I know what you mean, but he does look very high quality indeed. Smooth was the word that I heard around me in WSL.
And funny you should mention Vicente. At one point in the centre of the pitch he lifted the ball over the oppo player and then picked the ball up again from a one two. It totally...
Shame he couldn't take his big chance, but he looks like he could be as good as we'd hoped. He is quick, no doubt.
He made a number of little runs off the shoulder of the last defender - not always seen by the ball carrier. Our feeders from midfield are going to love having him in front of them.
Normal practice is to pay loan wages until end of June (even though the season ends in May). This fits with typical player contracts.
Wouldn't be a surprise if Barca are asking us to pay June at the end of the contract. That might be the confusion. Unlikely they want us to pay June 2023.
Is the Amex groaning under the weight of European shirts, to be revealed when Fati is paraded this morning wearing one?
Might explain why first team shirts are hard to come by, with Albion wanting to flog euro specials instead?
I know it's obvious, but we're seeing that RdZ does have an influence on our recrutiment and appears to be driving our ambition - with the knowing support of TB of course.
It shows how important RdZ is as move move to the next stage. Not just as a tactical innovator, but as a magnet for talent. I loved them both, but not sure Chris Hughton or sucky teeth had this pull.
