Brands on Lozano and Bergwijn

[Tubey]

The fact he's answered the question and acknowledged two specific players pretty much means we're in for at least one of them and these public comments are a negotiation tactic.

I love the comment about Keita and think he’s bang on in his assessment, and also very clever appealing to the players in that way.

Forza Marcel!

Imagine Brands had been in charge of the money that Walsh threw away

He would have fired Koeman on the spot

 

[maccavennie]

Brandalf working his magic

 

[Frang]

He would have fired Koeman on the spot

He's already fired him once from psv

 

[Connor]

Now, if he just come out and say he's got zero in either Vardy or Deeney, that'd be great

"If Lozano would cost €20m, I would consider it, but at higher amounts we look at players who have already proven it in the Premier League or in another big league."

This is almost specifically saying "We don't want another Klaassen".

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

He was till we showed Silva a bit of leg and he got a stiffy and got sacked

Don’t know about that mate, after a good start Richarlison fell away well before we started showing interest in Silva, at one point under Silva he wasn’t even starting games.

Sandro, Funes Mori, Niasse etc.

I’d like to hear his opinion on the deal we signed Bolaise on.

I think Richarlison was a Silva requested buy, so far proved good value, moving forward I hope he picks up other gems like Digne and Gomes.

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

The Dutch leagues flatter to decieve at the best of times, we should all be aware of that after Klaassen.... Structural milestone transfer for me!

.... Is right. Also the Dutch clubs know full well that 30m is a relative pittance for an established English PL club so they're trying to screw us over well above market value for their players; as promising as they may be...... Marcel knows the score.

He had played something like 12/14 months without a break

He would have to write his answer down for you
I’ve heard he gets a bit of vomit in the back of his throat every time he thinks of that deal

I'm used to managers refusing to comment on players playing for other clubs, so it's interesting to hear him talk so openly about these 2.
