Very good final third player. Looks Barca-bound, though.

Is this Rafa Alcantara? Son of Mazinho, brother of Thiago? Or some other bloke. I thought Rafinha played for sociedad. Am so confused.

Not good enough to be a starter for us. Not even close. Might not even be good enough for our bench.

We need a big squad if we are going to beat city and liverpool, that should be the end aim

To do that we need a stacked squad, he is better than pepe imo

He's one of the best players in the league so walks in to our team easily

Only question is for who cos it'll be harsh on our youngsters but ultimately he's much better and still only young himself as well.

It's a squad game. Saka and martinelli can fight it out for one place. Raphinha has the other side locked up

You do seem to have a fascination with these players who aren’t as good as those we have.
Weird.
Only place for this guy is on the bench for us IF we dump Pepe.

Overall though, simply not what we need.

Striker and CM are the priorities.

If we took your advice on players we’d have a team of Everton, Leicester, Newcastle and Leeds players and be fighting relegation.

You need to rotate if you are playing in 4 competitions, plenty of time for him to play

So we can't buy players from the premier League. We can't get players from France, Italy or Spain cos ThEy ArE wEaKeR

I guess we have to get them from the Belgian league :doh:
