the defenders are awful for the short passes, hopefully we get tapsoba in, so it might free up funds for them

Consequence of Empoli’s tactics rather than his ability. Quite a deep block team. So maybe they’ve seen something hidden.so looking a bit at him, not really a sweeper keeper and doesnt pass long often
basically a good shot stopper
fair but if we have the same defence i would worry
Raya has similar numbers and it’s been explained why.
thinking saving on raya might make us get tapsobaDid not expect to be watching Empoli matches tonight.
On unrelated note, Collins to Brentford picking up pace. Think he'd be a much better signing for us than Kilman, gonna be an excellent player in a few years imo.
Let's not start with this again. That Milan side was pathetic, it's embarassing how we were even worse. We practically gave them a guard of honour to the QF. Those two games have no bearing on anything.The 4th placed team waltzed past us in the CL round of 16.
The Italian league is definitely not as deep as the PL but the top 7 were all clearly good.
Romero Tapsoba a good combination if we can make it happen.the defenders are awful for the short passes, hopefully we get tapsoba in, so it might free up funds for them
Should gazump that Collins deal lol. Fuck Brentford.Did not expect to be watching Empoli matches tonight.

17 mill even i cant see levy changing his mind on this oneVerbal agreement? Well we all know Levy is a man of his word. This wouldn't be an attempt to get Brentford to lower their price would it? Na Levy wouldn't do that.
Brighton and Brentford sign players that we then inevitably want to sign 2-3 years later. Caicedo, Mitoma, Mac Allister, Toney, Mbeumo are all examples of that.
reckon we will get both scott and maddisonOne other point, the fact we’re going for a non-HG keeper could point to us being confident over Maddison, because we defo need a couple of HG signings to balance the squad.
Yeah it's mad that Levy's the only chairman who doesn't pay a club's asking price straight up.Let's be honest though Larry. If the asking price was £25million, Levy would value him at £15million.
It's how he operates. How he's always operated.
For him, it's not about securing the best player to fill the position, it's about winning the deal and securing what he perceives to be a bargain.
If we miss out as a result, so be it. His ego outweighs the needs of the football team.
PS. Levy apologist. .

Tapsoba cannot be our only CB signing though. I'd consider Romero and Tapsoba the starting pair, then Davies and one more as the backup, and I mean proper backups, not the Rodon, Tanganga tier of crap.reckon we will get both scott and maddison
dont think we will pay 40 for barnes
and tapsoba that would be a good window, we cant expect 7-10 signings in one but those 4 players are the step in the right direction.
sell the shite or tear up the contracts of players we dont need and trim it out
