Brilliant. Might as well close the thread as some random bloke has valued two players.What stats do you want?...I have one for you...Cucurella will move for a minimum of 45 mil and Zinny will go for under 40...you're welcome...
Bonkers...Even as an out and out full back Zinchenko is better. Cucurella may only be better defensively and may have a better turn of pace, but aside that Zinchenko is far more capable and technically sound.

Good footballer and great servant to the club but pep clearly doesn't rate him as good enough to start. He has had some great game and brilliant moments but if pep would to go with Cucurella are even give Wilson-Esbrand a shout I trust him.
It's okay to want Cucurella, literally everybody here does...Bonkers...
But how can you be so utterly convinced he will outperform Zinchenko in attack who has already been playing for us for a while and shown how well he can make our attack tick, compared to a player who has never played for us.
There isn't enough information, and I'm betting you saw one tweet and some youtube videos and convinced yourself solely on that.

If that's what you're convinced of I can assure you you are misinformed...It's okay to want Cucurella, literally everybody here does...

No, I tried to get an informed opinion out of you.WTF are you even saying?...you sound like a jack ass tough guy...
Instead I got some mild abuse and a “let’s see what the market says” along with a lot of bravado.
If that is your stance, which you are entitled to, you literally don’t have an opinion until the market decides what happens.
Until then, you can decide in your head what will happen, but unless you are Txiki, you can’t possibly know.
What if Zinchenko stays and Cucurella doesn’t come? Does that make Zinchenko better in your world?
How exactly? Forget achievements. As a footballer Zinchenko is streets ahead of Cucurella, his IQ is far superior, it's why he was able to play as a left back despite being a number 10 in his early years. And he's doing it at a high level too, midfield or full back. He understands a very demanding role and does well, defensively he's still suspect but so are majority of modern fullbacks.Bonkers...
Is Cucurella better because he's from La Masia and had 1 good season at Brighton to warrant £50m? What's he better at than Zinchenko?
Delph was a stop gap but it didn't last because of injuries/age/form. Zinchenko has survived multiple seasons. He's adjusted under Pep to become the player that he is and it works really well. If availability and injury record is your concern that's a whole different argument, but in a footballing level people seem to misunderstand that a player like him isn't some stop gap, there have been multiple windows where we could easily get a left back but we stuck with him, and then Cancelo had the season he did. So all this chat of us needing one is great but £50m on one from a midtable club within league has to result in him being the best left back in the league and I think Cucurella has got some ways to go before he gets there.Zin has been a great servant and is a top man but let’s be honest, he is a stop gap solution who has overachieved, just like Delph.
It is a testament to him that he has survived so long but we have sacrificed much more talented players this summer.
I suspect we are going to set up slightly differently next year to get the most of Haaland and also Grealish, Foden etc
That will need specialist full backs which Zin sadly isn’t
