start date
No but he'd qualify for a work permit through special talent ruling I'd imagine.
It's not even that, he made two posts like this because nobody's bitten this shite.
I watched him a few times in the Brasilian league, I like him. I would be happy if he came to us, a little rough around the edges but nothing van Gaal can't fix. He can provide depth and quality to our dire midfield.
Nothing on the Sky website so far in relation to this so far ? Odd.
Never seen him play.
Sign him up.
Sign him up.
feck it get em all in. We need anyone.
if his idol wasn't ginger prince then I don't know who. Nevertheless he looks more defensive-minded so a mix of Scholes and Colback.. looks as a world clas CDM prospect for me, according to that video. Great passing range, positioning vision and tackling abilities, also very comfortable on the ball. He is exactly the type of player we are looking for. He will boss it anywhere he will go...
Colback ?
He seems like the exact type of player we need next to Herrera, strong in the tackle, mobile with a good passing range. Seems highly rated in Brazil so maybe the YouTube video isn't too flattering.
anyway the only reason we are linked to him is that we are simply desperate to get some CM for a while..
I like his name! Sign him up!
Get your passport out Woody
Get your passport out Woody
was just kidding I only used him as an example of defensive minded midfielder who can tackle because I started my post with ginger and that was because his passing looked like scholesys
at first I thought we are after Lucas Leiva
Sounds ideal.
He has two functional legs, a heartbeat and plays in CM? What's not to like?
Never seen him play, he's a cm though so I'm in.
Pretty much of the opinion of everyone else, never seen him (though have seen his name pop up before), but he's a deep lying playmaker from Brazil so has to be talented, sign him up.
All the truly great brazilians only have one name. Not interested in any with two
Roberto Carlos?
I prefered cafu
Edson Arantes do Nascimento says hi.
Most Brazilian name ever?
One of the best young midfield world talents, defensive midfielder with a good passing range and ability to get up and down.....Never seen him play, that was what he was liek for me on football manager though for Utd
And Roberto Carlos ?
Roberto Carlos? Thiago Silva? Nilton Santos? I have trust.
I've bet on Cruzeiro many times and know they are the best team in Brazil at the moment, so he must be quite good!
I see your three and raise you Fred, Jo and Hulk. Beat that
Wow. You really proved me wrong
In.
I've watched him a decent amount of times, and I can say he is good. I don't know about United good, but we have Fletcher so..
Cue him signing for Porto for £2m then us bidding £30m for him next summer.
Chelsea is out, City is out. It could come down to Spurs vs United if he decides to move to England.
Any other sources other than Sky Sports linking him to us?
How come?
Fabregas, Matic, Ramires, Mikel and Van Ginkel are all playing for two positions. I doubt they will want another young central midfielder. City also have a wealth of options this season. Toure, Lampard, Fernando, Fernandinho and Zuculini. Milner can fill in as well. Actually I didn't know they sent back Zuculini on loan. Maybe City have a chance.
I've never heard of him but I think we should buy him. Easy.
Chelsea didn't really need Van Ginkel when they spent 8 million pounds on him...City the same with Rodwell
Just because they're well stocked in a position doesn't mean either team won't spent lots of money to ruin a young lad's career
