Good comeback by Bahia to draw 2-2 even missing a penalty in the 85th minute which could have won them the game.

Reading the report, it appears they have two, yes 2, Alan's!! Just uncalled for, and wholly unnecessary. Nearest we have is a false Lallana. If only he could lose a couple of L's and an A, we would be set.

I'm in.

(unless we can sort Lallana out by deed poll, in which case all bets are off)

Not sure Potter has ever played with a “False Lallana”, but with an Alan up in front, it’s probably worth trying?

Reminder of the sort of skillz this boy has.

He thrives in a front 3, will he be able to handle English football though?

Would love to see a forward with skills like that in the stripes.

What is the quality of football over there though? He would lose the ball in the PL in quite a few of those clips, not keeping it close enough to him.

They also look like they have more than a few Scottish goalkeepers :wink:

Does GP ever pick wingers?

No, he seemed to push the wingers out of the squad and then play central midfielders in a wide area during his first season often a 4-2-2-2 kind of set up with Mooy/Gross creating width however the emergence of Ben White has prompted a switch to a 5-2-3 or 3-4-3 with Trossard and Wellbeck running into the channels in attacking moves. Having some wingers may allow for a better attacking set up and mitigate against the need for a £40m striker

Reports that we've upped offer to $12.5m for Argie Alan.

And I’d guess that these are pretty genuine judging from what leaked out from the Mac Allister & Caicedo transfers. The club must be really frustrated that South American’s can’t help but spill the beans!

Argie Alan could be a great replacement for Tross if he has a good euros and then consistent season seeing his value rocket towards £50m and us sell.
