Yeah good point, I cant think of many more although Watford have signed a few such as Richarlison and Joao Pedro. Bayer Leverkusen also have a pretty good record, Lucio, Ze Roberto, Palacios, Alario, Hincapie and Paulinho

Yeah they're probably the best when you look at the list of players. They've signed Falcao, James Rodriguez, Hulk, Luis Diaz and Anderson direct from South American sides. Although Real Madrid's have probably won more trophies. Real Madrid - Higuain, Vinicius Jnr, Rodrygo, Robinho and Marcelo...

I'm all for pro-albion sentiment but I think to say we're the best in Europe at recruiting from South America is a bit short sighted. We do seem to do it the best out of the premier league teams but other European teams like Benfica, Porto, Shaktar and Real Madrid have been doing it since we...

Anyone know why Alzate didn't make the squad yesterday? The bench looked decent and had every position covered so not sure who I would have dropped for him, just wondering if he has an injury or something. If he isn't likely to make the matchday squad I wonder if he will be asking for a loan to...

Haha I would love to, but living in Cornwall makes it difficult to get to many. Admittedly, I couldn't have picked many that are further away but it was 21 hrs total travelling time, I didn't get back home until 7am this morning.

For a variety of reasons, this was my first live game since we were promoted to the premier league and it certainly didn't disappoint! Great atmosphere in the away end and thoroughly enjoyed taking the mick out of the Man U fans and seeing their miserable faces on the way out and travelling...

Now there's a plan, play 12 men!

I was having doubts about his personality too when it sounded like he and/or his dad had negotiated their way out of signing for us. I doubt any of the other clubs are offering more money and we offer the opportunity to showcase his talents in the premier league. The sensible thing to do would...

Currently being battered with thunderstorms in Cornwall, can’t complain the garden needed some rain

Got a couple of tickets, thanks for your advice. Do they check ID against the name on the ticket?

Thanks very much, I’ll be on it first thing tomorrow ��

Could someone advise how many tickets are left? Also what time tomorrow will they go to purchase history? Is it midnight or like 8am? Sorry for all the questions, I haven’t bought a ticket for a few years

What’s the chances of this going to purchase history? I’d rather not pay for my Albion + if I can

I think we probably are looking to strengthen or centre back options, Ostigard and Duffy are probably leaving, and we sold Burn too. With other potential departures of Cucurella, Clarke, Van Hecke (loan?) Roberts (loan?). This guy maybe considered as an alternative to Colwill especially if...

Karbownick?

I think we're not far away from each other in our views, I certainly agree that Bissouma wasn't an out and out defensive midfielder. But there were a lot of times when he would use his strength to out muscle people and win the ball and I worry that at 5ft 8 Alexis just isn't able to do that as...

It's not that I don't rate him highly, I think he's quality, and is hugely important to the team. I can imagine him playing a slightly deeper role like a number 8, but he has played that majority of his career in the number 10 role. I don't think the squad number Argentina gave him has any real...

I think with that hole, we could do with some cover with similar physicality. In the not unlikely event that Mwepu is injured and Caicedo is rested we’d be vulnerable to being overrun in the central battles. I think Berge could do that job and will be a similar price to what we received for Biss

I like him a lot but he’s more of a number 10, he’s very neat on the ball but I don’t think he’ll ever be as good as Biss at breaking up play, just his physical attributes alone make that a challenge

I still think we need some cover in central midfield since bissouma’s departure. I rate caicedo very highly but he’s still inexperienced, mwepu has had his injury problems and Moder is out for a while. I don’t really see Mac Allister, Lallana, Alzate or Gross playing the same role regularly or...
