This cannot bd the be all and end all for us or it's a joke that will make us cry.

Like Fofana and many others, certain injuries recur.

Hope I'm wrong but this has risk all over it..
It's not risky at all. Saves Levy from the riak of paying a decent fee for Johnson when he can't feel he's won the transfer. Selling Harry Kane and replacing him with a free transfer, a loan with no option and a kid club signing.
 

Fati experienced a challenging season marked by injuries and a dip in form in 2022. Despite being fit in the latter half of the campaign, playing time was scarce underBarcelona coach. Consequently, rumors circulated that the La Masia graduate might be leaving this summer. However, the 20-year-old has firmly dismissed these speculations, expressing his commitment to succeeding with the Blaugrana. Fati closed the previous season on a high note, netting several goals in the final few fixtures - and finished with ten goals and four assists to his name in the last season,

Plays anywhere across front line - often off left wing, can play right wing as well

Played 5 games as a CF last season.

Scored his goals from the LW though.

Played 51 games across all comps since recovering from his injury issues.

10 goals and 4 assists in his recovery year.

20 years old.
 
Seems like Fati is getting done. If he's as good as people say he is I don't care if it's a simple loan. He can make the difference for us now and we see where we are next summer. Maybe he has a great season and wants to stay. Barca are broke, it will not be difficult to agree a deal with them. Our attack desperately needs an upgrade.

I'd be amazed if we also got Johnson through the door.

Also bizarre that there are no CB links. You would have thought the Sanchez horror show might have accelerated things.

1) Fati + Johnson + CB = 9/10 window
2) Fati/Johnson + CB = 7/10 window
3) Fati/Johnson = 5/10 window
 
Mixed bag this summer

Maddison: club identified a critical but weak area of the team, signed him good and early, no messing about and got him for what looks like a steal.

Vicario: another weak area of the team identified and addressed early. Still not convinced that Raya wasn't the better option, time will tell.

Micky VDV. Another weak area of the team. Every man and his dog knew we needed 2 centre backs yet we've only signed one. Signed a mere 3 days before the 1st game of the season. Absolutely disgraceful that the coach and team were put in that position. Easy to overlook this now due to our recent results and how well VDV has taken to things but a completely unnecessary and avoidable risk.

2nd centre back. Still pending with 48 hours to go.

Replacement striker for kane. MIA. Kane left 2 weeks ago and the club knew it was a very definite possibility since June and still had nothing lined up or nothing done in the last 2 weeks.

Players Sold

Lloris, no

Dier, no

Sanchez, no

Rodon, no

Tanganga, no

Spence, no

Gil, no

Hjoberg, no

Skipp,no

Davies,no

Sessegnon, no

Perisic,no

Ndombele, no

Kane, YES

That tells you everything.

So which of the players have declined to move from Spurs to a new club - Lloris, Dier, Sanchez, Ndombele ? And given Sessegnon and Gil are recovering from injury chances of them going anywhere are zero.

And listing the one Club Trained player - you really don't understand football do you. ?

Take up another sport which you understand

Fine with Fati and Johnson but we have to finish the window with a CB. Can’t just rely on Romero and VDV.
