Who gives a fuck. Get the **** in. He'll improve an already outstanding team.

aside from cucu, who else are we targetting? zinchenko's leaving so that leaves only cancelo (a right footer) in the LB position

Said Kane was a done deal last summer. Complete chancer

No doubt he's a chancer, but, Everyone said Kane was a done deal last summer. People even claimed they knew the figures involved.

Apart from MattyB if I remember right, he claimed he had heard it wasn't on, and he got a bit of shit for it. Billyshears ended up being the only one that got shit for being wrong on Kane. Possibly because of how, passionately shall we say, he argued it with anyone that dared question it.

If its who we want then who am I to disagree but he's very "meh" to me.

Heard that's why we signed Haaland

2 out of 3, not bad (guess who's missing...).
We even have a good kid for LB in JWE.

Looking at the minutes, another LB would be surplus.
Cucu should have about 1,000 more minutes than Zin (had 1,840 mins),
Aké should easily play more (had 1,740 mins), while Cancelo should reduce at LB (had 2,800) and play more at RB (had 1,800).

Per position you can calculate about 5,400 minutes per season (that's 60 full matches which is near maximum).
Take a sheet and do your own split per position, it helps understand how Pep is managing game time.

Pep concentrates his subs on mostly mid and forwards for fresh legs in the creative parts, so 1 additional player at LB would cost a lot and would only make sense expecting injuries. Obviously we trust our medical department and try to optimize our squad (and sign players with a general versatility to cope longer injury phases).

Mendy will be cleared in court and rejoin the team ;)

If that happens, there'll be panic on the streets of East Manchester!

Morrissey agrees.
