He’s going to Brentford pal

I thought he was off to Brentford?

I think this is one of the only young wingers left I’d be excited by due to him being very talented and being a proper fit for what we need in a winger (great 1v1 dribbling ability). Looks like he’s going to Brentford though unfortunately

Fair enough how can we be expected to compete with teams like Brentford

What do you know that no one else does, @Rob?! Or are you just catching up with this morning's rumours...

 

[Flobadob]

Yeah why have we got this thread without any credible link or itk info?

Watched Bakayoko closely yesterday for PSV against Rangers in CL qualifier. Looked a threat every time he got the ball. Has very good dribbling ability and can put in a hell of a cross - 2 or 3 times first half his crosses were extremely dangerous. Very good technique -mostly in swinging because he’s left footed inverted on RW, same applies to his dribbling good close control and trickery, likes to go inside but has the ability to go outside of the fullback too. Would be very good competition for Deki’s position.

Sangare also looked very classy and assured. Strong on the ball and didn’t put a foot wrong. Looked like their main midfielder and ran the show from middle of the park. Their AM Saibari was also very dangerous and scored a couple. Scouts watching the game would’ve had a field day.

Yeah I sort of watched him v Rangers last night and he looked like a really fun player to have.

Brentford are going to be a pain in the arse to deal just through sheer pace.

Rejected Brentford, some might say he’s waiting for a bigger club…

Maybe he wants to play in the champions league this season now psv are through.

Want us to sign him... not because I know anything about him... just because I am also called Johan!

Possibly yeah but I think he’d struggle to turn down an offer from a big 6 club, especially with the wages on offer.

 

[ButchCassidy]

Brentford back in for BJ then? Was wondering where we managed to come up with potential Gallagher money…

To me, he fits Ange's system better than Johnson. Very exciting

Only negatives I can think of is price and he is left footed, so likes to cut infield a lot. Seems Ange wants someone to keep the width and be able to dribble the byline

This guy any good, never heard of him until this week

If we were in for BJ and looking at Amrabat or Paulihna if we sold PEH, it would track that we could alternatively do Gallagher and Bakayoko. Still 1 HG.
