[Albion] Joao Pedro Brazilian Maestro

[dazzer6666]

Very interesting scouting report that. Sounds similar to Joelinton to me who was ineffective up top but has now become an absolute beast in midfield.
Very different player in that his physical attributes seems to be outstanding. The only young player we have who hasn't had to actively work on that Is Ferg. All the others have outstanding technical attributes but are clearly being worked very hard on the physical side of their game.
So makes total sense. I assumed he was a flairniac and thought it a bit unnecessary to be signing another player like Sarmiento, Enciso etc.
Really wouldn't be surprised if we see him as someone to develop in the 6/8 role as much as 7/10/11.

Ferguson has been with us for 4 years…..I suspect the S&C team have very much been ‘actively working‘ on his physical attributes with him throughout that period.

That's a very weak team

That's a very weak team

Also Caceido isn’t going anywhere.

 

[Oh_aye]

Bit naughty of us doing this before the season ends. If the roles were reversed we’d be fuming

Watford could have told us to piss off. They didn't so they are obviously happy with getting it done now. If he's going to go anyway it makes sense to get it done earlier and reinvest.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Will they do it before window opens?

Would seem a bit weird to announce now with Brighton shirt, at least until Watford play last game of season.

Agreed, we may not be able to officially announce it until the window opens for all l know. For that reason l am going to wait until then before l celebrate anything.

 

[Oh_aye]

Also Caceido isn’t going anywhere.

Also he was 70 mil in January. He's since signed a new deal and Macallister is a world cup winner and one of the best midfielders in Europe. Those numbers need to go up up up. And any amount would clearly be reinvested in replacements.

Veltman won’t be going anywhere

& Lovely fella notwithstanding & still pretty quick. Tariq is not a Prem level defender

Met a few Watford supporting pals last night. They couldnt speak highly enough of this guy. Certain he would one day play for a top team. The most encouraging thing they said was that he was captain material, a real team player & hard worker.

I haven't spoken to my Watford supporting neighbours yet. Due to past experience, I think they're avoiding me. I've a suspicion they are gutted.

I really believe this too. The new contract DOES mean something in the near future. Been saying it a while - there will still be loads of rumours flying around - mainly clickbait nonsense, unfortunately entertained by some of our fans.

 

[Insel affe]

This has all gone a bit quite, has Dan Ashworth taken an interest

Fabrizio Romano says its done deal and now all signed?

As window isn't open for 2 more months, it may be a bit of a wait to know for sure?

 

[Ali_rrr]

I imagine it will be announced after Watford's last game/our last game of the season.

Yep very much this

So potentially he could be paraded before the Everton match.

Be a bit tight JRB. All championship final games at 3pm Monday. (Warford home to Stoke)

But we kick off at 5:30pm so he'd have about 20 mins to get here unless he's dropped from their matchday squad?

 

[Taybha]

For the love of god please don't parade him,I still remember the Locadia parade,he came out tripped up on the camera cable and didn't wave at me,still fuming.

There's no way they'll risk playing him and risk an ACL injury or similar.

He won't play if he's signed.

I think he is PL quality when fit. The problem is clearly "when fit"
