TBH I'm not sure another central mf is what we need. We already have dier, waynama, dembele and winks in cm and there's the continuing speculation about Barkley.... unless that deals dead of course

very curious to know what @Hercules, @Trix and others think. Does Pape negate the need for Barkley or do we go for both? My 2 cents is we get both...

First to admit I've never seen him play. All summer I've thought Barkley is probably coming, I just wonder if Levy is saying cut the price or I'll sign this guy instead. Would any of us want this guy over Barkley, even if he sounds like he's got potential?

I don't think it's an either one or the other.
Barkley is a proven EPL player. This is a kid that's just broken into a Spanish team with plenty of potential.

I agreed with your post, although I should say that when we were in for Dele Alli I remember saying something along the lines of "why are we in for another centre midfielder, when we already have Mason and Benteleb" :)
