Given they have Chilwell and the Rat already, it doesn't seem like a good career move for the lad. He'll definitely play first team football with us as Estupinan won't play every game

Anyone know what Argentinians do when they see a ginger? They have to touch their left ball. And no this isn’t a joke.
The Argentina guy next to me at work told me (we have 3 gingers at work).

I mean I find this funny but replace ginger with black and it would seem 10 times worse.
Messi had to tell the Argentina squad to stop calling Mac a ginger. So glad that he put an end to that awful teasing.
I can’t remember what the word they used for him was though.
"Colo".

I hadn't heard that before so just looked into it and he's not having you on. Sounds like the redheads get a fair bit of stick in Argentina.

Copa Libertadores is on BBC3 right now, with Barco featuring for Boca.

Barco playing further up the pitch as a winger. Having a quiet game though looks a good player.
Personally I’d love us to sign the Boca right back and goal scorer, Advíncula. Looks a character!

Heard Tim Vickery on Talk Sport earlier this week suggesting this lad will be going to Man City in January, and never mentioned us.

Substituted, so not involved in extra time. Fluminese player scores great (potential winning) goal - and is sent off for leaving the pitch! SA football is a bit mental - no wonder some of them take time to settle in the PL!

Sadly he’s one of the few journalists I really rate and trust the opinion of. Oh well.

Just came off after 70 minutes (bit of cramp) for Boca against Newells. Played as an left midfield/inside left, yeah very good, strong, good motor, takes the free kicks. I think he'd do well over here, I hope we can get him.

He got Enciso all wrong at least he admits it. He wouldn’t play for City seems a waste apart from the pay check of course.
Can’t see City grabbing Barco AND Maatsen. Hopefully will grab the former.
Chelsea star 'will jump at completing Man City move' after deal agreed
Football Insider has learned that Chelsea ace Ian Maatsen would be keen to join reported suitors Man City if they were to launch a move for his signature.
