We can only dream of having a player like him now.

Its one in a million for a player with his talent to come through our system and for what he's worth now we could never afford him.

Yet we sold him for peanuts...

We'll get more but probably every 3rd or 4th season. Jj nex gen is growing a reputation so talented kids will want to consider coming to us. However what Giuntoli did is what his successor will do too. Plusvalenza comes first here, balancing books etc. I hope they take a second and third look before they do something like this, but they won't. Expect more to slip through our hands over the years.

Like a number of us, I knew this guys got something special the moment I saw his jmedia documentary. His parents have brought up a gem, mentally he looks so composed, a high eq, and how he was rocking at Roma at his age, speaks volumes. Anyway well done to him, fully deserved.

Yessss! Cant wait to see him grow into world class defender, i rarely sees this level of maturity as a defender at very young age
Genuinely one of the few, so excited when i first saw him played in next gen and i didnt even rate soule, miretti, fagioli, kenan that high. Hujisen was really clear hes different than the rest.. worst decision ever.

I agree. This is going to be our Coman of these years. A defender that can actually pass the ball to strikers. We havent seen that since prime bonucci. We sold it for scrap because of fucking plusvalenza. Fuckkkk

Agree, He is still 19 years old. We need LCB at that time, and not even considered him is strange at that time. Motta focus to get Todibo at that time
We are happy we got a bargain for Kalulu but somehow we regret not retaining Huijsen

Funny thing is Giuntoli was willing to pay 30+ million for Todibo but he chose West Ham instead.

And now Todibo is one of the worst defenders in the league and Huijsen is one of the best.

He was clearly a very good prospect..
Should have never sold him

not just needed to raise money. needed to raise money to sign a 4th goalie di gregorio and nico gonzalez.

LOOOOL
Don't forget Cabal and some random Portuguese dude who didnt even have a Wikipedia page until JJ signed him.

Both of these players cost more than what we sold Dean for.

Anytime to fuel them waterworks, my fraternal feeler. Always ready to hand out nostalgia and emotional support.

I should start a tearjerking series "Memory lane - The Chronicles of the weed boy". You'd be my top subscriber.

When I saw the amount Bournemouth paid, I posted that we sold him so cheap but a few members on here said Dean is not that good anyway.
It's because we rarely produce or bring in such promising talent so its an easy thing to say or dismiss. Coman was our last one, Marchisio ( though he took a while) and Immobile. We'll i hope there's many more to come.

He has a £50m release clause.
And we make 20% of the sale?

OK that's enough for today, I'll post more tomorrow.
Yeah this bothers the shit out of me! But in positive terms: we have a youth setup that scouted this kid + Mbangula, Yildiz, Adzic. We should not have solg Huijsen but maybe , just maybe we can rely a bit more on our youth setup than we're used to and expect some new names to be brought up to the first team every new season going forward. There's always another fish in the sea boys

Oh yeah, the Cabal guy :lol: What another useless shitbag of a signing.
No he wasnt. You have a brain of a goldfish then. Cabal was shaky for a CB but he is promising as a fullback
