I might be wrong. I just have Inter-Pirelli, Juventus-Fiat in my head.
I tend to agree, but Skriniar would be the icing on the cake. Our weakness is still our central defence.Even without him I think it’s been a fantastic window. He’d improve us but with Dier, Sanchez and Toby I think there’s ability to have a pretty good and solid duo in there with Tanganga also getting game time to develop. Hojbjerg, Doherty, Reguilon and Bale massively improve the starting 11. We look like we’ve finally got a back up striker and Ndombele has settled in. We have a much better side and squad and a genuine chance of doing things this season.
Diet and Skinnier as our central pairing....sounds like a weight watchers ad
Aren't they financed directly by Pirelli? I doubt they're ever short of money.
He looked very fast for a CB today. I don’t think I saw him get beat with pace once. Didn’t watch the entire game though (mainly 5-10 mins segments as I was working)What’s Skriniars pace like? I’d be a little concerned against fast mobile attackers, paired against him and Dier.
I believe we will see movement on this deal after the europa league qualifier, if we win.This one have"try again in January" written all over

Nope. If we don’t land him it will be someone else before close of window. Levy is giving Jose exactly what he wants. This will be no different.This one have"try again in January" written all over
An outlay of 40m (ish depending on what we read) really is a big one in these times so still not convinced this will go ahead as it is a lot of cash. One positive now at least is that the striker is coming in on loan for supposedly 3m fee so thats not a big outlay.
interesting few days ahead
Missed out 28mHart Free
Doherty 15m
PEH 3m (swap)
Bale 15m (loan and wages)
Vincius 3m (loan fee)
So that's 36m spent.
You'd like to think we'd get at least 20m from outgoings, which takes net spend to 16m.
So dropping 40m (ish) on the CB would take spending under 60m, which I believe is very much doable, Covid or no Covid.

You forgot reguillon and if you include bales wages as a sum you should include them all to make it an accurate summaryHart Free
