Marc Cucurella

[Mr Kobayashi]

Everyone saying this will effect future players from signing for Brighton, however they

It will still be £50m.

Is that you Mystic Meg?

 

[Claytop]

As much as I dislike the diving twat Cancelo was up against one of the best players in the world today, there is nothing to suggest Cucurella would have contained him any better.

 

[Tokyo32]

Just pay the fucking money. I cant go a whole season of watching Cancelo lose the ball up the pitch trying to be clever and them doing us on the break.

How can you blame cancelo for that ?

Maybe you can say he wasn’t that good defensively and left Salah with too much time on the ball but I am sure walker was worse in terms of losing the ball forward.

 

[Damanino]

not sure why we ok to offer 40m maybe with some addons on top and not 50m.

we overspent so much on Grealish, at least 30% probably, hard to play this image we will walk away if valuation is obscene.

Also Cucurella was happy to sign a 5 year deal without any optional clause built into, players and agents either need to be clever these days thinking of all options or get themselves into situations like this.
he was not so brave to tell Brighton to put a 30-40m guaranteed buyout fee last summer was he?

if we want him, lets pay the 50, maybe 45+5, or move onto plan B. we do need a LB either way. we needed one before Zinchenko left imo, especially now.

 

[117 M34]

So, my reasoning: is there a better Lb we can Target next year? If yes we shouldn't pay for cucurella. But if no I think we should pay for cucurella . He is attacking FB and good defensively. He knows pep's style. We need attacking depth in wide Position. If cancelo doesn't work we have no one to bring in. At least last season we had zinchenko

Presuming there is a great left back available next year, what are you doing about left back position for this season?

I mean you can take a gamble. Like we did with the striker position

 

[Rammy Blue]

Trent Alexander-Armstrong's defending isn't much better to be honest and he is meant to be one of the best left-backs in the Premier League

Christ. Where to start, can I have some of whatever you are drinking/smoking?

 

[Thenumber1blue]

Cancelo‘s defending hasn’t been good for the majority of his time here, Dias and Laporte cover for him. There’s a reason Pep chose Zinchenko over him in the big games.

Fuck me he's about ten levels above zinchenko

 

[RayCTID]

I am being serious there isn't much difference between Cancelo (who hasn't been playing in his natrual right back position for most of his City career) and TAA

 

[applejuice]

His price is going up by the minute here.

Yeah just pay it now ...it will be double after next week
