Some people will be disappointed and some people will tell people how to feel and that it certainly shouldn’t be disappointment and what a great time we’ll all have. Sarr wouldn’t be anywhere near my first choice but the signings have been spot on so far disappointed we only got a Porsche instead of a Ferrari after 14 years of not being able to afford a bus ticket.

Your choice has to be based on who is worth finishing the remaining £35m reportedly, who can bring an immediate positive impact for the team consistently and won't be a flop? Diaby? Paqueta? Eriksen? Belotti? Griezmann? Any other? Diaby, probably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Diaby seems highly regarded, but I can’t say I’ve ever seen him play, so on that basis, I’d prefer Sarr who I have and is tried and tested in our league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikky Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 33 minutes ago, KaKa said: That £35 million we bid for Diaby seems very relevant after a bit of snooping around. Apparently we have been credited with a bid of £30 million for Porto's Brazilian winger Pepe, but I think there's been a mixup, I think we have actually bid that for the Porto right winger Otavio that has continuously been linked with a move to the Premier League this year. In fact there was a very strong link with Newcastle in March of this year that said we'd move for him in the summer. Interestingly, Fabrizio Romano confirmed a few days ago that Otavio has a release clause of £35 million pounds that lasts until July 15th and after that it goes up to £55 million. I think we're probably negotiating that release clause or trying to structure it in a beneficial way. My money is on Otavio for that right wing spot, unless Leverkusen come in and agree to accept the same amount for Diaby. don’t think it’s Otavio tbh - they’ve just sold Luis Diaz, Vitanha and the guy to Arsenal Plus he’s 27 - we will be looking for a Bruno age type Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wether it’s actually true or the club are putting it out there to try keep prices down is up for debate but I doubt 3 journalists have just decided to make it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be honest we’ll be lucky to get £10m for our out goings combined also it’ll be the owners briefing the journalists.

SUPERTOON Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Don’t really buy the narrative that the club are deliberately telling journalists we have a limited budget to get prices down.

SiLvOR Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Sarr would be a much better option than Fraser, Murphy, or Almiron. So I'd be really happy with him. Ofc, we all want the glamorous big names through the door, I've been dying for Raphina all window. But, for now, we need to improve, and Sarr does that. Can't imagine he'd be the only wide player we bring in either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
