Confirmed Signing James Rodriguez

[Jim Hopper]

have we ever bought a player from Real before?

We loaned Drente from them, that’s about the only business I think we’ve done with them in terms of incomings from them.

So seems either a loan,3 year deal or 4 year deal lol

I don't really care if I'm honest. I'd prefer the security of a longer term contract but I'd happily take either as long as we get him over the doorstep.

He could make a real difference to us and I think the performances of Gomes, Bernard, Richarlison, Kean and Iwobi can all improve just from him being on the pitch. Imagine how much Gordon could learn from him too.

Also, just having a left footer in the attacking third gives us a completely new dimension to our play.

We sold Tommy to them if that helps.

Gonna book a day off and just see how many tugs I can have in one day when he signs.

Five and a half.

The Carlo affect...

Surely can’t be an obligation to buy, unless Real extend his contract, which would make no sense.

 

[Groucho]

It's very hard to get into a top team and he's not good enough that's why they want to get rid of him.

Let’s just go and get 11 Messi’s then.

Did they not loan us Mad Tommy G back for a while?

Think he was at Celtic when we loaned him back

I can see Richarlison loving this.

Possibly. I think all our forwards will benefit from his vision and ability,

 

[Furey1878]

Will be nice having a left footed technician in the midfield/forward line, will also be nice having someone who scores utter blammos.
