Romano Twitter-Twat has established that Mac Allister is going to Liverpool and this chap is coming to us. We will see how accurate he is but bare in mind that he said 100% that this chap was going to Newcastle last year.
By all accounts it was a done deal until Newcastle saw another player they wanted had become available.

I can see that working out for him, but I think a move to Germany or Turkey would also be a high probability, he won't be here next season.


If he is, no disrespect to him, but we will not be moving forward.

Not quite right is it, it is not a like for like replacement is it.

MacAllister's father says he wants to move, and is his agent.

This is the only tweet and there is nothing established about it. Your use of an insulting name does you no favours in posting your opinion.

I haven't stated an opinion, just what Romano has posted on twitter as per the tweet you have posted. Whether my insult stands or not is entirely dependant upon how right he is about the tweets he posts as "100% guaranteed".

100% guaranteed he will leave us this summer. He then mentions two clubs who might be involved, which is different from your implication.
I've no doubt the club has told MacAllister he can go, at the right price, now he is a World Champion.

Him going to Liverpool has been in the BBC news transfer gossip at least twice this week, one of the sources quoted was Mr Romano. Basically, I don't believe anything this guy says considering that some of his 100% guaranteed to happen things haven't happened, hence my insult.
The only thing that matters is whose shirt Ali Mac and Pedro will be wearing at the start of next season. My profound hope is that they are both wearing blue and white stripy ones with a seagull badge on them.

Ali Mac will go with all of our blessings. He's been great for us and even signed a new contract before going to the World Cup that means whoever wants him will pay through the nose for his services. I hope that continental giants are not priced out, but suspect that they will be. We'll soon get to the stage where each of the seven richest English clubs will be picking one or more of our players to play against us.

We’ve not replaced Trossard
Trossard started 18 of our first 18 PL games this season normally playing on the left side of a front three or four and a couple of times as a false 9.
Mitoma , although they played together a couple of times, has started as a left sided attacker/winger in every game - since Southampton (A) since he left .
Mitoma has clearly replaced Trossard in the team.
Albion tend to look a few windows ahead so Trossard's replacement could well be Adingra given he's he had 20+ goals and assists for RUSG this season and er, plays on the left side of a attack either as a winger or as a false 9.
But the idea that - given we already have Sarmiento, Buonanotte, Enciso, and now Pedro as either attacking No 10s or wingers or false 9s fighting for a place - we still need to replace Trossard ? Do we ?

PS: I'm assuming that Pedro is "replacing" Alexis to some extent but its not as simple as that given the roles Alexis plays in the team as both a No.10 and in the pivot with Caicedo and that he can also play as a striker, second striker and a no.10.

From my Watford neighbour on Pedro....
I quote:

"He is very good! A great signing indeed! Your very lucky a special talent who I’m sure will flourish with you. Also a smart move by him to choose you guys and not go to a bigger club that he’s been linked with."
