We don't do that here........He needs to be able to start straight away, then we can rotate Spence & Porro

I think he’ll get a good reception. I think the ‘atmosphere’ around the proposed signing is disappointment that after all of the noise from ENIC when the window was shut, now the chips are down the only business looking likely is an 18 yo LB.He’s an 18 year old kid from Brazil. I swear to god if this fan base doesn’t give him time to adapt, I’m gonna call y’all gooners.

I agree with that, however I will be worried if he is the one meant to step straight inAs long as we bring in 2 or 3 players who can step straight into the first team if selected then there is nothing wrong with this, and we always should be planning for the future.

Yeah they will only get him when he’s contract ends on a freeClearly complete shit as Barca will never pay the going rate for him

When you think about how much he's been starting under Frank, it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.Breezer actually confirmed that the contract extension was to increase his value and make sure we get a decent fee for him. He seems adamant that Bentancur is off, and will 100% be sold in the summer.
If you think about it, it does make sense. He’s been utter shite (I know some people on here rate him but I think he’s utter turd), and many of us were confused that we gave him a new contract when he clearly is not a good player anymore and he is also getting older. So if the whole idea was actually as breezer said it, that would be a more logical explanation rather than to reward him with a 5 year contract just to then keep him around the squad another few years to take up a squad place.
He clearly is upgradable and we aren’t selling Sarr, Gray or Bergvall at this stage. And Bissouma is definitely gone.
It makes sense to sell Bentancur and replace him with a better player.


So about £44 M then?Id get that lookman from atalanta. Hes sort of hybrid across frontline but atalanta can fuck off with 44m asking price. Hes 28. Id do 25m plus dragusin.
Yeah but what if we take 2 or 3 of their shit players in return?Clearly complete shit as Barca will never pay the going rate for him
Spence is a RB, and he's a lot better there. He's been shifted out to LB because he's better in the position than Porro would be.
The exact player they need. Could be a bit scary if they get a quality centre back in that team.
As long as we bring in 2 or 3 players who can step straight into the first team if selected then there is nothing wrong with this, and we always should be planning for the future.
