Welcome Donnarumma!

[CΛL]

Trafford will be sold next year 100%, World Cup year, he’s signed thinking he’s going to be number 1 and we have absolutely fucked him over.

Can’t blame the club for jumping on the worlds best goalkeeper but I think we could even see him go in January, considering Ortega hasn’t gone.

Part of a swap deal for Livaremento in January perhaps?

We have gotten too used to enjoying signing with potential. I find it a good change to see someone signed who is already world class. Except an RB and some issues with outgoings I think the window hasn't been bad considering the squad.

Again, Trafford wasn't starting over Ederson either way this year.

 

[robbieh]

I’ve said it before he signed,it’s the equivalent of signing Buffon at 26. Unbelievable signing.

Having started at 16 not sure he'll still be playing in his 40s!

He most certainly was

99

Sounds flakey

 

[SWP's back]

Will wear 99 on the back of his shirt. The game's gone.

Clearly a big fan of Dickov's goal against Gillingham - but that doesn't sit right with me

I genuinely don’t think I could care any less what number anyone wears. It won’t affect my day, let alone my life in any way.

If Ederson had stayed chances are he wasn’t starting, but there was a clear pathway to becoming our first choice keeper. Unless there’s some major disaster or injury this signing completely blocks that.

Again I want him to do well. It does feel like this signing is for our next manager more than anything

Yeah. Was thinking this. Carrot to dangle to Newcastle.

Either way. Trafford hasn't been fucked over. Big new contract. Young and can move on if that's his want

 

[jrb]

All the negative comments under the BBC article about him signing for City are utterly insane and baffling.

 

[TFC]

Welcome big man. You'll need some protection though....

 

[SWP's back]

Been skeptical throughout but its done now so I get fully behind it and see with intrigue how we adapt.

As an aside, City claim he is 6ft 5 so we get an answer to Traffords height soon enough when we see pictures of them training together, I'm still not having Trafford as 6ft 6.

It's surely unlikely he starts the derby, might not even have a training session with us before it, maybe Napoli or potentially Arsenal, either way its a baptism of fire debut.

I’ll put £10 of mine against yours that he starts the derby.

I’m happy about Donnaruma but you can also be disappointed for Trafford at the same time lmao

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Gonna feel a lot more secure and comfortable seeing this big fucker lining up in the tunnel for the derby and if you aren't you're fucking lying to yourself.

Welcome Gigi.

 

[pudge]

Obviously in the minority but I couldn't care less about how Trafford is feeling

If you're not willing to compete for your position you're at the wrong club

 

[mosssideblue]

Welcome big fella. Delighted you signed for us

 

[Blue Hefner]

I like it. He raises the floor of the squad. With his experience, he should bring a winning mentality to go along with Haaland, Rodders etc

He fills the goal and gives me confidence. But let’s see

 

[PistonBlue]

Great signing, welcome Gigi

 

[SWP's back]

Welcome. Hope he lives up to the somewhat unreal expectations on here.

What you on about? According to his transfer thread, the expectation of half the cunts is that when he tries to kick the ball, he’ll miss it and fall over and will never be able to make a five yard pass to Stones or Rodri.
