Fati would be an awful signing.
One look on the Barca forum tells you everything you need to know.
As usual we have, left too much business for the last minuteAnyone who thinks we're going to sign 3 players in the next 2 days needs to give their head a wobble.
We shouldn't even have entertained the idea of selling a striker of Harry Kane's calibre without having a proven, high quality replacement already lined up.Selling possibly the clubs best ever striker and not replacing him at all is just laughable. Brennan Johnson ansu fati do me a fucking favour. We need a striker more than any winger at this current point in time.
His move fell through ?If we could move Gio to Barcelona in this deal, Samardzic from Udinese could be a decent option for under 20m.
Yes, also he plays at the same position Salomon and Perisic plays, no need for him.Fati would be an awful signing.

Lo Celso is crap, a nothing player, It wouldn't be hard to find a replacement.wonder if he still wants to keep Locelso or we might make a last minute dash for an AM after that nothing performance from gio last night
And looks like a hard guy to deal with it outside of the field. No upsides.Lo Celso is crap, a nothing player, It wouldn't be hard to find a replacement.
could be but Paratici was rumoured to like Fati before . Even before he had a season injury free.We aren't going to sign Fati. It makes no sense for an ENIC/Levy signing.
- He is injury prone.
- There is no buy option - so we are being used to rehab.
- His wages are obscene reported at over £230k per week.
This is not a player profile we will go for.
It looks more like we are pushing the news to knock some money off Nottingham Forest' valuation of Brennan Johnson. And his agent is pushing for the move to help Barcelona move his wages so they can sign a replacement.
Some good points in there...but if you think we're getting 8 outs and 5 ins before Friday you're in cuckoo land, my man. More likely to be 1 or 2 ins, 2 or 3 outs. And nowhere near the calibre we actually need, just cheap last-min opps from the Bargain Bin b-list.How Ange can say he needed to see what the players had during a game like that is beyond me.
It is literally the hardest away tie the draw could have given us at this stage and to throw Forster in ahead of Vicario shows shows me that Ange massively underestimated this cups significance or overestimated our squads capacity to play.
It also goes to show just how much trouble we could face if we lose Bissouma at any stage. Skipp really isn't good enough but is young and deserves his place. If Hojbjerg leaves I think we need to replace him with Amrabat. Sarr or Skipp starting week in, week out is just a year or two away from each still I feel.
Move Lloris, Spence, Regulion, Sanchez, Tanganga, Hojbjerg, Ndombele on and get Tapsoba, Tosin, Amrabat, Johnson and Fati in. 8 outs and 5 ins needed, still a lot of work to do on that squad as you can see pal.
If we are lucky half of that happens. I still can't believe Sanchez took the 3rd penalty....why? Unbelievable return to the fans again Spurs, how often can they keep making the same mistakes?
Lost away to Middlesbrough, Sheffield United and Fulham 3 seasons in a row in cups. For a team desperate for a trophy that's just pathetic isn't it.
Not in the first 2 months they didn’t, at least i don’t think they didSome good points in there...but if you think we're getting 8 outs and 5 ins before Friday you're in cuckoo land, my man. More likely to be 1 or 2 ins, 2 or 3 outs. And nowhere near the calibre we actually need, just cheap last-min opps from the Bargain Bin b-list.
Re Ange - last night's post-match comments were another own goal by the Big Fella. I already wasn't impressed with how he spoke of Harry when he left (proper toed the party line), but last night was a joke. I still like the man and how he shoots from the hip, I still believe in him, but it shows that when the shit hits the fan...well, he knows what side his bread is buttered on. Say what you want about Jose & Conte and how poor a fit they were for us, but they at least dared speak their mind about the club's long-standing, deep-lying issues
I never get this logic? Unless you’re criticising the owners you’re a liar…..Some good points in there...but if you think we're getting 8 outs and 5 ins before Friday you're in cuckoo land, my man.

Guess this one is a goer.
Always had a suspicion. Seems an Ange player to me. Can dribble people either direction and has end product to score or cross/cutback.
I don't know the first thing about fati but I'd rather have him on the left and Brennan Johnson on the right than the current lot.
As one of the wealthiest, most profitable football clubs on the planet, it really is quite pathetic
