Levy should take note!Destroying the clubs long term finances to sign raphinha and a 40 year old Lewandowski. This is the way

National team stuff doesn't have any bearing for me. You could say "60m not bad for Italy's starting #9", but we know that would be a bogus argument, even though they won the Euros.
Looks like our transfer business this summer on Day 20 after the Window opened looking like :
1 Ivan Perisic,
2 Fraser Forster,
3 Yves Bissouma,
4 Richarlison de Antrade ,(Per Fabrizio Romano and other social media)
5 Djed Spence - Work in Progress
6 Clement Lenglet - Work in Progress
7 2nd CB, still to be identified ?
Other targets could include another RWB, CM/AM .........
10 days to go until the South Korea tour starts ....... and 2 months before the transfer window closes.
Excellent progress so far !
Really good window so far. Perisic, Bissouma and Richarlison are not only good players, but players with great mentality and a proven track record. Very low chance of them failing to replicate the output for their previous clubs.Looks like our transfer business this summer on Day 20 after the Window opened looking like :

brazils #9 is a little different to any others tho. most successful football nation on the planet, known for playing attacking football, youre talking about their hitman. its always going to be a prestigious shirt.
richarldson is a great signing finally someone to keep harry kane company in the box when we play those teams that like to defend with 11 now we have someone other than harry to cross the ball to.
Very good? Overreaction. People never learn. Sanchez is a car crash.
Tbh, I would say a lot of people have fallen into the same trap with Dier. Can be solid as a rock for 5 games then brain fart so hard he shits himself.
Sure, but Dier played whole season and he was really good/solid.

I know he's not everybody's cup of tea, but I think Sanchez is decent back up. He's now 26 so coming into his prime, and I can't think of that many CBs being the finished article younger than that. He does not seem to have an attitude problem; and didn't throw his toys out when fans were getting on his back. If he does get game time this coming season it looks like he will have better players around him. and now has a much better DM in front of him. I understand the criticism of him and can see flaws in his game (positional awareness, lack of composure, flat footed etc) but still wouldn't be a player I'd look to move on until we see how any potential new CB signings settle in at the club.
