I dont get the manquillo deal at all. Maybe he is planning on using flanagan at lb with enrique and manquillo and johnson rb. We already have 3 rb's for fuck sake. Flanagan first them johnson then kelly. We need a left back and a striker.

 

As it stands we have a stronger bench but a weaker starting 11. 100 million spent and all. Fuckin hell

Don't see anything wrong with the manquillo deal...we're getting a player on loan for 2 years which we will have paid a loan fee for, they have the option to break the loan after 1 year and reimburse us part of the fee, if we keep him for the second year we then have right to buy.

 

Just like any other 1 year loan deal followed by a 1 year loan deal with the option to buy, what's the problem?

 

Nothing wrong at all. From an Atletico point of view.

Who spotted manquillo. Our transfer strategy is weird, not bad or good just weird. We are like those people who don't watch mainstream movies we like to go to some abstract french cinema and watch a Frenchman argue with a turnip. Fuck blockbusters, fuck famous actors, directors and screen writers, real film lovers watch films no one has a clue exist.

 

I am a bit sky generation I can't help it I do want a signing that excites me.

No risk deal for us, we have three other rbs and competition should push glen along with the fact hes fighting for a contract.

 

Flanno is better at lb where he can come inside and use his passing, at rb hes not good enough going forward.

 

If Moreno comes in I would think flanno would be cover for both fb positions, with Kelly however and his injury record I don't see any clubs that will be looking to take him as first choice so it will be interesting to see what happens with those two.

Brendan, Ayre and Henry would spend the entirety of Glastonbury in the New Bands Tent, nodding their heads.

Why? You worried about our sell-on policy?

 

Personally, I'd rather we signed quality players who do the business for us. If we have to pay accordingly, so be it...

 

There are better players around than Lavezzi and we'd have to replace him after 2/3 years as his main asset his pace drops off/disappears.  Oh and Yes, we'd also get fuck all for him when he undoubtedly wants to return to Argentina.
