Why would we spend £70m on 1 player? Every time we have sold a player we have used the money to buy 2 players which is how we can keep improving the squad. I'd much rather sign 2 player for £35-40m than buy 1 for £70-80m. Whilst we definitely need quality we also need to improve our squad, so signing 1 player for a huge fee wouldnt really help us with that. 4

With Cags, I just dont want him to go. I think he is a far better player with so much potential. He is "Barca quality" but give us a few more years first big man. Same with me. Soyuncu I feel can go to the very top. Maguire and Chilwell are both good but nothing special. 4

Maguire and Chilwell are both good but nothing special. Yep, totally agree. Imagine how good Cags will be in 2-3 years' time when through gaining experience he'll be reading the game like Evans, whilst also having great pace, a brilliant and rare asset for a CB? He's already comfortable on the ball but I think he plays within himself at the moment and could play more forward passes. Again that will come with experience and increased confidence. Plus on top of this you just have to love his character - the hair, the Cruyff turns in his own penalty area, the slightly crazy look in his eye. It's ridiculous but I couldn't even get that angry with him when he booted Wilson in the head! Edited 8 August 2020 by Sunbury Fox 10
shailen Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 Absolutely bonkers kicking Wilson but somehow also absolutely brilliant. The guy is exceptional; pace, strength, calmness, ability to read the game. He's got it all and he will be up there with the Van Dijks of the world if we can keep him. Not surprised Barca are after him, but we need to keep hold of him if we are serious about our own ambitions.
les-tah Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 (edited) Thought Barcelona need to sell players right now? How can they justify £70 Million + for a centre back? There is no logic and just seems like paper talk? Edited 8 August 2020 by les-tah 1
ARM1968 Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 I think it’s all lined to that Trinket bloke - and I’m not talking Jimmy Saville.

Luttfox Posted 8 August 2020 Posted 8 August 2020 I'd guess this has something to do with the Trincao deal. Like when we were in talks with Stoke over Huth then apparently made offers for N'Zonzi to help drive up his price. The Cags rumour is to probably help Barca with the Garcia deal, scratching each others backs, which hopefully means there is still talks going over Trincao 3
