This is proper quality. Nat Phillips was great but when you look at appearances and level this guy is a step up.

Definitely very good on the ball and maybe that’s a sign of how we’re going to play this season?

The only question I would raise is “can we afford to have one if Goutas, Chambers or McGuinness on the bench ?”.

Maybe we’re selling McGuinness (plenty of interest) to raise some money for a striker ?

Just me over thinking probably but I don’t see Goutas or Chambers sitting on the bench.

Fabulous signing if or when confirmed. We need the 3 of them and arguably a 4th centre half, two players of quality in every position should be the aim. It would be crazy to only have the 3 of them able to play there. We got lucky last year that Goutas stayed fit when McGuinness was injured.

I’ve heard he’s a bit of a sick note ? Very injury prone apparently ?

He was for quite a few years.

But has improved, but last season He made only 5 appearances last season, also featuring three times in the Europa Conference League.

Are you a joke account?

Or you too young to understand who Chambers is? He’s never permanently dropped down to this level. Lots of premier league experience and was unfortunate with injuries to be where he is in his career.

It’s a great signing at this level, very pleased with it.

Spot on. Some people will never be happy, criticising just for the sake of it.

Yes absolutely, we should have signed Mbappe, Bellingham, Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal by now. Shocking business.

Give your head a wobble pal.

Zero ambition. We’ve all seen where free signings and loan deals have got us over the last few years. We’re a sinking ship

Free or not, they are good players at this level and are better than what we have already.

Who would you have suggested? Obviously not Mbappe, because he went to RM on a free so he must be terrible being as though he was free.

Must be a wind up RB. Anyone who knows anything about football knows that these are good signings. Just because there’s no transfer fee doesn’t mean that we’re not paying a fair bit in wages and signing on fees.
