It's really not. He's going to be a star. It's not going to happen, but you're writing him off, probably without seeing one minute of him play.
He looks very raw and lightweight and he is just 20 years old. I honestly think he’s much closer to Argentinian Dibling than he is to Eze

There are young players with potential who are worth buying. But we need a player we can hand the keys to and count on to play 40+ matches as the creative fulcrum… and he’s just not there, in terms of being ready to play right now.
 
The sad part is that after having agreed terms for Eze and not got him. Having a here we go for MGW and not getting him.
The club will now leak nothing about business for the rest of the window.

Whoever we bring in will be kept silent until it is virtually happening.
But no one is really hyped for the suspense. Whoever it is represents failure in the window and won't be as good as either MGW or Eze. Levy would have to become the goose laying that golden egg and somehow getting Rodrygo for this statement to not be true.

Fuck Levy. Just once act like a chairman of a big club and not a cheap imitation of Brady and Sullivan.
Is that a bad thing???

Or maybe it's because we do not have a decent scouting system that CLEARLY identifies the ones we want at the opening of the window.
Strange how United and Liverpool got their main targets signed up quickly.
Every time we try to sign someone who is sought after by others, we dither . Eze should have been signed weeks ago.
It is obvious that we will now be scraping around the championship so expect Dibling, Hackney and the lad from Leicester.
Of course there will be rumours about Rodrygo and Simons because we want to win the Champions League. Hahahaha!!
Update, cross Dibling off the list.
 
42M for Dibling? Reminds me of the time when Everton were selling the farm for Klaassen, Bolasie, Tosun, Sigurdsson and co.

We already have our own overpaid punts in Gray and Tel. Dodged a bullet there.

He's absolutely nothing like Dibling, for one. He has the ability to control a game, make a good pass, great on the ball. When you watch him play, you'd think he was 30. Some players are Rolls Royce's, this kid is one of them.

Why do you think Real are so worried about him going and will make it stupidly hard to get home with no doubt a buy back clause inserted?

I remember people thought Modric was too lightweight, if you have that ability to see something before it happens on the pitch, it doesn't matter. He's so good.
 
Watch him. He’s average as fuck in an average league.

Even just watch one of those crappy YouTube videos and in what is supposed to be 4 minutes of ‘highlights’ is just him miss-placing passes and skying shots.

We’ll massively regret £70m on him.

Agreed, we wouldn't pay £70m for a class, prem proven player who would genuinely elevate our whole club, but apparently we're about to drop the same amount on some overrated 9 year old that no cunt has ever heard of.
