He absolutely screams 60m to Chelsea and 6 goals in 50 appearances over two seasons.

Apparently the mid 90s Brazilian TV show "Explode Coração" had a protagonist named "Cigano Igor" which resulted in a massive boom of male babies being named 'Igor' going into the turn of the century
Mbuemo has 9 goals in the league. Don't think he's been that impressive this season but let's at least get our stats correct.
Brentford are a scam club, I don't know what magic beans they are using over there but it seems like it's working for them.
O
The team is put together with data models. If players A and B win a certain % of challenges, and players C and D cross the ball a certain %, then you will create a certain amount of xG, etc, etc. it’s so different to how most clubs team build even now.
I think Brighton do that as well don't they?
Sorry, my 9 key was upside down, fixed it now...
Either way, 6 or 9, doesn't change the ultimate point of Brentford form not being particularly demonstrative of being able to do that elsewhere.
They're like a less flamboyant Brighton.
Similar, but different models, and I think Brighton give more remit to the coach to mould the style and the possession game.
Plus you know that the injury that had him out for a whole season when he moved there would resurface the moment he signed for us.
It sounds weird, but "Igor" is actually a surprisingly common name in Brazil, particularly for those born in the 1990s and 2000s
I don't under-estimate the need to dip into their pockets; quite the opposite... If anything, I doubt the suggested £200m would do enough in this market if we are to get the quality and amount of players people expect (especially when we avg. about £150m anyway these days) (***).
.....Even less so when we inevitably fritter x-amount of that kitty away.
We've little coming back in sales too; as ever.
(***Eeeeeven more so the notion that anything other than year after year of good, focused recruitment would keep us out of trouble forever more.)

How would you feel if Crystal Palace came in for let's say Bergval and offered Brennan Johnson as part of the deal

Poor Bren....
Not gone too well for him so far at CP..... 1266mins / 0G / 2A......
Imagine him bagging a winner in a European final two seasons in a row though!

He won our first European Trophy for 40 years, which is the only criteria that matters when judging if someone should have stayed or come back, apparently

I'd ask for £300 million alongside Brennan
