I still think it comes down entirely to them getting replacements. I think they'd need two CBs in to sell him. 

I think if we offer 70m they will take it and laugh, regardless of it they buy 2 centre backs. I’m sure when they first picked this price it was as a joke as they thought nobody will pay it.

Never known a transfer like this where there is so much noise suggesting it’s happening whilst at the same time there being absolutely nothing tangible whatsoever to corroborate the noise. A tweet gets put out saying “it’s close” and then there’s just nothing, for days. 

 


Glacial levels of speed this one 😂

This is just stupid.  I'd rather just go with what we have than pay £50m for this guy, nevermind £70m.  If we had City's infinite money cheat code then maybe worth a punt but we're leaving ourselves short and potentially screwing ourselves for next year.

How many do you think we'll get in? Right wing is still a major issue for me. Neither Murphy or Almiron are good enough. 

 

Probably better suited for the general transfer thread but I can't see us signing a RW now. I wish we would but I don't think it's as critical as CB. My larger point is that these financial restrictions make things really difficult for us to sign the types of players who can materially change our level - and I think people are severely underestimating that fact.

Had no idea who he was.  But I had SSN (how awful is it these days by the way) on and noticed on the transfer tracker thing on the side of the screen they had signed someone from Betis, Chadi Riad.  Looked him up and he's a centre back who played at the weekend.  Plus they're constantly linked with Lacroix.  So surely if they got the latter, they've replaced Andersen and Guehi.  At least in Parrish's eyes they have.  Even if their qualities and abilities might not currently match.

Tomkins left on a free in the summer as well if you're looking purely at squad numbers.

They would still have 4 senior centre backs, as when looking up this new signing.  I noticed they signed Rob Holding (no laughing) last season and all.

We’ll need a lot more than two positions next summer if don’t finish in Europe this season. He might be over priced, but we’ve put ourselves in this position and we’ve got little option now.

You’d be gutted if you were a replicant that supported NUFC. No say you’re seeing the end of this saga.
