But we're trying to build something to the point of most of us were okay with saying that this is a transition season; if nothing else before we started the season on fire.

Having a great individual season from someone we're not "building with" isn't all that interesting imho.
If I were dead confident about Johnson I'd agree with you.

But I'd rate the chances we're acquiring a core piece of our team for 25/26 about equal between paying 50M for a long term deal with Johnson and a loan with no buy option on Fati, all factors considered.
 
This was reported days ago, but because now this report is following a lose people think it's doomed.
Given the reported incomings that Forest has, they may need to see this go through. So taking them down to the wire to get the price down isn't exactly a bad idea. They'll be in a need-to-sell position that we can take advantage of. He wouldn't have featured against Burnley, anyway, so there's no rush at this point.
 
I don't really see the attraction of Spurs for young Ansu. He wouldn't be a nailed-on starter here any more than he is at FCB, you'd think he would be better off being back-up there, with his family and mates around him, rather than at a strange club where people speak a different language, eat different food and he doesn't know anybody.

If it's right that Barcelona want us to pay his whole wages, it won't be cheap. He's currently trousering €250,000 a week.

Definitely more downside risk here for Fati than us.

But I would back myself to force my way into our lineup if I were him.
 
Not preferably! It has to be permanent, or at the very least with option to buy that neither Barca or Fati can jump ship from. If we're bringing him, it should be because we believe his body will hold up injury-wise.

Being a testing site where he simply goes back to Barca if he has an injury free season is a non-starter.
Yeah dont want no sneaky clauses as part of deal. Loan with obligation to buy will be good. 25 per cent sell on clause I can live with. But just to give fati minutes for a year so he improves then goes back to barcelona. Waste of time. Sky saying were still interested in johnson and bakayoko.
 
wrestling brawl GIF by WWE


A penalty shootout doesn't go our way and this place turns into a royal rumble.
Let’s put it into Context - we lost because Ange chose a piss poor team that had never played together before. A mistake we’ve been making for a long time.

Could it, could it possibly be because, just maybe because, we remunerate our managers far better for finishing in the CL spots than winning a domestic cup - is that possible?
