This exactly. Also have to remember we don’t always buy players for what they currently are but what we feel they can become.

We are only allowed four English players unless home grown. Any more go onto the foreign quota and already having Ake, Stones, Grealish, Walker, Sterling and Carson in the squad, the fact that Rice is English becomes irrelevant.Yes Fernandinho was a converted N⁰8 box to box player who made CDM his own. Rice is a good looking option, but the money WHU want is nuts. Am I right in saying Rice is in the final 18 months of his contract?
Again, the one who stands out most to me is Aurelien Tchouameni. It's no coincidence Real, the Dippers & City have been mentioned as admirers, because the guy is that good.
HOWEVER Rice fulfils the homegrown quota which will also come in handy, plus he's known nothing other than the PL, so apart from having to order a Pickfords Van, settling & getting used to the PL shouldn't pose any major issues.

Agreed! Played 50 games all season! Although like 10% of those are from pure DM. Probably gonna do a “Fernandinho” on him if we sign him.Possibly to avoid an injury that could jeopardize a transfer...

I was reading stories in the Brazilian media from when we signed Fernandinho to remember what was said when he left Donetsk. Every article called him a DM. I’m not sure why people are under the impression he became a DM here? Even when he played in Brazil awhile back he was split between DM mostly and CB. Nunes is not going to be signed to be a 6 because he isn’t a especially good 6. Why do I have the feeling the club’s name is being used (yet again)? It’s funny because just yesterday the Brazilian fanpage that “broke the story” about Enzo Fernandez FINALLY backtracked and admitted the bullshit and that it won’t happen. But it lasted enough to link us with him in the mediaAgreed! Played 50 games all season! Although like 10% of those are from pure DM. Probably gonna do a “Fernandinho” on him if we sign him.
