Boga is one of the best dribblers about. Low centre of gravity and the ball just sticks to his feet. Him cutting in from the left with Digne overlapping would be lovely.

Just 2 things on this possible Tomori deal:
1. Has anyone thought we should try and get an option to buy him at the end of the deal, in case he turns out to be good? I personally think this would be an excellent idea; and
2. Even if we didn't do that, people seem to be forgetting that we are going to be super amazing next year and Tomori will probably be pushing for a move to the Mighty Ev even if Fat Frank doesn't want to sell him.

I don't dispute that part of it. What I worry about is where the ball goes at the end of the dribbles. Last season it was the net, but that's a big outlier on his career thus far and from watching some of the highlights it looks down to a hot finishing streak more than anything.

Should have gone for Watkins of Brentford, a proper goalscorer. Villa snapped him up.

No thanks. We need level of James and Allan signings.

33 million is a lot to snap at for a position we’re not desperate for

Yeah but he’s also pretty terrible at everything else too...so there’s that
I don't think we need worry about a loan for Tomori without the buy option.
We do have two very good young players who maybe are just not ready yet for the first team. The loan for Tomori will give them a chance to develop.

It really was a sackable act giving Matty Penn a new contract. Od course he was going to grab it with 2 hands. Very very average player.

My guess is GIbson goes on loan but Branthwaite stays with the squad (training w/ first team, playing w/U23s) until at least Jan.
Mina will have two years left on his contract next year (right?) so then next summer we assess whether Mina should be sold or get a new deal, if Gibson and/or Branthwaite are ready, and if Tomori is too good not to try and sign.
We'll have plenty of options though.
£28m for one good season in the Championship, for a player that wouldn't start for us over Calvert-Lewin or Richarlison.

At that price that's why we have spent so much doe and got worse over the years

And signing them to sensible contracts (2-3 years with options not 5 years on a zillion quid).This is like the 2017 madness all over again... only we're actually playing reasonable prices for decent players this time around
Absolute lunacy if we manage to pull more of these signings off though!

Bit dear, though. £28M + bonuses, wowsers.
