Luiz is uselss at defendng so he'd fit right in at Arsenal. He's like a clone of Mustafi, chasing the ball and diving in without being aware of anything else happening around him.
If he's under £10m then it's not bad as a short term option though.
On the flip side he’s probably better at dealing with the press and may even distribute the ball better than Xhaka...
Granted that doesn’t mean much when he’s constantly charging out of position.
Don’t know how United have managed to bag 73m for Lukaku.
Very underwhelmed with the Luiz signing but hope to be proved wrong. I guess he fills a gap until Holding is back up to speed.
Glad Tierney looks to be happening. If that goes through and we get an experienced CB then overall it's been a decent summer.
We're finally clearing some of the dead wood as well so fair play to Raul for that
8m confirmed by Orny just now. Both players to have medicals today so sounds like its just the formalities now.Originally Posted by GP
At least we haven't had to overpay, with clubs knowing our desperate situation that could have easily happened. Sounds like the Rugani deal was a bullet dodged.

8 million say BBC.
Spuds are also close to a Dybala deal according to Ornstein.
Pretty good business from them really if they get him on top of Ndombele and Lo Celso.
£8m isn't bad to to be fair. We had to get someone in after Koscielny fucked off.
Emery did say we tried to sign 'important, expensive' defenders so hopefully we can get one in next summer.
Decent price really with half recouped from Captain Cunts sale.
Has to be Luiz and Sok as the first choice pairing this season?
Think we’ll be back in for Upamecano at some point. He’ll only have one year left next summer. Leipzig were pretty stupid to insist on such a high price as his value is only going down from this point.
