It's a start but not getting excited until i see a couple of top quality players come in

He needs to be patient and if he can fulfil his potential we believe he can play at the top level

Yep one for the future it seems, you couldnt expect someone to just walk into our first team ahead of our strikers though

giovanni dos santos mark 2!!

Kind of hard to comment really since no body seems to know anything about the lad

But his name sounds quite interesting

Worrying thing is, I'm sure I read somewhere that Barca released him because he was too small

Oh well, no transfer fee, presumably small wages, so what can go wrong?

Can he be any worse than crouch RRP?

he even trained with the first team

At the end of last season, jes I would've looked good among our first team at the end of last season

Can he be any worse than crouch RRP?

The laws of physics wouldn't allow that Don

Does anyone know if we are going to send this lad out on loan or will he play a part next season?

Barcelona reject?

Why do I feel so underwhelmed.

Next ...

He's only 18, in his first season of the Prem, so I'd have thought he'll go on loan, but anythings possible with Harry I suppose...

My thoughts exactly

Cant even find any recent YouTube clips of him in action

I think everyone needs to calm down with the whole Dos santos comparison. He could be awful or he could be one of the gems of the season ( E.G Hernandez) so let's wait and see before Judging

Just occured to me, is this that kid that got all the hype after doing tricks with ronaldinho?

Don - I still very much rate Dos Santos, but Harry does like him and i will take his word for it

RRP... sadly I am not joking.... we may bring in a striker... but it will be last minute and we will already have played the first three games of the season.

haha imagine if crouch came back a beast. the white drogba

Defoe's the offside master
Crouch the push-in-the-back wizard
and Keane the car-parker waving his arms all over the place

No doubt Pav will be the one we sell

sounds like someone for khumalo to play with

Robbie Keane would be a very good windmill.

yeah sell Pav and keep the rest... that would be disaster really. Pav is the only one who can score out of nothing on any kind of marginally regular basis

Is it too optimistic to hope for Pav, VDV, the Internacional chap (Leandro?) and Lavezzi?

Leandro signed a new long term deal today I thought???? so we wont be getting him.. if thats true

Well even if we do get Leandro it wont be until January which is pretty pointless

Llorente would be the most realistic target, and to be honest i would LOVE IT if he came to us

i heard today that Llorente said he wont be leaving...... i seem to be the bearer of bad news.
