Worry not everyone. Herc says we’ve a deal done. Just doesn’t have the pesky details of, you know, the player.

Don’t panic! (Dad’s army). Told we will not be disappointed. Agreement as good as in place on another wide player. If I had his name I would share it back office, but I do not.
 

Meh. Before last season, Bournemouth fans wanted him out (remember they were in Championship the season before). Seems he was a good fit in Iraola’s tactics. Let’s see if he actually managed to improve as a player along the way or he’s just another system player.

My bet is he won’t score more than 15 goals, which is not bad after all if he can contribute to other aspects, like creating space, hold up ball, etc.

Of course he cant share the name because nothing has appeared in the media yet which he can piggy back on and pretend he knew all along. Fucking walloper.

We play similar to Iraola so even if he’s just a system player it should be fine.
 
With Neto out of the picture he would be my first choice for a PL-proven wide player. He’s tenacious and has quality, underrated player.

I still think we need an Eze-type to challenge Maddison though, I still don’t think we have enough reliable quality in attacking midfield.

Agreed we need a wide forward and an AM to compete with Maddison ideally. However a wide forward in the Neto type style is priority.
 

The deal is between 2 English Premier League sides, yet the fee is quoted is in euros!! Hhhhmmmm

Let's not forget last season their wage bill increased by the largest in actual terms and % terms in the European top 5 leagues (2nd highest in the PL now). Their revenues have declined and they don't have CL football yet again or a front-of-shirt sponsor and have added to the wage bill by adding a further 100 players this window.
 
This is why you don’t spend £90m on Kulusevski and Johnson in one window by the way. Because it leaves you in situations like this.

Spending that money on them last window is aging like spoilt milk. Just a horrendous decision to make that our right wing of the future. A huge oversight, in all aspects.
