If you find a player that can do a job, even if just as a good place holder, does it make the world of difference if we have an option or not?
Nothing too wrong with an old fashioned loan if it suits all sides - you wouldn't walk away from a loan that works in the short term just because there was no option.

I think people need to chill. If we progress as I'm sure we will as a club I dont see why he would go anywhere else.
Hes done the massive club thing and it didnt work out.

Yep, I don't care if we have an option or not. We have now a set of CBs that will hopefully see us through the season.
It's just to get a RWB now, or hope that Doc and Emerson can see us through.
I think a RWB will be got in, then we should have a squad with a realistic chance of top 4 and a trophy.
Can't say I'm confident of a trophy. Our back up players will have to really step up in the domestic cups. Am confident of top 4 though.

Yeah I just can't see it. Conte could easily turn Lenglet back into a €50m asset and Levy would not want to be doing that for another club's benefit.

Where’s the footage of the doctor holding his balls and making him cough? How thorough can the medical really be without that?

I think you need to be looking for a different kind of Twitter account.

Oddly in that photo he looks like Peter Crouch if he hadn't been born in a grow bag or had been put accidentally on 90 degree wash cycle as an 11 year old!

Again not really much for us there. Unless there’s a restriction on how much they can sell him to the market (doubt that’d be overly enforceable from an anticompetitive point of view) then it’s only if they choose to sell him to us then that would bite? Not saying that it’s beyond the realms - but again, doesn’t seem much there for us

I can't understand the outrage and confusion of the no option to buy? Especially as many didn't even want him in the first place?
Think its pretty simple. He wasn't first or second choice, Bastoni and Gvardiol were and were unattainable, simple as. Lenglet is the easy stop gap until we potentially move for the other 2 next summer.
The loan fee isn't much of an issue when you take into account we were willing to pay £60m for our first choice. It frees up money in lots of other positions, as @Trix has alluded to way too many times, the fluidity of of our business.
I'm sure there's even more tidbits we dont know which Herc has insinuated with the Lenglet transfer.
Regardless, I kind of feel for Trix the most, he's explained the complicated rollercoaster of how the transfer window will pan out yet it seems no one listens? Quite crazy.
Lenglet fills the Lcb role for now which probably means we have alot more cash to approach the other vacant roles, RWB, another CB and a creative midfielder.
Its not rocket science.

Barcas financial situation could be the reason why no option or obligation was agreed. Maybe after a year of getting their finances in order, they’ll be in a better stand point from a negotiation perspective. He has a contract until 2026 and it’ll be in their best interests to let him go away for a loan and try recoup as much as their initial investment as possible.
I reckon we’re just happy to have a CB of his quality for a season as a stop gap.
