So we will have Dele sat on the bench instead? Good stuff. I agree with you, in theory. Not necessarily about Bruno Fernandes, I'm not sure he's better than what we have. But in theory you need two quality players for each position to win stuff - Realistically we're incapable of achieving this. We don't have the finance or pulling power to pull it off.
No, we're not incapable, the whole point of building a stadium (and the training facilities) is to compete with the top teams. The Mourinho recruitment everything is for one reason ... Otherwise we're literally standing still.

We already have GLC who can't get a game for us ahead of Dele as an attacking midfielder. Why do we need to add another? I'd much rather we upgraded on Lucas/a wide forward. It'd make much more sense.

Agreed.

We need someone who play right sided attacking role.

Dele plays behind Kane and if he was unavailable we could switch to more of a 4-3-3.

Moura has shown himself to be far too inconsistent for me.

On the other side we have Son and Sessegnon so we’ll stocked there.

Why is this thread still open? Jose has said clearly we are not interested. If that is not ITK I dont know what is.

Would actually be pretty disappointed if we signed him. He's not a bad player but considering we're in need of strengthening in quite a few positions (especially in defence) it would be weird if we did spend a lot of money in a position where we have actually got pretty decent cover.

Why? We need to think not just of tomorrow's team but also of the squad in 6, 12 and 24 month's time. We know Eriksen is leaving, we know that we struggle for creativity without him... If JM has identified Bruno Fernandes as the solution to the problem, why not sign him now?
True, we also need upgrades at DCM and at the fullback positions but in January you have to wait and see what's available. Not signing a much needed playmaker because you need a holding midfielder more makes no sense to me...

Because Jose lies
I’ll be honest and say this is one of the main reasons I like Jose - he will say whatever he needs to get an advantage. Be it praise or trash the opposition, take the flack on himself to take the focus off the team - anything. A true winner.

You sure that's Jose who takes the flack on himself? He had always taken the credit when something is right; and it was always some other people's fault when things turn sour. Remember the lady medic at Chelscum?
