From what I’ve seen of him — he’s great. He has a wand of a left foot.

A Torres-Romero partnership could last us a decade. The Jan-Toby regen.

I agree in terms of functional strength, aerial duels, and aggression, but Torres for me has the defensive instincts, fantastic body shape and approach when blocking shots and passes, and his ball playing is up there with the best of the best. Tbh I have no idea why United spent 30+ mil on Lindelof. Even at Benfica, I never really saw anything. At least with Torres he has fantastic traits that outshine the ones where he isn’t as good. Note, I do not like how poor he is in the air, and that is a very serious point for me.

Would say 35 mil would be fair, but Villarreal would ask for more I’m sure. Lacroix would still be my choice, though.

Played equivalent of 62 games in the last year.. needs a break! By the time he’s rested, adjusted and got up to fitness could be end of October. Depends how happy we are to wait till then and bed him slowly!

I know his name. Can't say I've seen him too many times.

God knows. At least we're after another CB I suppose, which is encouraging.

I'm confident we'll get the defence is reasonable shape this summer.

The attack...not so much

Has been great in club game. Seemed a bit suspect in Euros and Olympics.

I thought he had a 65M release clause?
