To all saying wait and watch. Do we need to wait further or can we say it is underwhelming? Santos for 50m, yet we weren't willing to pay 85 for a much better player. Ridiculous now. Probably bid another 50m for Tchouameni's chef or driver.

UA, have you ever watched Santos? My guess is no.

I watched a handful of Chelsea games, and Santos perhaps came in a couple of those games towards the end, and hardly made a difference. The players that did stand out were Caicedo and Enzo. He isn't good enough to replace either of them, and that tells me all I need to know.

I think you might have been watching something other than football if Santos came.

UA, comparing anyone to the most influential player in the league (Caicedo) and a WC winner and player of the tournament, Enzo, is ridiculously unfair. I'm delighted with getting Andrey Santos. He's a 6, while Mateus Fernandes is more of an 8, but I don't see a huge difference in their potential.
Santos was ahead of Lavia and others at Chelsea. If we get Tchoumeni, or someone of that ilk, I think we'll have smashed it this summer. Honestly, some of the posts here are a mixture of entitled and delusional.

There's more chance of me getting a call from United to play in midfield than Tchoumeniso being signed.

Don't get the Fernandes love in. And for £85m. ????
Spurs have had their pants taken down.
