Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

[parj]

I'm glad we did the loan. If he does well then it will be £44m well spent. If he doesn't work out then it's £3m well spent as it saves us £41m.

The Skriniar links were to get benfica to sell us their best CB.

Seems a likeable guy. Also, a quote like this suggests an intelligent player:

Regarding the language barrier, he also spent time on loan at Monaco, so should be able to converse even basically with our French speakers Lloris, Aurier, Sissoko, Ndombele, Lo Celso

When is the last time we signed a Brazilian number 9 type of striker?

yesterday

For £41m?

Its about 38m less the loan fee so not that bad. I think it was Trix or someone else mentioned getting some value knocked off for Gedson. I wouldn't be surprised if we did a double deal next summer for both of them.

He definitely speaks intelligently that's for sure. Physical ability wasn't the only remit for José this summer. The mentality of the players he has brought in is evident to see. Vinicius speaks of at one point wanting to quit, but then realising it was his last chance and a do or die situation. He was backed into a corner and succeeded. I like him a lot.

Max is £41m. The wording is confusing, but it's £3m deposit and a total of £41m to purchase.

Hence reported as £38m option

So how did we miss the plane journey? We need to improve our Flight Tracker skills.

You're telling me that with all the junior air traffic controllers on here that no one realised this was happening or a way in which to look back on flights as to when this happened?

Not good enough.

Is he eligible to play against United?

He’d do well in the porn industry

 

[hughy]

Might have already been asked, but are the rules the same with international loans in regards to him not being able to play for us if, in the unlikely event, we meet Benfica in the knockouts of the Europa? Or is it at their discretion?

Games will be that much more enjoyable knowing every tackle on / by Kane might not mean the end of our season.

maybe he hitchhiked his way here and that's why the transfer took so long.

Good question. Would have to been signed by 12 midday I think. I wonder what time it went through.

 

[St José Dominguez]

Speaks well in the interview, I like his positivity and clearly he has had to work hard to get to where he’s at. Keep up that fight and think he could help a lot here, got a good feeling at the very least he’s gonna be a real threat off the bench.
