Haven’t watched him enough. How is he with the ball at his feet?
Very good both at staying calm / moving all shorter and longer distribution. Sure during boxing day game sky were on about him being top for some distribution stat. But going off those that watch him (few friends & family are Brentford) and they think very highly of him as integral with ball at feet. They also noticably coceded a lot more when he was out last year. Only downside for me is height, shorter than I'd have thought. But for the likely price, I'm in

Fits Ten Hag's system like a glove, could easily see him going there. Chelsea just in it to be annoying pricks as usual.

Is David De Gea leaving?
Yep. Contract up.
If United get Raya, they will get a cheap & good replacement. And they will use the majority of the 375k a week De Gea wages for Kane, if he goes there. ?

Raya has been my no1 choice for GK, so I really hope we move on & get him in this window

I like him too. What do you think about the criticism that he’s not tall or big enough physically?

Could a quick swap deal be attractive? - Lloris to Brentford, Raya plus cash to Spurs. Would Lloris want to join Brentford though? Both teams would be happy - Brentford have a replacement and a lot of cash and Raya should give immediate improvement with his outstanding distribution.

Definitely see him going back to France, personally.

If I remember correctly, Brentford already signed a keeper from Lazio in the summer.

Thought he was quite highly rated one, but he's been sat on the bench all season because of Raya.

He’s not exactly what they look for in a keeper is he?

If Forster starts tonight, that shows that Conte has lost faith in Hugo, in some way. I'd say we should probably send 20 million Brentfords way if that's the case. They already have their replacement as second choice, Raya is home grown and ready to step in right away. Have the three of Forster, Hugo (a last revival with more competition?) fight it out during the rest of the season and we have a clear number 1 going in to next.

I think there is zero chance of this happening

I'm not sure he's got a coach in him, but I'd love to see him stay on at the club in some respect - ambassador with Ledley and Dawson or similar.
