Genuinely would’ve preferred to sell cancelo for 45 and buy Darmian. Not expecting anything here from Danilo other than to play back up to MDS.

He left off his own accord the first time after winning a 3rd CL?

The only meeting taking place on that day is Sarri telling Paulo to go to the tabacchi and get him 60 Marlboro light.

If he stays then are people going to call him a leach like quagliarella?

And at Porto they said he was amazing and rated him higher than Alex Sandro then. Seems there’s no in between at the past 3 clubs he’s been at.

Thought the same thing when I read this. Even if we’re dreaming I still can’t see a Dutch CB trying to play like a Uruguayan CB. Complete clash of footballing cultures.

Whilst it is questionable, at least he would get game time and likely be a starter over the likes of Calvert-Lewin and Tosun. He’d develop more there than ,competing with Mandzukic and Higuain for a spot on the bench which is the current reality.

I feel the same way. Thought Bernardeschi was amazing when he was at Fiorentina. Has not come anywhere close to expectations since he arrived and I’m starting to believe his ceiling is far lower than we hoped.

For a preseason friendly, it was actually a decent open game. MDS made a goal and cost us one. If he’s gonna play games and we insist on always passing out from the back, then I’ll be quite worried.

Still can’t believe this guy is here. The days of welcoming the likes of Andrade and Boumsong are finally starting to feel like a distant memory.

Whilst a valid point, you need to also weigh those pro’s up against the fact he can barely seem stay fit anymore. As with many fans I love the guy and would be happy if he stayed. Wouldn’t be devastated to lose him though if we can retain the rest of our current full backs and wingers.

Performs well in his only start in the Copa America and still gets pissed on. The next season if he stays is a crucial one. If he doesn’t perform in a few games, I can see the competition for places pushing him onto the bench. Here’s hoping a change in playstyle and an improved midfield will...

Considering we were so short on available midfielders in the second half of last season, what’s a good number to have going into this one? Matuidi, Bentancur, Pjanic, Khedira, Ramsey, Rabiot, Can. (Bernardeschi backup) I think we have one too many. 6 is a decent number, however with those...

Ederson’s insane distribution and decision making puts him in the top bracket and ahead of Courtois.

In Spain this week and a few tv channels are criticising Cristiano for endorsing the £260 retailing six-pad as evidence shows that is does nothing. (Because no one has ever put themselves on a commercial that doesn’t tel the truth). Amazing how they barely mentioned any criticism to the creator...

Looking forward to seeing him in our starting line up. Blaise should be the ideal guy to help him settle in, if we can keep him for another year.

Sad to see Spina leave. One of the few players remaining that actually loves the club.

We need a centre back and a centre mid. In previous years we would’ve cheaped out and got a few mid level options for each area of need. I trust that our management and finances are now at a stage where we identify our biggest need and go all in there.

Would be great to have the transfer market sewn up by the first week of July and then have a proper pre-season go to plan. Wishful thinking I know, but the chase of a high value asset and a free agent could potentially allow it..

Apologies - missed the context.
