Mourinho is going to need a good start otherwise the fans will be all over him. I read the other day that even Rashford has been dropped down to a backup player now. I'd take both of these kids, Borthwick-Jackson looked very good last season.
Those stories are absolute misleading bullcrap - Fosu Mensah is the Dutch captain at every youth level he plays in and is an immense prospect. When those articles talk about these players supposedly being let go they are including them being sent on loan, there's no way he is being sold. Yep, long-term TFM is a central-midfielder - he's been put at full-back in a few first team games as it was a safer place to give him minutes and they were low on numbers.
TFM has just signed with a new agent, so that is probably where the news is coming from. I've seen him play a lot in the U21s, and he was just as good as Pogba at that level. Borthwick-Jackson will probably go on loan, although they might sell him if the price was right. I'd definitely take both of them in a heartbeat.
Abdi from Sheffield Wednesday - creative midfielder/right wing back Forestieri from Sheffield Wednesday - creative attacker
Enzo Zidane from Real Madrid, available on loan. I believe, but am not fully certain, that he wouldn't need to be registered as he would be classed u-21 as per the rules. He's an attacking midfielder who has recently just been linked with boro and cardiff, I know reports suggest we aren't looking for a second creative midfielder but he'd certainly be an option for it, pending an arrival of another more prominent creative outlet. As this thread states, just a suggestion....
I hate to say it but my god Fessi has matured and improved since leaving. Please shock us all with a buy back clause.
For sure. Would prefer Pereya though. But i'd say Hernanes is better than Boufal as well, although Boufal is of course significantly younger.
Saw a very nice blacked out sports car with the number plate t3llo driving into The Grove about 10 minutes ago. Highly doubt it's Cristian though as he has already said he will only move to Fiorentina.
It's unlikely he'd have driven his own car all the way from Spain/Italy to the Grove, but you never know. Maybe instead of jetting players in, we're giving away sports cars with personal number plates as an incentive, but that rotate James Bond style in case they don't sign.
Interesting player suggestions https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/la-liga-leaks-scouting-watford-133134623.html
Has done it in a major league though, unlike Nando. Even Rinaldi has contributed more in the PL than Forestieri.
If Hernanes would be a possibility, that would be incredible. He's unbelievable with a dead ball, and a playmaker, something we are all scratching each other's eyes out arguing about. His age would be a bit of a factor, but as long as the price was acceptable, which it would obviously have to be for Gino to even think about it, I'd be all for it. I'd prefer our more vaunted targets, but if we can't/don't get them, Hernanes would still be a great option. Plus, he would bring the best celebration we have ever had, and that would be worth the price of admission to see.
Thats why I wouldnt have Messi until he played a whole season for another EPL first, just to have a double check that hes up to it
