[Albion] Jhon Solis (Colombian midfielder)

Their spend is low like ours but lacking the big profits. Presumably they use similar data methods to the ones Bloom has so i guess the comparison isn't entirely unjustified.

We never seem to be bidding on the same player, this is the first time I can remember this happening. (If it's true!)

Different style of play? Would mean (I guess) looking for different metrics in the data.

And their data sets only seem to cover Denmark and the UK. News that they are looking at South America is worrying, that’s our turf!

Brentford’s team is made up of some very different profiles to ours.

But successful

Brentford have now moved their interest to Jhon’s brother John. Phew!

 

[b.w.2.]

Surely, we are stronger in the market than Brentford?

He'll be able to walk to Chelsea when the time comes.

They also tried to sign Mitoma.

brentford have dropped out…buuuuttt now city group have made an offer

 

[b.w.2.]

Not great that City Group are in, but better chance of Prem 1st team at the Albion.

If you're looking through blue and white tinted specs maybe. I would think we are comparable.

Boo. Sounds like that's a done deal.

 

[JetsetJimbo]

I suspect the prospect of a future move to City was a factor there. I'm not sure I'll ever understand why Bloom had to give up his stake in USG while the likes of Qatar and Saudi Arabia are allowed to have big stakes in (or full ownership of) multiple clubs and use them in this way.

Definite push by City/City Group this summer to sign more worldwide younger talent.

Wanna bet?

Boo. Sounds like that's a done deal.

Very off putting for the player to see us sign Baleba. Same age and profile.

Jhon was probably always a second/third/fourth choice.

And yet we can't loan people to USG anymore...
