Would Mendy come as number 2 to Sandro?
Surely an issue with foreign player limit of 17 too?

Meant Bertrand obviously, but it's not far off is it? £61m for Sandro, £40m for Mendy, £20-25m for Bertrand.
Plus Mendy at 23 is a better player than Sandro at 23 when he was at Porto, and could well reach a new level under a coach like Pep - he might even be better than Sandro in a year or 2.
I'm conflicted, because obviously Sandro is the better player today, but I think I'd prefer the 2.
You seemed confident Mendy was signing last week on whatever information you had received, is that still the case?It's a dilemma - would you rather have Sandro and Kolarov as cover for one more year, or Mendy and Bertrand? I'd probably go for the latter, but it'd be a tough call. Not that it matters - pretty sure Sandro isn't an option anyway.

Cheers.Yeah, still expect him to sign.
Maybe... but mendy is very strongFor me, Sandro would be a better fit than Mendy for us.
