Considering most of the comments I’ve seen about him from actual Serie A supporters saying his a great pick up for us, I think that may be more beneficial than a YouTube video. You never know though, we could have brought in Raya and he could shit the bed. There are zero guarantees in transfers.

”It’s a good point. What other team with the money needs him? This is where levy playing coy could pay off.
Vicario had the 2nd best (from players to play over 1000 mins) "Expected Goals per shot on Target vs goals conceded" in Serie A with +2.9. Lloris was ranked 31st in the PL this season with -4.1.
To put your mind at ease, Maignan was top last season (Vicario was 9th)Doc

This shows Vicario as 3rd best GK in Serie A (on PSxG), and one of the GKs above him barely played any games. But it also shows Onana and Maignan has lowly ranked, so can this be trusted?

Agreed on the importance of paying for Tapsoba, if he is this year’s Plan A.
He's the one that has a meltdown everytime someone is the slightest bit critical to him. He threatens to quit until everyone tells him how valuable he is to the server and he comes back again for more attention.Hotspur88 on SC had an absolute mare trying to get some clout by calling the Raya transfer as almost done a couple of days before the Vicario news broke, leaving him once again looking like a massive fucking helmet.
“I believe we have basically agreed a fee now. Much closer to 30m. This should be wrapped up this week
Followed by this lamentable attempt to cover all bases when PoK suggested we were moving away from Raya
“Not heard anything on this one to suggest things have changed. It's not to say things haven't, but the update I received a few days back were that a fee was almost agreed more towards the 30m mark. I was very confident that Raya would be our first signing but things do change. Who knows
What a fucking fraud
you actually watched this player? going off his youtube clips he does not look all that. im getting sanchez vibes from him, looks quite stiff and in some of his clips looked like he got a bit lucky. hopefully this is all very wrong if we do sign him.

He’s alright. Definitely will be affordable but I think Ibañez who is also affordable may be better for us.
Lo Celso rumours all over the shop, Lloris has offers in the desert.
Why would he only want to come to us and not Newcastle at all? One club finished 8th, the other is a CL team and looks to be on the way up.
One can hope! We need it…
Eze and Scott for about £70M would do !
Good approach! We can still make do without Maddison until we get alternative. Especially if you play kulu in the 10 and porro wide right.

Ok. Which four of you got banned there today?
Newcastle have to do their build within FFP and it wouldn't be wild to suggest that they will struggle to balance CL and the league in the immediate future. I'd be a little cautious that the domestic teams and Chelsea are also on the same teat too.
