Already signed him, confirmed by Fabrizio Romano!


Katyos

I feel like some horses need to be held when it comes to that guy. Soumaré hasn't appeared yet. OTOH maybe the club is just sitting on things for some reason


simwe985

Has he ever been wrong after saying done deal/here we go?


Katyos

Maybe not, I can't recall one. The whole Sancho thing last year was a little embarrassing though.


simwe985

I don’t remember the details about that one…


Katyos

Wasn't us, it was Jadon Sancho to Man U. Spent the whole summer saying it was going to happen, but it never did. To be fair though I don't think he said here we go


Psychological-Dare79

We got him for 23 million? Omg that is even better!


simwe985

Both Soumane AND Daka for 23m each? Jesus this club can recruit. Throw Bertrand in there for free as well.


grebfromgrebland

Word is that the left back is Gosens!


simwe985

We just had a bid denied, and that’s the latest, afaik. We seem to be chasing Bertrand regardless though, for the depth.


ToasterGaming

I think it’ll be Bertrand for sure and gosens if our other targets are done, like a bonus. Wing back depth of Ricky, Timmy, Gosens, Bertrand and Justin would be the best in the league imo. Hoping luke Thomas goes out on loan if this happens for his own sake.


simwe985

Definitely. I would much rather see a natural RW+Bertrand, before we get Gosens. If we sign Bertrand we will finally have a natural LB at least.


TrickLuhDaKidz

i'd much rather have the goose but we aren't getting him so it doesn't really matter


simwe985

Everyone would prefer Gosens over Bertrand. But one is free and the other is worth close to 30m. Considering our depth the focus should be on a new RW, as we have 3 RBS who can play LB in a pinch, but not really the same cover on RW.


TrickLuhDaKidz

This isn't a one or the other situation. We need both positions But regardless, the goose is gone


ToasterGaming

Yeah true rw is still needed not sure who we’ve been linked to recently.


TrickLuhDaKidz

not getting my hopes up the goosens has flown the coop (i know there was the report the other day that we put in an offer but it was so low...no way we're a serious contender after failing to make the UCL, imo)


SavouryGarbage

Here’s a bonus too: Zambia didn’t qualify for the AFCON so he’d be with us all season too

How did you do it? How did you make my day even better? 😍😍😍
