2018/19 Yerry Mina

[Groucho]

I see his hamstring is fubar’d.

RIP in peace Yerry

It’s only a loan anyway so it doesn’t matter.

Right?

Or does that only apply when he’s playing well?

Disappointing that the Colombians disregarded what we told them, especially for the sake of two friendlies

Bought on the back of a decent World Cup. Laughed out of Barcelona. One of the worst defenders in the Premier League. Sell and bring in someone who can actually defend.

You don’t go to the game much do you ?

Obviously not impressed with the Colombians decision-making, but this campaign is a wash anyway. Hopefully this means no Copa in the summer and then a full pre-season, which would be ideal for him

Mina is the reason I have my doubts about Brands.

Digne is a proper footballer maybe not good enough for Barca or PSG but more than good enough for the Premier League. Gomes I have my doubts about but he clearly has quality and we got him on a try before we buy.

Mina is a ludicrous deal. Absolutely brain dead. Barca sign him for £10m and he barely plays then sell him to us for £30m. That is bad enough but you could just about accept that if there was the slight possibility that we could eventually cash in if he suddenly turned in to a steroid induced version of Ratcliffe and Stones. We can't, if he turns out to be a turd, Barca laugh at us.

If he turns out to be the reincarnation of Maldini then Barca just stump up the buyback and laugh even harder.

The ultimate Lose-Lose situation.

I counted four “ ifs “ there.

That’s a lot of “ ifs “

Even worse each ' if ' is currently costing us 7.5m.

4 x 7.5 mil doesn’t equal what we paid for him mate.
