For all the "replacement for Vic" posts.

Whilst not always taken as gospel...

ITK in appropriate thread says he's going nowhere.

The guy who said Paulinho would be a great signing for us :cautious:

Pauliniho is a good player for Brazil and Barca and had some decent games for us early on.. I think he was misused by AVB

It will be nearly impossible to find another Dembele so I think they way we play will change our style a bit next season. Barrios can play box to box not just DM can see him and Wanyama together locking things up in midfield and freeing our creative players to hopefully run riot.

I guess if you've got enough good old footballer names like Harry and Danny and Eric you're entitled to one Wilmer.

I think we can all agree that we would rather chance this guy in DM with Vic than shitsoko who has the passing ability of a salmon.

Could be a signal that we are moving Dier to CB - i.e. Toby is gone, and we either can't get de Ligt over the line, or we have to loan him back for a year.

To be fair, if he misses out to Henderson all world cup, when he would have been a shoe in at CB, if he'd played there on/off this season, might make him think the time is right to drop back, if Poch says he wants him to.

This guy is very capable technically where people think different is a bit odd. He is very aggressive which can be his down side as numerous times he does go in with 2 feet so in Europe he may need to tone that down. Can pass the ball and does have an essence of Dembele as he does shimmy around and glide but nowhere near that ability that Dembele has.

people talking about Barrios for Big Vic are missing three things:
1. Big Vic is staying according to ITK and the fact that he is not playing for Kenya on Poch request to be ready for next season
2. Sissoko played a lot in the middle of the park and will be moved on
3. We apparently want two CM with Sissoko and the GOAT leaving

We have some sissoko lovers I see after receiving negative ratings for my comment. If sissoko stays next season that's another 95K a week we could of spent on someone better. He steals a living.
