Lucas Moura

Heard any rumours? This is the place to discuss potential transfer targets.

If 65M was our transfer budget for this window I would have preferred to sign Lucas for 25 then spend the remainder on a CB/CDM or both if we could find some more bargains.

Why is it we never pounce on the obvious bargains?

Dembele (Spurs) 15M, Eirksen 11M, Lloris 12M, Aurier 25M, Mkhi 25M, Jesus 27M, Ibrahimovic Free, Kante 30M, Azpilicuta 7M, Pedro 22M to name a few in recent years all of those players would walk into our side and at some point were all available for peanuts.

We were in for Lucas but when it comes to 'pulling power' right now Poch >>>> Wonger .... that will change when Wonger goes but who wants to sign for a 'dead man walking' .... just look at the last three big signings Xhaka - Mus - Lacca .... do you really need the same shite they are getting coming your way? .... and let's face it once Ozil goes we're a million miles from top four .... it doesn't mater how many forwards we sign .... a squad that's average from back to front just can't compete .....

We should have signed this guy, 25 million for a 25 year old quality player, a genuine winger we needed, would have rather bought this guy than Mkhitaryan that we didnt need.

The problem with that is that I think Mkhitaryan was the key to getting Auba. Package deal. Auba specifically references Mkhitaryan as a reason for joining.

They paid £42m for an unknown Ajax defender. This guy costs £25m for a reason.
PSG could have gouged Spurs if they really wanted to. They certainly did when they sold David Luiz for £34m last year.

That unknown Ajax defender would walk into our team and within the next few years Sanchez will be one of the best if not the best CB in the league, we should have have snapped him up before them.

18 goals and 15 assists last season says you're wrong .... he's only played 70 minutes this season (and scored 1 and assisted 1) why? because PSG spent over 400 million on Mbappe and Neymar .... at just 25m he's a feckin' bargain and he's only 25 years old ....

We wanted him but we had to go with the Mkhi / Auba deal ... which also got us Ozil .... so of course we made the right call .... if we had some more balls we would have spent another 25m and added a quality wide player .... we're not there yet ....

Don't think Moura is shite, he most certainly isn't ..... and remember Spuds have bought him as a squad player, something we used to do back when we were good ....
