I'm pretty surprised that according to L'Equipe we're considering a huge bid for Ndombele given that, as recently as June 8, quality ITK suggested our scouting consisted of receiving DVDs & other digital media about the guy from his agent(s).....

We really do need Spursking for some definitive info.

I have an idea what he might say but I'm keeping schtum just in case.

Another underwhelming signing, he is a bit slow and clumsy. Barrios looks like a Ferrari compared to this guys tank.

Are you sure about that? He's neither slow, nor clumsy. He's quicker on the ball than Dembele and pretty skilful too, most that have watched him can see a real similarity between him and Dembele which is why we think we're interested.

After negotiations finish.

"How did it go Mr Aulas?"

"...we somehow owe THEM money. Dafuq happened? Fucking levy"


"And for some reason, I've got chewing gum all over my sneakers and shoelaces in my mouth."

Although I have reservations about Ndombele, exactly the opposite of what you said is true. He looks far more accomplished than Barrios on the ball.

I won't claim to be the second coming of Spursking but I'd imagine his response would be something along the lines of

Very exciting player who excites me no end

You may not have meant it this way but I feel like I'm one of those "idiots" that you're referring to and yet, if we're honest, you've not been able to offer up anything to clarify the situation around him. @Matecheck is the first one to help provide some clarity and I all I did, along with others, was speculate around the fact that this might be similar to Toby and nobody had any actual evidence to say otherwise.

The funny thing is that despite the fact that he is seemingly going to be a Lyon player in the coming weeks, if he's not already - I'm still not entirely sure, the transfer links are still there and now in reputable french media, so who knows what will happen.

I suppose Lyon may look to sell if they now have a shot at keeping Fekir. Maybe they need to generate some funds to sign some players.....who knows but the whole point of these threads is for us to discuss possibilities.
You sound very reasonable and I don’t engage in dick waving in the internet.

You certainly don’t come across as an idiot.

Will be intereating to see how far we pursue this as the French league can be great for finding talent on occasion but more often than not you get ripped off for a bang average player

So the ITK suggests that we're looking to sign 2 CM's and one of them certainly appears to be Andre Gomes.

Do we think the other is Grealish or N'Dombele? Or do we think that Grealish is considered as additional and we're looking to add all 3?

Another bang average N’player FFS. Amiens sell him for 8m euros and now we are in for 60m. Fuck me dead :D

You are the anti-BBLG.. he spends every post trying to twist even the shittest player we're linked with into a world beater and you're hunting through the threads saying everyone's rubbish :LOL:. Are you his evil twin? Or is he yours?

Is Dele 'bang average' because we got him for next to nothing and is worth a frigging fortune now?

They’ve apparently already activated the clause so unless they’re looking to sell him for a massive profit he won’t be going anywhere this summer.
Stoke bought Benik Adobe from Wolves for £12m after they activated the clause in his transfer from Bournemouth for £10m.

For the amount of money we're talking about then this guy should be in the French WC squad. Just think we're being taken for a ride. Especially for a young (relatively) untested player. You have to be pretty darn sure he's close to the finished article for that amount.

Coincidently that's also my feelings about DeLigt, but that's another story altogether.

Just how much are we talking about? Martial didn't make it either btw.
