Bentancur we don’t know. Some players like Ibrahimovic do an ACL and eat it for lunch coming back as strong immediately, others like VVD look half the player afterwards.

Our needs and the availability of those players have evolved over the course of the window.
Especially with Johnson, that's a guy we've had long term interest in. I don't agree, but I'm not employed as a football scout.
The thing the club is doing that is making this all a shitshow is trying to throw a donkey into every deal as part-exchange up until the bitter end.
they will go in for johnson again i reckon
To all of you pissing your panties about Liverpool signing Gravenberch...
Be honest, had you even heard of him when you got up this morning, let alone seen him play five minutes of football?

He came through the academy system at my local team Bristol City. Was well documented he had a tough childhood coming through the care system but he broke into the first team at Bristol City at a young age as a left back. Very quick and tidy on the ball. As he grew he started to play more as a CB then got a big money move to Bournemouth (Alex Scott has just followed the same path through the Bristol City system to 1st team is then onto Bournemouth for big money). Worth a punt as a squad player who is home grown and had/ has a high ceiling. Very impressive as a youngster the few times I saw him in person. Upgrade on Ben Davies
I'm confused.....
Depends on who is most desperate for a BJ, levy or brentford
App/Goal/Asst (since EPL debut- all comps):
23/24 - 4 - 0 - 0
22/23 - 45 - 3 - 1
21/22 - 39 - 8 - 3
20/21 - 32 - 2 - 2
I don't see him covering Maddison in any meaningful sense...... Just another PEH imo.
This is literally a pin point hole in one description of what this guy is like as a player
Why did t we at least just get Orban in fir £25M few weeks back. That link has been going on for weeks. Rather this last minute panic buying splunking over £100M on average HG players.
We couldn’t even get fati as for some reason he found de zirbi more appealing.
A lot down to how tight their nutrition and peripheral routines are, as you say Ibra known to be utterly dedicated and exacting (and utter self belief), no problem.
Bentancur, whilst not of that level, appears one to be highly dedicated, just concern that Ange midfields need to be dynamic and twisty turny it seems, do have concern he won’t trust his body enough to impose it (to be fair it looked like he completely over wound for the World Cup, as he went into his best form going into it, by far). Should be seen as a happy bonus to the squad if he makes it back to former level.

Was speaking to my Forest supporting neighbour towards the end of last season.
My prediction to him was Kane goes to Utd, then we bring in players from relegated clubs, namely Maddison, Bamford and Ward-Prowse if he doesn't replace Rice at West Ham.
I suggested Forest would stay up otherwise we would bring in Johnson, which genuinely annoyed him. I certainly haven't studied his play, but he was basically saying he knows they won't be able to hold onto him, but another couple of years would do him good etc. He was gutted to hear there were even ideas of him leaving, which was enough for me to think - probably worth a punt then.
When fans that watch every game don't want a player to leave, it's usually a good sign. So I'm all for Johnson even though I have probably seen him play fewer than 600 minutes personally.

I can't wait for tomorrow, all the Levy haters gonna look like right muppets when we sign Rodrygo, Tapsoba and Lautaro.
Nip in then, now the deadline price is set, if he’s top talent as posters claim.
BUY ANYONE!!!
You'd have a point with a lot, probably even most, that we're linked with/that Pool sign from outside the PL, to be fair.
In this case, most following not just the PL knew about him even before Bayern.
I'd heard quite a bit about him as a massive talent, and watched a bit of Bayern and a lot of Holland at the World Cup, neither one opting to put him on the field.
The hype was similar to Eduardo Camavinga. The results so far have been anything but.
Just Google him mate
every deadline day for the last 10-13 years have been the same thing. always a last second signing and 10 different rumours.
