If it's what Poch wants, then fine. But, the links to him and Zaha, if that's the type of player Poch wants, are a little concerning for me.

Can we somehow give him a free role where he's allowed to run aggressively in straight lines but not attempt any passes please?

Ah Fuck it, Poch- if you believe that you can make a world class player out sissoko and coach his flaws out of him then I'll trust you. That's my whinging don. All behind the lads we have now.

Coys.

I for one am happy with sissoko. Poch will get him working his ass off and he will have to fight for a place. Not like Newcastle. Don't care a joy how much he costs

but we won't spend 30m on a player

we won't spend what we don't get in

ring any bells

I must admit remembering all the players we fell just short of and seeing us spunking £30m on Sissoko makes me feel a little unwell.

£25m for Slimani
£24m for FUCKING Marcos Alonso - yes THATAlonso who was probably the worst defender in PL history when playing at Sunderland.

£30m looking like a steal for Sissoko.

Similar lack of technical ability and footballing intelligence, but Paulinho never ran fullbacks ragged with direct pace and power the way Sissoko did for the whole Euros. He's a decent versatile squad player and brings attributes that we've been lacking.
30M for a squad player......just let that sink in.

Honestly, I've watched this guy a lot, absolute beast of a player. If Poch taps in and gets his head right, this is a huge signing for us, huge.

Don't make the mistake of being underwhelmed because of the inconsistentcy at Newcastle, it was a mess.

This guy has the ability to pull defences all over the shop. What a signing to round out our midfield options.

We've seriously just upgraded our strength in depth if this goes through.
