Marc Cucurella

[eversince 76]

If Zinchenko stays, what’s the use of getting Cucurella. Than again I think Pep hasn’t enough trust in Zinchenko. Not have loads on here other than sympathy for his country’s situation.

Pity as Zinchenko has a lot going for him and he is imho the best LB in the squad. Furthermore I think the inclusion of Haaland might be to the good of Zinchenko’s style of play.

Cucurella might be good or better than either Zinchenko or Cancelo, but that is what he needs to prove. So far he has done well in his first PL season for Brighton. And that’s it.

If Zinchenko leaves (and from the players’ point of view the time is there) than I happily welcome Cucurella and see how he turns out after settling in.

It will have been a social media team.

If his social media team liked those tweets/posts without his express permission he should fire them.

This would be a very encouraging development if it were in any way true.

Unfortunately it’s in the Sun.

If it's not Martin Blackburn from The Sun I can't trust it.

If it's not Martin Blackburn from The Sun I can't trust it.

It's not even Martin's son from Blackburn so that should tell you how unreliable it is

It's not even Tony Blackburn so that should tell you how unreliable it is

To comment on this: Just like with Leeds and Phillips, City just doesn’t randomly bid themselves forward to an agreement. When City bid they know it’ll be accepted after negotiations

It sounds like Brighton are playing hardball and are reluctant to sell. I really hope we can get this over the line as Cucurella has all the attributes we are looking for in a top class lb, however we all know City will look elsewhere if Brighton overprice the player.
