I wrote that confusingly but that's what I meant ha, the graphic showed O'Brien as the starting RB and I disagree

The fact we thought we had Tete wrapped up makes me think we are.

Be shocked if they're looking for a RB that isn't a starter over O'Brien. Edit: same goes for starter CM over Garner too actually

Be quite a prospect to get in. I like it

Fair shout mate, it's why I was perfectly happy years back when we went for Garner as I thought he could end up a tremendous player for us.

Of course. But if you want to avoid that concern then you're locking yourself I to waiting til they've proven it at another club and are worth 60m. Players like him who will be at minimum be 'okay' but have a huge potential upside are who we...

100%. Said it before in this thread, I think in 3 years time Hackney would be looked back at as a much much better signing. Fits next to Gana stylistically perfectly for this year too

Never mid waiting for Luiz to make up his mind just go and buy Hackney from Middlesbrough, a very good footballer a wonderful passer of the ball. scores goals and would be a lot cheaper, leaving more money to buy other players.

Great stuff for useless transfer bingo in this one, for those playing along. We've got: 'launch an enquiry' 'sound out a potential move' 'being considered' 'high on [their] radar' 'made contact with' 'considering a bid' 'under consideration'...

And yet usually people get shirty on here when someone suggests buying players of 28 and up for high fees is a bad idea - assets maintaining value is soooo important for a club in our position

You're not wrong but one player being worth a lot of money doesn't really have any bearing on whether another one is. Pickford was worth it, I dont think McAtee would be

It feels like a transfer tax just because he’s played for City.

35m for McAtee feels way too high

I got pretty excited about the Hackney and Jashari links. Those feel exactly like the young passing midfielders that would be a great fit for us now with the potential to get better. Both City and Sheffield on there. He's a weird one for me...

In fairness, if it is then he hasn't done any of it for the last two years. Which would make it a pretty huge gamble to buy him to do that. Progressive passes and carries are the relevant two metrics here: And for this last one you want to...
