Well Roma have an excellent track record of what players they choose to sign and thought they had him, only for Barca to decide he was good enough so I'd say there's a strong argument to show he's a worthwhile player to be interested in.

Remember when Holtby was a young German team captain?

Can't you read? More Brazilians have flopped IMO.

Holtby played 42 times for Spurs and I wouldn't call him a flop just because he didn't develop like we hoped tbh. £1.5m wasn't much of a fee to flop from tbh.

Sandro was arguably the best of a bad bunch of Brazilians for us (Moura aside) and he didn't exactly excel before he went to QPR.

  • Tier 1 – Almost undisputed when discussing a Transfer Rumour. They may not be the first to discuss a rumour, but if they are talking about it; then it is almost certainly true, and possibly close to complete.
  • Tier 2 – Known to have current sources, but are still fallible and just short of being considered an authority on rumour discussions. However, multiple individuals or sources from this tier reporting the same rumour may indicate a strong possibility of truth to the rumour.
  • Tier 3 – Unreliable, and not to be trusted solo. They fall into near click-bait practices and are often fighting for relevance in a sea of rumours.
  • Tier 4 – Not to be trusted at all. These companies make money out of ensuring that you read them and they will make up anything to get you to harness advertising revenue.
  • Tier 5 – Absolute D*ck Heads. Why are you even reading them for f*ck sake?

Surprised not to see @adiepf get a mention in Tier 5 if Joe.co.uk and IndyKaila can bag themselves a seat at the table...

To be fair he's been playing for Barca B which would probably beat a decent amount of prem clubs. Plus Lucas was unfit at least Malcom is fit and could make a immediate impact
Mate, Barcelona B got relegated from the Spanish second tier last season.

Seems to make too much sense and seems to be quite an easy transfer tale for the papers/websites to put together for us to be in for him. That’s what leaves me sceptical we’ve made contact.
