You brokered many multimillion pound transfer deals for football clubs?
Best thing about the Twitter trolls demanding transfers as soon as they're in the media and wondering why it ain't done after 10 days, is the fact we have probably been talking for months. Imagine the breakdowns if it got out earlier.

Hopefully this gets done by tomorrow evening and the lad is in the squad for utd.
Although that would be amazing I think the best we can hope for is having him in the stands for the match. Don't see how he would get near the bench unless we have too many injuries. It will take some time for him to adjust to Pochs tactics.

Gomes was one of our best players the year we reached CL for the first time. Not sure we would have reached CL without his amazing saves against Arsenal.

Very true just a shame his first and third seasons with us he was a liability.

I think this is a good signing should it go through as evidence from yesterday and several other games this year that we are in need of more quality and variation, well done to the club for getting this over the line and for a reasonable price.

Of course they do, even when we all go to sleep Levy is there whittling every last euro away!

:ROFLMAO:

This place is good for a chuckle.

Good news this morning then, hopefully concluded soon.
This place seemingly never sleeps. Especially that A&C who deletes and creates threads at very strange times!

Sorry to change the subject, what do you think about Lucas Moura?

Thank you for asking... No doubt he is a decent player. Pace to burn which I think we desperately need. He is going need time to settle though as mentioned earlier in the thread as only featured in something like four or five games this season so going to take time to get up to speed.
I just hoping he isn’t like the majority of our Brazillian signings who came with decent reputations which barring Sandro haven’t really worked out.

Surely if he has a work permit to work in an EU country it applies to all EU countries?
He has been in Europe for 5 years, and depending on how far into the process of settles status he is, he might very well already be allowed to work in all EU-countries. However, a work permit in one country alone doesn't qualify, he'd need a more formal visa/residency in an EU country.
