All evidence points towards our ownership and directors signed him as a favour to his agent.

Maybe we should do that MORE often, because some of our other signings have been worse. It seems like we sign a lot of players for odd reasons. We signed KDH to make Enzo Maresca happy? Omari Kellyman to help the Maatsen deal work?

I thought that it was to help Atleti raise their funds so they could buy Connor from us.

We could have done that by sticking with signing samu from them instead.

I'm not sure they have. Despite some sterling competition, Félix is definitely in with a shout of being the worst transfer in our history.

    The owners seeing how sh*t he was first time around on an overpriced loan to then go and buy him a year later is honestly hilarious.

    What's that saying, "fool me once..."

    I'm not gonna criticise the board too much with this one as it was clearly Mendes pulling strings again.

    Just get rid of asap and try to recover what little value he has remaining.

    Totally get why many want him binned, I think there's a good player in there.

    The problem is why was he even signed if the manager clearly doesn't rate him? What's the plan here exactly just keep sending him on loans for the rest of his contract... What a stupid f**king signing. Wouldn't mind him being given another chance but it's obvious the manager isn't going to play him, so we better pray and hope someone takes him off us.

    Apparently set a £21m asking price. That would be a brutal £24m loss in 1 season - I suppose slightly offset by any loan fee from Milan.

    They would still see a profit because they sold Gallagher for felix at the time if you count in Gallagher sale + 21M then it would surpass felixs sale but still why the fk would u even get him in the first place he didn’t even fit the system at all

    Can we please make this happen with Antonio Silva coming the other way. We could even possibly offer them a season long loan of Anselmino (Portuguese speaking) in addition.

    The only way Benfica can afford what we want is a player swap, its going to end up being another season long loan i imagine.

    How much do Benfica want for Silva or Araujo? Maybe a straight swap could work?

    Don’t even think we need a CB

    Right now I’d agree but In my opinion, we should look to move fofana on and get a centre back in. One of those 2 (or Scalvini) with Colwill and Chalobah and tosin as options suddenly makes me more confident. If I was in dreamland I’d move on badiashille and get a left sided centre back in as well.

    No one is buying Fofana in his current state or take on his wages. They also probably want to see how he fares after his hamstring surgery.

    There’s also Sarr who I completely forgot about. And Acheampong.
