Can't believe he is only 19 years old. 20m is great value, could become one of the best in the world.

Will be hard to sign, especially with the amount of big clubs in need of a good left-back. Think it'll be between us, Chelsea and United all vying for his signature. Hopefully the Pep factor can sway it in our favour, (if we are interested in him)

His bro is another promising playerGood. Lets get him then. But keep his brother the fuck away.

"Beating his girlfriend"
She attacked him and his car with her keys when he came home one night because she thought he was cheating on him, he restrained herforcefully and they both got arrested. His injuries were worse than hers.
In court they both got given the same sentence - 30 days community service and she got made to pay for the car damage.
It's not a great thing to be in the news about, but saying he beat his girlfriend is wildly inaccurate.
It's also not "politics" either.

Theo Hernandez would be immense really, he is very rapid and is top notch on the ball, his crossing is terrorizing and is a very good header of the ball which is always great.He is a Eden Hazard who can also defend. I think Atleti would be stubborn to let him go but even if there is a tiny little chance to get him, then we should go balls deep for him.
Imagine having him and Sane on our left side running at defenders.
He's got a great deal to learn looking at those highlights...
Has the tools but needs to get his head up and sort his final ball..
We have a major job on at full back(s) in the summer, we need at least 3 and imo 2 established pros, otherwise it could be another transitional 12 months.
Can you not get the blowtorch out, Zin to help persuade a couple of decent fullbacks to join the revolution? I'm not even arsed which ones, any will do! :-)He's got a great deal to learn looking at those highlights...

Fabinho, Maffeo, Bernat, Henrichs would be my pick for our fullbacks next season,He's got a great deal to learn looking at those highlights...

The funny thing is, Pab, is that any half decent fullback in this side, this year, would of seen us clear at the top, there's no doubt in my mind....
My preference is rose and an understudy on the left, the right I haven't a scooby...
I will add though that a world class centre back will free up our variations, with 3 at the back and 2 wing back roles, possibly for sane and sterling!

Not sure on Fabinho, mate and think we can forget about Henrichs!

Rose could certainly be a possibility. There's strong rumours that Pochettino wants Shaw, Rose is a northern lad too so he may come.
I really find it hard to believe that City will find it difficult to strengthen in the full back position. We have had a long time to sort this out, and if it's not possible to get the ideal man in, then get a player in at age 30, or a young player

I'd just be worried on the numbers, it's ok saying it's 'not our money' but poch is an extremely capable coach, I wouldn't give him money to play with..
Couldn't agree more with that first sentence. However poor we've been at times and however many chances we've missed, two capable full backs would have made more difference than any other position on the pitch.The funny thing is, Pab, is that any half decent fullback in this side, this year, would of seen us clear at the top, there's no doubt in my mind....

I live in hope that this Summer is finally the one where we sort it, and sort it proper. No makeshift, make do for now, but two top quality players who can give us that push we need for our next steps.

Spot on. Quality rather than quantity has to be key. Pep fullbacks have to provide width and a threat at all times. Clichy and Sagna do the opposite. Hoping it was Henrichs and Rose/Gaya, but Zin seems to have dampened those rumours!
