Be hard pushed to find upgrades on any of our oldies,just different i thinkI don't think Pep will allow us to think in terms of replacements, rather in terms of upgrades.
Stats bomb take on Rodri's comparison with Fernandinho

I'm curious how long we'd let him think the move through before forcing a decision. If this is anything like our transfers of the last few years we've been working on this for at least a few months now and even though the window just opened he's been aware of our interest for some time. Maybe I'm being a pessimist but if the reports are true and he doesn't know what he wants to know by now I'm a little skeptical it gets done.
Yeah who knows, if we're going to miss out I hope we do early enough that we can try to sign Ndombele instead. Llorente isn't doing it for me.I can understand your thoughts and the writing does look on the wall, but I don't feel we've lost out on any the players who didn't end up here.

Imagine having the opportunity of a lifetime and needing time to “think it through.”
I hope either these reports are wrong or he gets his mind right and makes a decision.
