Di Marzio says it's done.

Didn't want Alex Sandro anyway.

Oh Tom, how brave you are.

Does it show my age when Emerson goes with Fittipaldi to me?

Actually, Val, you don't look TOO bad for 63.

Awwww you flatter me as usual

Sshh, not everyone needs to know, least of all Beerqueen. She has her eye on you since you bought her a pint.

I'm happy with the signing, think he's suitable to rotate with Alonso. 

 

[Imran_CFC]

The way things are going this window I won't be surprised if he failed his medical.

It’s Lake and Palmer for me, about the era.

So why are we actually getting him so cheap? Is it purely his recent injury? Find it strange Roma aren't trying harder to keep him if he's got quality.

 

[mad_mac]

wild range of cost being touted here.  I've seen a 4 year deal worth 2.5mill a year, to 20mill plus bonuses

Looks pretty average, don't think he'll displace Alonso any time soon.

Its not just about displacing Alonso (who btw has been great) but giving him rest for FA cup games or other PL games before lets say the barca CL games. Basically a better back up.

We didn’t need to piss away money for a 3rd LB to do that. Kenedy/Rahman could have done that just fine. 

I agree with Zeta, I am underwhelmed.

Alonso not that great either, its only his fantastic free kicks that make him look better than he is. If i remember correctly Fiorentina fans weren't exactly disappointed he was leaving to us where as Roma fans seem to rate this lad.
