Confirmed Signing Richarlison

Wtf is this club. £50m for about 12 good games in the PL. We're going to do a Leeds on steroids here.
Tbf to the lad, he had played a full season of Brazilian football before joining Watford and then instantly had to jump into the PL without a rest which meant he was fatigued after Christmas.
 

Not the statement signing you’d hope for. Don’t wanna sound doom and gloom, he’s a decent player but when sought after players like Malcom are going for less it’s disappointing.
 
Every price is madness these days though
Sure but Watford paid 11m for him only a year ago. Let’s go buy 4 similar young talents and if we hit on even one of them it’s worth it. This just seems very very desperate and also makes me think Mola is on the way out,
 
Tosun
Richarlison Gylfi Theo

Sign an actual midfielder who can give them the ball and an actual defender who doesn't need to retreat into his own box to survive, and then they might actually get some service.
That's a decent forward line to be fair.

Just have to blank your mind when it comes to their transfer fees.
 
He's a good player with a lot of potential but I'm not even sure he's worth half of the reported fee. One season at Watford has seen him go from an 11m player to 40m+ despite not having a particularly great season. It's the exact type of deal we criticise other clubs for.

That being said he's certainly an improvement on what we have, gives us an extra dimension (very strong in the air) and it's nice to see us flex our financial muscle again. Just not convinced there isn't much better value abroad...you know the reason we appointment a supposed top DOF.

Tosun and Gylfi are too much suited to a Alladyce style club imo. Would rather Lookman behind the forward and a pacey centre forward coming in with DCL out the door and Niasse/Tosun back ups.
 

The better sources are stating the fee could rise to 50m, assuming part of the fee is also compo to finish the Silva claim by Watford, then it is probably gonna be more like 40 we are paying and a fair but of that based in clauses.

If we get the same level of performance as he had under Silva, then it isn't gonna be money wasted.

Most would prefer Malcolm by the diunds if Twitter and in here of, a lad I'm guessing 95% have never even seen play or even heard of before last week.

£50m tho? Surely there's better out there for less. I just hope Silva knows his man and the quality he can bring.

Anyone else signed Malcom? Or Tierney? Or Mina? .............Yet:cool:
