Confirmed Signing Yerry Mina

[RomanReigns]

Believe Brands is flying out tomorrow for talks with Barca.

Bolasie, Schneiderlin, Keane, Besic, Davies, Jagielka and Sandro for Messi hopefully

It’s just a joke mate as he’s apparently flown over for talks about 300 times already this window. Stand down.

Just hope he signs for Man Utd and this thread can be closed forever. Fed up with him and his uncle. Dragging on for a month now.

Ain't coming end of -

It sounds like he’s not a great defender anyway.

We don't need to sign any more lazy players!!

If Lascalles is so lazy, why does Newcastle's defence fall apart when he goes off?

Mina to Man U. 5 year contract. €8.5m per year. Source: Mundo Deportivo.

Not coming here I'd say. But Barca taking the proverbial on the asking price. Didn't they sign him for something like €11m?
Scores two goal in the world cup and his value trebles. And......he's hardly even played for Barca, nor likely too.

Mina is pretty interesting. You see him on highlights and he can look so dominant - he just physically overwhelms players. His foot skills are legit. Then you see that 5-4 match against Levante, and although Vermaelen may have been the bigger issue, Mina looked like a flag pole at times. He just looked clueless, unstable, awkward.

Can't help but thinking we just need a couple of solid defenders, we don't need someone like Mina who maybe could turn into Koulibaly, but could also turn into a bad Michael Keane.

Jamal Lascelles might be one, but why on earth would Newcastle sell him?

I keep harping on but the problem with Lascelles is how do we know he’s not another Keane? We have seen nothing to suggest he can defend a high line because he’s played for defensive trash all his career.

EDIT Oh god just realised who I’m talking to about a high line

So they can spend £30m and their owner can trouser £10m

Because Mike Ashley really likes money

You really need to stop with the high line thing.

Don’t make me go get the poll that agrees with me.

 

[T LEAFE]

If we play a high line and do zonal marking does that mean we just dont bother marking anyone any of the time?
