Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

[walworthyid]

When Lucas settles in and is ready to start it will be interesting to see how line up. 4-1-2-1 with Wanyama / Dier holding and an attcking midfield of Moura, Eriksen. Dele and Son supporting Kane,

Would mean Sanchez dropping out though when Toby is back.

I don't think we will see a fixed formation, it is all about options. He gives us the option to play direct and with pace on both flanks. We can replicate the high press of pool and city. But we won't always play like that.

We just need another guile player in midfield. Someone to pick the ball up deep and use it creatively. We have really struggled in that area all season particularly when pressed. With that creative presence and the threat of pace it will be much more difficult to press us.

Moura is a good signing, assuming that it happens of course.

You know they way we work when it comes to these things. I'd love for it be announced now. But, wouldn't be at all surprised if it isn't public until Wednesday afternoon. Few hours before kick off against UTD. More bang-for-buck, as it where.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

I'm not a massive fan of the lad, but I'm certainly quietly hopefully that he will realise his full potential with us, and if he does he could be electric. But ether way 25 mil in this market is an incredible bargain for him.

Would love this signing to be Van der Vart MkII

Tottenham fans show him the love he was missing at PSG. He returns the favour by becoming better than Neymar.

this is exciting stuff.

 

[Cavehillspur]

Absolute peanuts in today's market very exciting signing.

 

[Hengy1]

@Rob is right... tomorrow seems like a Much better day.

This to me means it’s done

 

[DiscoD1882]

It’s also nice to see with have exhausted all the wingers on our list starting with N and are moving to M now.

Why?

Still a WP to sort out.

We’ll announce it subject to WP like we did Sanchez

That's absolutely trivial. He's played in France years, and has lots of international caps. We got aurier through!

 

[daryl hannah]

100 pages just around the corner.

Couldn't make it up.

 

[minimike]

Real coup, people really downplaying what a great signing this will be.

 

[Johnny J]

If he has a good 18 months with us, he'll be worth twice what we paid. Very little risk with this one.

You know nothing John48.

I assume with Breezer chiming in that means his medical is scheduled for tomorrow.

 

[synththfc]

If he has a good 18 months with us, he'll be worth twice what we paid. Very little risk with this one.

Even if he scores only three goals this season, that's equal to sissoko, n'koudou and lamela's combined tally over the past calendar year. We've done great business here

 

[John48]

You know nothing John48.

Often been said, mainly by my wife.

 

[spursfan1991]

He is very good on the playstation as he has abundance of pace in both fifa and pes. I am delighted with this signing. I like a bit of pace.

 

[Atomic Flea]

Low risk for the fee. Even if he turns out to he awful I'm sure a Chinese club would spunk a huge amount on him in 2 years time
