Maybe,but given we pretty much had to wait till their extortionate contracts ran out,we had little choice to do anything earlier i suspect.As for Sagna,he was a great short term signing.We should've planned this better, but instead kept the old fullbacks, signed an old Sagna, and now are scrambling for FBs.

As for the 'scrambling' comment? We have just signed the best English right back and are in the process of securing one of the worlds most sought after left backs......hardly the actions of a club struggling to target players.
Ive not seen anything of him,but apparently he can play,effectively,in 3 positions.I really don't see how he would worth 35M.
I can't see nothing special about him.
I haven't seen a single report of the fee being £35M. Either £26M or €30M.I really don't see how he would worth 35M.

I dont think it will be a big deal,IMO,his quality and natural athleticism will see him upto speed in quick time.Yeah 2nd part was a big overreaction on my part. Just wish the business was done so he would be getting a proper pre-season with the team.
Why are you personally embarrassed?I feel a bit embarrassed that we are spending that much on a back-up RB. And despite it not working out at Madrid. He is by all accounts a highly rated talent.
If we sign Mendy and Bertrand as well. We will have spent about 150m on FB's this season.
