If we do get Ndiaye instead of Gakpo, Ndiaye looks like he'd fit in much better here with great footwork and linkup in tight spaces


£60m + £5m agreed for Ndiaye


Great news, very much prefer him.

Ndiaye + Doku + Cherki + Semenyo might be one of the best sets of dribblers ever seen in the league. Very excited for this and should be really fun to watch us going forward

Ndiaye also gives way more of a defensive contribution than most wingers

Is the Everton lad a bit out of league field? Lot of money for 2nd choice after Gakpo.

CHELSEA missing us about re Fernandez. Talking about swap for Cherki and we give them a few £m. I'd leave them stuck with an unhappy player? Walk away if they ain't being sensible

Spurs suck at transfers, did they not know they already had Richalison?


Now they've got the two worst Brazilians.


Surely that was the Baywatch girls ?

There are some discussions online that besides Enzo and Ndyae there is another one.
I reckon we are talking about a backup for Erling.

Good money for the Arse but don't see whats in it for Farca apart from catalogue terms.

Does seem to be dragging on a bit. It amazes me the whole pantomime around these transfers.
Why oh why did we leave it all so late, we knew we wanted Enzo F ever since Enzo M arrived.
Its a mad transfer window were having, and the strategy doesn't seem to be well planned, reeks of make it up as you go along.

We’ll never see him in a City shirt again. Disappointing for my money. Looked promising in the snippets we saw but you never know what goes on in training and behind the scenes

good player, steps up in big games, gives everything on the field. Fee is high but a huge signing to take our midfield to the next level and compete in multiple comps all season.

We looked extremely light a few weeks ago but now have a pretty incredible collection of midfielders. Now up to Maresca to get them working together

Do agree with this. Not a fan of this Argie, but fuck me, we are tidy in that front 6 and have some oprions.

Yes, Hugo delivered; we really look really good on paper.
Might actually turn out nice this season.
