Jhon Lucumi - Transfer Rumour

[Balti Man]

Has that carrier pigeon got back to us from bologna with their response yet?

Yes. The response read, "The football club of the munchers of spaghetti cares not for the insatiable appetite of the ogre from the North Eastern lands of the Premier. Its hunger must be sated elsewhere since the left footed defensive wonder will not be released from the confines of Bologna's city walls.

The Swiss man with coffers overflowing may not send the steel bird to collect the wonder. The release will not be granted".

What's the latest? Bored of listening to the saga at Newcastle.

Ive never heard the audio of that and its exactly how i imagined it. Amazing

Mukiele and reinildo are not CBs. They can just provide cover.

Bringing in Lucumi allows us to have Lucumi Ballard Alderete O9 as main CB options

Seelt gets a loan maybe. If not O9 covers a few positions.

We’ve only got one top CB and that’s Alderete. Ballard could be but has to be consistent with fitness too

Like the club literally referenced Mukiele playing centre back in the press release when they signed him

Bologna are absolute arses. They’ve signed like 4 cbs but don’t want to let go of lucumi

Signed 4 this window?

 

[Diamond Eyes]

Bologna are absolute arses. They’ve signed like 4 cbs but don’t want to let go of lucumi

They’re like a Bond villain, stock piling the worlds centre backs to drive up prices

They are just playing a hard bargain. Trying to eek as much out of it as possible hoping we cave and give them more

 

[Sunderlandellight]

Everyone stop eating Spaghetti Bolognese until they release Lucumi. That will force their hand. No Lucumi, no Bolognese sauce for me!

Mentioned it as cover

He’s only ever played CB on the right side of a 3. Basically RB when the wing back bombs on.

He can provide cover there, but the fact we’re going for another CB should show that he is not the CB option

Where did it say cover? Literally didn’t say that

 

[Pacific]

this will run until the last day i reckon. trying to eek out as much as they possibly can. they will sell. don't think we're desperate though to go and just keep offering more to get it done earlier

 

[MadMackem7]

Where did it say cover? Literally didn’t say that

I meant it’s mentioned that he can play both, he is primarily a right back. And has played CB in the 3. Not the same as a 2

Should withdraw our offer for 24 hours and see how they react.

 

[Sunderlandellight]

Big Jhon has 2 more matches away to Roma and home to Como before the window shuts. After the internation break does he fancy playing away for the Bolognese Munchers at the San Siro or for the Mackem Wizards at Selhurst Park???

Should withdraw our offer for 24 hours and see how they react.

Even better, knock 1 million off the offer every day until the Bolognese Munchers start to panic.

 

[Billy Batts]

Seems strange no other club seems to be linked to such a highly rated player.

Shhhhhh

 

[poolie]

Alese is potentially class. Just needs a bit of luck with injuries.

Needs to go on loan for a season. The lad needs games

 

[Sunderlandellight]

Needs to go on loan for a season. The lad needs games

Needs someone to carry his crutches at the moment.

Every day closer to end of the window brings about the possibility of someone gazumping us
