Fabinho

[Thaksinssoldier]

Go after Mbappe(knowing Monaco don't want to sell him) to come out with the player we really want, Fabinho. Txixi 101.Chuffed if it's done.

Hmmmm,so midfield or fullback?

Given the Walker speculation it can only be the middle.

Perfect signing
Midefield and also cover right back when walker is injured

I would be very happy with this, his name ends with "inho" so he must be good :)

Great news! An excellent signing.

He also looks a little bit like Kompany on that picture so i'm sold :)

Seriously though I would be very happy with him, he looks a quality player and would strengthen a couple of areas considerably where we have been struggling.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Great news if true, cover 2 positions excellent player

 

[Hungarian blue]

I was gonna post the tweet immediately but then thought fuck it, somebody else who actually knows whether the journo is reliable will share that knowledge along the tweet too. But this coming from Ric was beyond my expectations. :) Getting a wee bit excited.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Would be perfect with his versatility.

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Gerard Romero is extremely reliable. Fantastic signing. Could be first choice DM and cover RB when Walker injured?

 

[Gabriel]

Good fit. His instinct is to get the ball and move it forward quickly, and that is something we've sorely missed in the middle since Gundogan's injury.

 

[razman]

Well well, if Sandro and fabinho come thru.... We may have finally solved our biggest concern

 

[Neville Kneville]

Fernando's replacement & backup rb rather than first choice rb ?

 

[Wrighty Wrexham]

Yep goalkeeper!!

 

[razman]

Yep goalkeeper!!

Haha, yes... But the full backs have been a problem for a while

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

But he won't come (:

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Fernando's replacement & backup rb rather than first choice rb ?

I'd think so mate. He played right back for the first time in ages against Lille when Mendy was out, and did a good job. Sidibe switched flanks and played on the left.

 

[Benarbia]

Don't think he's being bought with right back in mind. Think that will be Walker

 

[Silva_Spell]

DM options: Fabinho / Toure / Fernandinho
RB options: Walker / Fabinho / Fernandinho

Reckon he could do a good job at CB too

 

[MCFC1993]

Buzzing with this! A very good right back and midfielder, I hope it's true.
