[Albion] Bernardo - Brazilian defender SIGNS from RB Leipzig

[Marshy]

So from what I can gather he can play right back, left back, centreback, defensive midfield, quarterback, wide receiver, short stop, 2nd baseman, scrum half, and can open the batting for Yorkshire.

Sounds decent.

Bargain

Bargain

Until after his first ten minutes, after which he’ll be a waste of money, gash, lightweight, not good enough, too short etc.

I cannot see that he has any national caps thought they needed to be an international to obtain a work visa?

Most Brazilians have dual nationality passports.

Can I just point out how disappointed I am that several hours after the SINGING the thread title is still simply his name and a seemingly incorrect position on the pitch. Surely someone should have updated it to "Bernardo Fernandes de Silva Junior, Utility Defender, SIGNS Official."

Sometimes it's a good job I can't take my custom elsewhere

 

[Marshy]

Hes just going to be mustard you can tell.

 

[Weststander]

Great news.

We definitely needed an upgrade at full back. He looks quality, with pace to burn.

Maybe Norwood will go, also reducing the Button net spend ?

Norwood out
Skalak out
Hemed out
probably Baldock out..

all of which will command transfer fees..

Bernardo will be his name in a similar way to Bruno (whose name is a lot longer in reality).
Last year the club charged £12 for the name regardless of the number of letters.

The £12 was a time limited offer. They may do it again, or they may not.

May b new contract for Ryan too if hes attracting interetest from else where ?.

That seems a few pounds beyond us, with the signing on fees for Andone and Balogun, plus Groß's new contract and perhaps a new one for Dunk.

I suspect our bid for Carson was about reducing the £4 million for Button, and I'm not sure we can afford both of the expensive ones above at those prices.

Any incoming fees of course help.

Not many goals or assists. Have we bought a dud?

Oh well, back to Dunk or Bong.

A smattering of football journos/commentators saying he struggled last year in the Bundesliga.

That's all we need, is another poet!!

Faith in NSC restored, after good comments at last a stupid one

Head in the sand - what you know enough already to form an opinion!?

One of the comments on the top tweet

I cant talk sure.. Houghton might need to calm down with the signings.. Signed too many last year and just about got away with it






WTF.

Selective text from the second tweet, despite his inability to impress for RB Leipzig, he has amazing potential.
