I'd be more than happy with this. Good shot stopper (not as good as peak Hugo obviously), but very secure with the ball. Not sure why he'd leave Napoli, but we'd do far worse than Meret.

Wiki:

Considered once to be a talented and highly promising young goalkeeper in the Italian media, Meret is an agile goalkeeper, who possesses good reactions and shot-stopping abilities, despite his height and imposing physique, and who is known for his handling and ability to rush off his line. He has also drawn praise in the media for his decision–making, maturity, and calm composure under pressure, as well as his discipline and work ethic, despite his youth; moreover, he is capable of organising his defence effectively and is known for his penalty–stopping abilities. Although he is competent with his feet, his distribution has been cited as an area in need of improvement.He has also struggled with physical problems and injuries throughout his career.
 
Bottom line is, he's crap and we need to upgrade him and some other first team players.
Should we upgrade Forster before Lloris? Fuck no.
Should we upgrade Rodon before Davies? Fuck no.
Should we upgrade Spence before we upgrade Royal? Fuck no.

It was a daft comment. Our starting 11 needs upgrades, not our bench.
50% right on the last sentence. Our starting 11 definitely need upgrading before the bench, but the bench is also in need of upgrading. If we replace Dier, and the replacement gets injured, then there's a severe drop off in quality with his replacement.
 


We totally haven’t rattled Everton fans after taking Danjuma. Fuck it, bring in Gordon to send them over the edge.

Lad's absolutely seething. This transfer is worth it for this alone.

Eric Dier replacement now before the deadline please.
That's simply not going to happen. Or an AMF...or a GK...in fact once again we've only scatched the surface of our problems. If Porro comes, then I hope he's going to fill that RWB position with what we need but we haven't even addressed the gaping holes still left. So, one good (hopefully) player, one relatively unknown but cheap addition, its a classic Levy window

It's not "daft" to suggest selling Rodon & keeping Davies.
