Ideal then

Would be the most naturally gifted player we've had this century. But the concern is how often we would have him available. He's had a lot of recent injuries.

But given his ability, it's worth the risk for me no question.

Then this would also be my biggest concern. Can we afford another top earner earning huge wages but barely plays?
 
It would be an audacious move, but you'd wonder about his apetite for hard work and graft here. Even with the right attitude, a player with his background would be looking at the players around him, and it would be hard not to be frustrated once he was in amongst them. I wonder what Richarlison makes of us, when he can join up with the Brazil squad.

No doubting his quality though, and I guess even with a bit of nonchalance here and there, if he contributed goals it would be very welcome.
 

This is massive if it comes off, the majority of the teams in the premier league are bang average, all you need is a bit of something about you to beat them. If we get these three players in we've made massive strides forward. Hopefully we'll get at least one more in too.

He's showing Neymar Anthony Gordon's youtube highlights to help him improve his game.

Jimmy and Carlo partnership. 3rd time he'll be playing under him so he'll feel wanted.

No worries about him performing. And like Carlo he's not coming for a payday as they'd go elsewhere

....ok, I’m on it.
 
I think with the new sponsors, they’d push for a known player to also give them exposure in the world. It won’t be long before Cazoo is global, they’ll have a business model / 5 yr plan and would be asking Q’s of EFC. We don’t have euro footy to generate additional revenue or club exposure so only way is through a big name player and media. I imagine along with Mina more of our games may be shown in Columbia and the like. If JR happens it will be a wider business decision. Just need to see past wages and “resale” value, which I know a lot on here are really hung up on.
