Still just 23 years old but has a decent amount of experience in Serie A, as well as the Champions League experience too. Like you said, a bit of refinement and it's the sort of deal we'll be raving about a year from now. He could quickly look even better for us with the sort of work Howe and his team do coaching. £20 - £25 million for him is the sort of deal that can get us a good player with a good amount of top level experience, and allow us plenty more room to manouevre in the market. Thiaw your ideal RCB target then? That is a good price if he is a good player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Angel Gomes is a no brainer imo. I'm sure there’s quite a queue for his signature though… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that I like most of the players we've been linked with in the position. What I really don't want is any faffing about negotiating with that twerp at Palace. And so not keen on revisiting the Guehi deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points, I have no idea how we will balance quality vs quantity with the cost of players this summer, can't wait for it tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weezertron Posted Wednesday at 23:51 Share Posted Wednesday at 23:51 Who was the last cheaper/unknown gem we signed that slotted into the first team? I just looked back into our history and I reckon it's Mitro, Ayoze, Wijnaldum, J.Murphy? Lejeune had potential if he stayed/got played. Whoever it is, it's been a few years since we had that kind of transfer success. Other teams in the league do it, and we need to also given PSR.

Ayoze definitely because at the time he was considered like a Cordero - young guy with potential to develop in the academy, completely unknown and very cheap. Mitro, Wijnaldum were bought for 15m plus and aimed at being first team players and also not that unknown as both had featured in top 100 youngsters lists the year before. Leujene was very good and very cheap. Joelinton arrived as a complete unknown and has turned out well in the end but for the money was bought as a first teamer. Dubravka also arrived as a complete unknown but has done very well. No coincidence most of these are under Rafa who performed miracles for the amount of money he was given. Under Howe the most unknown player has been Osula who isn’t quite a hit yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Underpants Posted Friday at 19:27 Share Posted Friday at 19:27 Watching PSG-Nice atm and Nice midfielder Bouanani looks a player. Left footed, attacking midfielder a bit like Palmer. Just assisted Nice goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
