    [Albion] Valentín Barco **Signed 20/01/24**

    If he wasn't a future multi millionaire, I doubt the pretty young lady would be walking with the fella in a denim jester suit and a series 1 Blackadder barnet.

    I really like Gilmour and he has great touch, but for me he can still be a tad negative in playing backwards more than Ali Mac did. Ross Barclay and Ali Mac now have more forward impetus from the 6 role. Gilmour needs to back himself and go on a few more forward runs and hes got bundles of...

    If he's back from playing the Argentina U23 in mid Feb, then say at least a couple of weeks for RDZ to make a preliminary assessment. Would there be any loan window open even if we wanted too 🤔

    ?? Ultimately shirley we must pay it even if on paper Barco triggers it? I doubt young Colo yet has 10m$ and according to Romano, we already sent the money and Boca have it? Not that it really matters, but Boca have 10m and we are 10m lighter.

    Did MacAllister have one when he first came? I'm not sure he did. He did undoubtedly when we got him.to sign new contract before WC. And I doubt a release clause was the main issue with Kudus, but the vast gulf in £ notes on offer from WHU. Bloom is taking a risk, the lad will be playing...

    Theyre all great clubs with good history of developing young talents and you'd guess would be appealing to a young talented non european. However, the PL is the most watched league in world, allegedly the best competition and certainly one of the highest paying. I guess many of us know...

    Excellent points and thanks for expanding, yes you're right based on external perceptions.

    It certainly appears that way for the likes of Ale Mac, Caicedo, Trossard who were bought with first team intentions, but HKFC is also right, Blooms algorithm will still buy undervalued players, even if unlikely to feature for our first team, where a profit potential exists. Andi Zeqiri, right...

    Interesting too! see his 2 wonder goals and think yeah, but he made some defensive mistakes in recent weeks too. The other reason I thought that wasn't just ability, I had read before (and who knows if really true) that he's quite fragile mentally, has had confidence issues? Places like...

    With Solly out for a long while yet, and Barco seemingly able to play anywhere up the left side, its more likely he's been bought to cover that glaring hole in squad + provide extra options, than replace Estupinian/Mitoma.

    Estupinian is good, But I don't see him in a Liverpool or City team. Maybe he'll fancy a new challenge, but i personally reckon he'll stay here a while, he's loved, he's playing, there's a few SA boys here, and we're at a good level for him.

    money talks. ofc would be better. But rn they would have no loyalty to us I doubt, if someone shoved an extra 2m in their pocket. If and when the next prospect is at Boca, they'll still deal if the price is right for them. It was they who agreed the 10m buy out, it was also they (if stories are...
