Lmao. I wanted him so badly in January. We better sign Martial or Zaha.

I guess Lucas Moura's 6 appearances or whatever were greater than waiting for Malcom. I don't know that I care much either way as I think Lucas will be really good for us but Malcom surely would have been exciting.

eugh, feel like our back up has disappeared. Either all guns blazing or....

Its about the 6th time this has happened this summer. Difficult to know if our back ups are going else where or we are simply being used by agents etc. Plea, Bissouma, Malcom, Barrios all the same.

The one thing they all have in common is that they've ended up at lower profile clubs.

I reckon we did want Malcom and Lucas - it was pretty much confirmed by JJ - but Malcom would've been the additional creative player but that role is now being filled by Grealish who can also play deeper. Also Malcom cannot play up front whereas Martial and Zaha can.

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed about this one. Really wanted him at the club.

The only logical reason is that we have passed up the opportunity because someone else is on our radar. We better be successful in this respect now.

I never saw that from JJ, not disagreeing just commenting. I just thought we needed probably 1 addition to the winger/AM group and probably couldn't fit both in especially after seeing the limited playing time Lucas got once he got here.

It just makes me more intrigued as to who we actually think we can get in. Very interesting times for us in these next few weeks. Strange that we haven't even been strongly linked with anyone other than Grealish at one point.

January seems a long time ago now.

If you have any slither of optimism the only thing I could pull from this news is Spurs have a better target sorted.

This probably isn't a time for being optimistic though so ...

Zaha or Martial it is then.

Hope the gamble pays off, otherwise we really would of missed a trick not signing him.

The kids gonna be a star.

He played his cards wrong in January. Wasn’t all down to his club. We got the better deal in Moura

We're not in for this kid.

£30m seems cheap compared to the valuations of last year.

I do hope we get this window right.

Didn't we have the same question marks when Boufal signed for Southampton?

Is Malcom really the world beater he's seemingly being made out to be, despite only really generating "major" interest from Inter Milan & now Everton?

Interested if people here would prefer Malcom or Lozano...

I think I maybe would have preferred to gamble on Malcoms talent rather than Lucas, but I'm still glad we have Lucas in the team.

At 30mil, I believe had we wanted him, he was ours. In January, we wanted a right sided winger it seemed, Moura signed instead. Now the priority seems to be a left sided Wing/Striker. Not surprised if he wasn't a target.
