Yeah it's true - Lo Celso was obviously earmarked as the more attacking option and we were crying out for a Dembele replacement so who better than Ndombele?You make a some good points although it was clear when we bought Lo Celso It was meant as an Eriksen replacement to play as a 10 or in the attacking roles rather than 8. If he was signed as an 8 I would have been fully behind signing Fernandes as well.
Although I’m sure this conversation will be redundant when both Lo Celso establish themselves as some of the top midfielders in the prem next season.
Just a shame things didn't work out a bit differently, but either way we've signed a huge talent so can't be too disappointed.
