RowlattsFox Posted 1 October 2020 Share Posted 1 October 2020 Even if he does sign this morning, i doubt we'll see him until after the international break. Gives him a couple of weeks to sort things out and get used to his surroundings. I guess if Evans is missing they'll be the temptation to chuck him in but I doubt it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALC Fox Posted 1 October 2020 Share Posted 1 October 2020 The social media team have been scrambling for Fofana puns and references to Big Wes and Little Wes since the fee was agreed. I've a feeling this could drag on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 1 October 2020 Share Posted 1 October 2020 This will be close to club record fee for a 19 year old CB. Risky. I hope he’s good. Is there a YouTube highlight reel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom12345 Posted 1 October 2020 Share Posted 1 October 2020 It is crazy to pay £30m plus for a 19 yr old defender who has only played half a season. I hope our recruitment team is right and he is on some 6+ yr contract, because as far as I am concerned Evans and Cags remain first choice CB for this season and no matter how good this bloke is he needs to be third choice at best despite the price tag. The fact that he also declared he wanted to leave so early because this is a lot of money to him also does not sit well with me. He would want to leave as soon as a “big” club comes in.

I think we have to accept that part of the reason we've paid so much for this player is the club are confident they can flip him for a big profit in a few years time. Its part of our business model now and at the moment its working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearing in mind the money we paid for him the 'big' clubs will only show any interest if he's been tearing it up for us because obviously he'll have a high starting price. He surely will be a backup squad member and I don't see that being an issue, remember Soyuncu came in for a fairly high fee for a backup player and we didn't really see him for a whole season, now look at him. In the meantime it gives us more depth in a much needed area where even our 3rd choice can expect a lot of opportunities to play and develop. The only risk here is if the guy gets crocked or simply doesn't live up to potential which are risks in every transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
