Ferran Torres

[bugsyblue]

he is quoted as saying he wants/prefers to play on the left side

From the one YouTube video of him I’ve seen (so maybe take with a pinch of salt) he definitely looks like he’d be more deadly cutting inside on his right foot. He’s pretty two footed but his right definitely looks his strongest.

That was my thinking behind the Ronaldo comparison.

That's the inverted winger standard but he has mostly played on the right, to great effect

Nevertheless, he's versatile across the attacking front line. Many will see him strictly as a winger but for me he's an attacking midfielder

Think we'll sart off with Sterling Left Mahrez right, but as Torres gets established in the team I'd expect Sterling and Torres to be constantly swapping during games.

That would give defenses f#$king fits. I love it.

Have we announced a deal pending a medical in recent times? I know united even announce deals before personal terms are agreed, like Bruno.
“The deal is subject to a medical and the agreement of personal terms." We usually wait until we have pictures and such don't we? Might as well get i out there officially since all outlets are saying the same thing, but I understand the clubs view that they want pictures and video.

Garth Crooks' eyes have just bulged a little more after reading that.

We only paid 800k for this lad so if he goes for 10m its just more money off the Torres deal. Great moves all round.

I read that Yangel was moving there on a season long loan, as part of the deal.

Year loan with obligation to buy for 10m or option to buy I believe. I think he will do well there so be surprised if they don't take it next year when they have a bit more money.

Turning down Madrid for us makes complete sense if he wants to play. He’s got a great shot of getting games here and a move back to Spain later is always a possibility. He’s talented but he’d really have to bet on himself to crack Madrid’s winger rotation

I assume that because of COVID we probably won't learn much from watching planes, maybe he'll come to Manchester but I reckon it'll be announced while he's still in Spain.
