Great signing but want the next one please. This window is looking so good so far maybe we should have shouted Levy out years ago.

Never disappoints in fantasy league, love Maddison. I like whenever we sign Premiership proven players, even though Bissouma and Richarlison were bad last year. All three will do great for Ange if they stay healthy. Starting calibre CB is next I hope.

Definitely. I've thought this before. I just remember him being a flash git in some youtube thing. Turning up to training in some sports car, all about designer labels and shit. Doesn't really bother me as long as he's playing well!
Yeah heard he was a bit of a prick when he was younger and very flash.

But I can’t deny I did smile seeing him in a Spurs shirt. He’s a great signing for us.

Vicario, Maddison, Bissouma, Bentancur & Kulusevski - £127m
Ramsdale, Havertz & Rice - £200m

Our signings over the last year have been very good and generally good value, with Richy possibly being the only over paid.

Bissouma - may be there is a player there. I still have faith . But I rate Amrabat higher given his passing range and sheer ground he covers in general
If you only say there may be a player in Bissouma, you didn't watch him much for Brighton.

Genuinely up there with the best in the league for two seasons and Ange's task is to bring him back to that level.

Bit early yet. Keeper and Maddison haven’t kicked a ball, Bissouma underwhelming and Deki hot and cold. Hopefully Ange can get some consistency out of them.

This deal just looks nuts set against what Rice is going for, in terms of a transformative HG midfielder. He's only 2 years younger.

Absolutely agree. Although I rate Rice, he ain't £105m worth of player, no where near.
Yeah I’ve heard multiple times today that £105m is “the going rate for young English talent”, but either £105m for Rice is steep or £40m for Maddison is a bargain. The truth is probably a bit of both.

Didn’t expect this to get done so early in the summer so I’m delighted.

We’ve been missing this kind of player since Eriksen/Dele. It’s my favourite (along with a quality cm like Rijkaard/Ince/Dembele) kind of player. Someone who can spot a pass that others just can’t, and we’ve really missed it.
