Anyway, once this one gets confirmed I think that's us done unless Coutinho leaves and I suspect the hold-up on that is us waiting for the player we want as a replacement, Qatari window closes on the 18th so no rush from their side right now.

Yes and it has to be Felix or Fati doesn’t it?

If Villa want A Fati to play for them I could do it.

With the loss of Ming's, we are clearly short of bodies at the back. Given that neither Torres or Carlos have much Premier League experience, Lenglet makes complete sense.

That's our 2 loan allowance filled. I suspect we've finished our business.

Yep, I think those 2 are most likely, with Torres and Chiesa the only other names that have been linked that could be options.

Fati linked with Spurs and Chelsea.
Maybe he wants to head to London, so we should double our efforts to tell him to look at our great second city instead, hey Fati Brum, Brum.

I still reckon a striker of some sort will come in. Probably nowt else though.

I want to sign Ansu Fati for the potential chants.

To the tune of lip up fatty

Skin them Fati
Skin them Fati
Fati Skin them

Score one Fati
Score one Fati
Fati Score one

The potential was endless.

We needed a defender and a forward to be covered. Defender is in, if we can get a forward that can take some of the minutes out of Diaby we're well set.

No matter who we sign there's always a post asking for one more.

I know Mbappe and Messi have arrived but I feel we could do with one more forward Haarland perhaps?

You're the one for me, Fati.
