I think Maddison is a good signing. It's a start.
We must get some good defenders tho. And preferably, some pace somewhere in this team, we must be the slowest team in the league!
But yeah, i like the signing.
I'd like us to speak to Juve about a deal for that Iling Jr kid. Yeah he's ex-Chelsea but who gives a shit. They let him go, sure he'd jump at the chance to join us & prove the cunts were wrong. Juve need the cash and he's no important player to them, so bet we'd get him for say 10-15 mil. Perhaps they'd take Dier/Domb/GLC on loan too?
Also worth keeping an eye on that Danny Namaso at Porto. Young English striker doing very well with their reserves and now getting first team experience...and scoring goals.
In terms of foreign players, I do like that Sheraldo Becker from Union. Not a big body, but he's fast, clever, can score & assists, can play central or drift out wide, proper team guy. Played a big part in Union finishing 4th...think he was involved in a third of their goals. Don't think he'd be that expensive and probably a swap type deal to be done with one of our deadwood. But I'm not sure he'd wanna give up on European football to come to us, especially to sit on the bench.
There were - apparently - talks about us being keen on his brother Nico, but it's Inaki Williams I'd like us to take a look at. Been a fan of his for a while. Not the most prolific striker by any stretch, but he's a big & fast fucker. And another team player. If Ange likes his forwards to press like madmen, he'd be excellent at that. Like Becker, I don't think he'd cost a fortune. But yeah, he's approaching 30 and would he leave Bilbao (and his brother) to come to us?
