Carlos?

“I’m handsome, I’m a nice guy — but sometimes, I kick people" Diego Carlos There's a decent article in the Athletic about his Europa Cup crime spree. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwj8t73K5571AhWYWM0KHY0mCSQQFnoECAsQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheathletic.com%2F2004761%2F2020%2F08%2F22%2Fdiego-carlos-sevilla-redemption%2F&usg=AOvVaw0L_-IpS0urjjhGHdS6zndj

Loan only and only if Juve pay a huge chunk of his salary and we buy another CM.

Bramblinho

Who scored? has his weaknesses down as Tackling and Concentration.

I didn't get a Paraguayan and an Argentian from before my time (as a fan).

That, his insane salary, his age, his poor performances... so many reasons to avoid.

They're not surrendering a lot of goals.

I think I was responding to this.

If we do sign Trippier and Digne, does anyone think we'll be playing with three at the back? Provided that we bring in another CB. A bunch of Ifs there. Occurred to me with the talk yesterday that Simeone had switched formations to accomodate Trippier.

Unsure if Man Utd will refuse to sell to what they see as a top 4 rival or if they think that Lingard and 100M will get them Declan Rice.

He's off to ACON. Won't be back until after the 18th at the earliest. So maybe available for Everton, maybe. Anyway, I'm not convined.

Agreed. Then mind games with Tottenham and Everton. And only then Arsenal.

So does this mean that Luke Edwards is full of shit?

What do you suppose the price on either would be? About the same as Botman? Both are older.

I'd imagine that Man United might finally make a bid for him.

Sure to irritate Christian Streich, "Unbelievable"

But that would be so incredibly petty...

Don't they need to sell before they can buy? I was under the impression that they hampered by FFP. Downgrading at left back at LB to buy players better suited to Rafa's tactics?

Those two are not the same. He is giving up the possibility of impressing with AC Milan. He is not giving up the chance of partnering with Van Dijk. I agree that AC Milan would be more tempting, but you've conflated two ntirely separate things.

What do you expect for nothing?

Howe is at 5 in 7. Still not good enough.
