Fabinho

Interesting viewpoint

Sorry to be so blunt but you cannot possibly tell me that the layman knows more about players than the likes of Guardiola, as much as we think we do.

At least he's not going to a PL rival

If he's going to Athletico then we may well have Koke lined up. Who knows? No one on here any how.

Koke - Saul - Fabinho is an excellent midfield, I don't see why them signing Fabinho would result in a Koke sale.

But you don't know now. Neither does anyone. You certain Koke wants to stay if Pep was after him in one of the famous phone calls? Its as likely a move as any.

Sure no one knows if we'll sign Koke in the future. But there's no reason to think that bringing in Fabinho has anything to do with Koke leaving — they play different positions (Koke plays either on the left or as a more advanced CM), Fabinho plays CDM or RB.

I don't see the arrival of Fabinho meaning the sale of Koke this summer. Fabinho couldn't play til January.

Hard to get excited about someone with zero links, as much as I'd support the signing!

Excellent signing for Diego Simeone.

At €45m that represents terrific value.

It'll be interesting to see what we end up paying for our full backs.
