I don't know if this is helpful, but in Danish 'brune rotte' means 'brown rat'.
 
If the Gibbs White signing goes through we've probably signed 3 starting 11 signings this summer and one of the best young centre back prospects in world football. If Bissouma leaves and Palhinha or someone of that ilk comes in we've probably made 4 starting 11 signings.

Clocks ticking obviously but there's 25 days until the Premier League starts, everyone can reference Woolwich, City and Liverpool but the teams we're realistically competing with this season have barely strengthened at all.
Only 25 days

Bang average numbers considering the team he’s played for

I swear half the Rodrygo hype is just because Brazilian + plays for Madrid.

He is a very good winger - if either Liverpool or Arse gets them he's an upgrade on Diaz and definitely Marteinelli. But he's not near world class or 100m player territory. He's a good supporting attacker, not a star. The guy has 7 in 33 for Brazil and 32 in 172 for Madrid.

OK he's a wide player but his creative numbers aren't all that either. He's very hard working and imo would hit 10+ goals 7+ assists in the Prem but nothing earth shattering.

When hes played on the left he looks a lot stronger. He won't get a game there at RM without injuries

Maybe, but I'm not seeing the star others see. I see a player who has moments in him but isn't quite at the level of his more talented teammates hence why he is in this position.

I could be wrong and he could be another Sanchez but I've never quite seen it. I'll be gutted if *they* get him because he's a huge LW upgrade but 100m+ would be very representative of how mental the market has got imo. None of his seasons thus far justify it even if he has looked a lot better in flashes on the left.
