I still want Rony Lopes back. Got a couple against Nimes in the cup the other night and another one in Paris today. Brazilian/Portuguese so would fit right in and can play anywhere across the front. Not too much to ask.

He looked very good. Brilliant goal. Loved him when he was at City, such a brilliant footballer. Not quite good enough for us at the moment, but I wish him a great careerI still want Rony Lopes back.

He’s been bedevilled with niggling injuries over the last couple of seasons, but when he’s got a run of games under his belt, he’s still an extremely good player. Tireless and great technique.I watched him a bit today and he looked lively
Eric Lamela would be a good target for shooting practice.
Pity because his style of play is arguably more suited to our style of play now than it was when we sold him; when we let him go we really favoured some expensive dross ahead of him. :-(He looked very good.

Some lad coaching at Olimpik Donetsk is apparently a dab hand.Anyone who can score a penalty every time.
He was never given a fair chance. Same with Denayer, Angelino.Pity because his style of play is arguably more suited to our style of play now than it was when we sold him; when we let him go we really favoured some expensive dross ahead of him. :-(
Thought it was the emergence of Dias that moved him on, as for Denayer i loved him but he wanted CB position so moved on, Zinchenko is was and always will be better than Angelino, all three are excellent players playing in leagues that suit them i wish them well but do not want them back.He was never given a fair chance. Same with Denayer, Angelino.
Brahim is 4+ years younger, I don't see how his emergence should impact a chance for Lopes. Denayer is a CB, was impressive on his loan at Celtic alongside VVD and didn't get chances to prove his worth. Angelino I don't think he got enough time or minutes to learn to be a Pep FB which is highly demanding.Thought it was the emergence of Dias that moved him on, as for Denayer i loved him but he wanted CB position so moved on, Zinchenko is was and always will be better than Angelino, all three are excellent players playing in leagues that suit them i wish them well but do not want them back.
He’s also very well spoken - just watched his post match interview from game today v Soton in which he scored a brilliant goal.Pedro Neto at Wolves is a wonderful footballer.
Brahim might be 4 years younger but was a special talent pretty sure he made his debut at 16? Denayer was excellent with us and Celtic, but our Manager wanted him to play RB and he did not want to, Angelino could not take a back up LB spot of Clichy or Kolarov and when he came back Zincenko or Mendy who was awful at the time,Brahim is 4+ years younger, I don't see how his emergence should impact a chance for Lopes.

Ndidi so many levels clear of them.Rice and Bissouma,maybe Luiz,are better
Bissouma has the technical superiority but Ndidi is clearly the best overall DM of the 4.Ndidi so many levels clear of them.
Sane yeah i know he is already gone but we did not replace
