Confirmed Signing Cuco Martina

[evilwebby]

This is not a high profile signing, but it is much needed considering our lack of cover in FB positions at the moment. Welcome Cuco.

Three years is the only surprise for me. Seems excessive.

Sell him to the Championship next year if needed and get a fee.... good business!

Other than obvious cover, the upside is that if we sell him next summer (after he hopefully has a half reasonable season) we might get £5m for him and that's +£5m in the eyes of the STCC and FFP.

Agree with Koeman. A player that can play in different positions.

Right back and the bench.

He can play in the reserves too. Versatile.

 

[Clive Warren]

I'm sure the top 6 fear us now.

Can I hate on him already or is it too soon ?

Sunderland will give us abar £5m

Too soon mate, wait until he's played 17 minutes against FC Twente on Wednesday and you'll be well within your right to boo the life out of him

 

[Kal El]

This is great an all.... but what number is he going to wear??

The kids need to know!!

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I hear he's going on loan to Anderlecht with Onyekuru. Future Arsenal double swoop?

 

[wainy]

Haven't been this happy with a signing since kanchelskis.

If he makes more than 8 to 10 appearances this season, something has gone badly wrong - as in Coleman is really goosed long term or Kenny is awful.

The signing makes sense to me, but I hope he barely gets a game.

 

[Mozza1987]

I just don't see why he was needed when we have Coleman when back fit, Holgate who can step in and Kenny. We are more desperate for a LB.
