Is it net which is usually reported by Schira ?
He took quite a paycut from Newcastle to come here and play. One of the few positive that show he motivated to join us

Seriously is he even that much better than Rugani and Djalo? Fuck no

Look on the bright side. Atleast we not Dallas Mavericks, trading away a young superstar and best scorer and playmaker in the league Luka Doncic for 32 year old injury prone Anthony Davis.



Mavericks fan about to Luigi the Dallas GM.

Lol can't even speak Italian? Oh no, what shall we do, we signed players who don't speak the language yet. It has never happend before, ever.
To be honest given its a centreback partnership communication is everything and all the more harder to get right mid season. Even the calls from the keeper, it's going to be chaos.

Leaving aside the absolute odd circumstances that have led us to even scout or consider dealing for this kind of injury prone midtable level player, but how this was not a dry loan or at most an option is just simply beyond our level of comprehension and ball knowledge, almost unexplainable.

Still really surprised with this one.

Expectations start very low, not because I think he's a particularly bad player, but he's English, will take time to settle, and we need a ready now player. If he ends up as another Tomori we've done OK, but I'm not convinced. Injury record also isn't great.

He seems too similar to Veiga for me, not sure why we've signed both unless he is simply a Cabal replacement and will be played left back.

Newcastle only wanted money or something sort of certainty, as did Lens, at the end he comes cheaper here than Danso, but is a twentieth in comparison of the player.

Another day of embarrassment, humiliation and contempt. Up yours Jewntoli.

i think it's a myth that english players struggle in other leagues. harry kane, tomoroi, cheek. even the americans like mckennie and pulisic all doing fine.

still i don't understand why it wasn't cheaper to eliminate rugani's loan. already knows squad, speaks italian and would have been cheaper.

Scenes when Kelly is actually Cambiaso's replacement

This deal seems too sus. Are we helping PIF to comply with PSR?

I'm not gonna hate this guy obviously I want him to do well. He might even turn out to be a bit of a cult/ meme player here

But fuck Guintoli, he is a useless cunt* and this is an embarrassing transfer.

Don't worry. Robee has an explanation for the finances. You'll be surprised
Probably has an even better one for the extensive injury prone history, i’m sure there’s not much to worry about and the medical visits will ensure he is fit to play, we are safe behind the medical screens and modern science being developed at JMedical.

Think it's levelled out over the years as English players have improved and Serie A has declined, so it's less of a factor but it still concerns me.
