So you think him playing in Spain will help him acclimatise to the premier league as opposed to say an English club or dare I say, another premier league club at the other end of the table?

A PL move would be good for him too, I wouldn't dispute that. But it's not about just acclimatizing to PL, he's a 20yo who's acclimatizing to playing professional football and has a lot to learn. Playing for a club in La Liga isn't much better or worse, personally think it's probably a better league for him to develop. Don't think it hurt the likes of David Silva or Santi Cazorla that they never had a loan to Norwich at 21. Gil is about 4/5 years away from the age those players were before moving to PL. Whether we should have bought him or not is another matter.

Why not just develop Rodon / jasphet. Everyone keeps going on about conte improving players well let him do it with these two. Why waste money we haven’t got buying another CB? So that we can play with 10 defenders and harry dropping into midfield to give us a formation of 1 10? None of these players we have gone for except diaz set the world alight. All functional run of the mill players who ain’t gonna make us great watch or play with any style. Want some creativity after nearly 3 years of sit back and hope football. Forget these crap players for 20/30M and just go for neves. His the one who would be like modric/Erickson and make us tick. I’m sure his contract is running down and manure we’re gonna offer £45M. Just offer that plus any of the donkeys we have like Doh in return.

Wolves are right below us in the PL table, why would they sell us their best player?

Would he? Look howmany disagreements there are over Spurs players.

My hunch is Bentacur is decent. better than Hojberg and Winks. But not the game changer we all crave like Diaz Raphina or Lamptey would have been

Given that clearly the judgment on the players is subjective (only their reports on the numbers can give an idea) in my opinion Kulusevski and Bentancur are good players. The Swede has yet to explode but he has good numbers. The Uruguayan now has a great international experience. He was a pupil of Allegri: then the plans changed by changing the players and therefore the needs.

In my opinion Kulusevski and Bentancur are good players. I see the Swede very physical for PL. Bentancur, less than twenty years old, was a regular in Boca. Juventus currently has only one redundancy, namely Ramsey. This son of a bitch refused all proposals. For the rest we are talking about normal market movements to settle the team.

Ramsey who joined on a free, so what do you expect? Likely wants to either come back to the UK or fuck off to America or somewhere etc.
