I just thought he'd played a handful of senior games so far and was regarded as a prospect. That would change things I suppose. my bad, the Brewster example is better Link to post Share on other sites

Both are extreme versions of reality. Seems pointless to me. If you think a signing is good then say it. If you think a signing is bad then say it. I'm not sure I see any benefit to thinking every signing is good or bad? 🤷♂️ 2 Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,043 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Did we not convince Muniz enough as in the papers it's about Marco silva telephone conversation where the player was sold. We must not of given a good enough pitch. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Maz 2,899 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 interestingly, one thing we've all kind of overlooked in regards to Muniz - is Work Permit. It was easy enough to work out Payero, but how does Muniz get the points? Link to post Share on other sites

If we looked at the leading scorers in the Championship over the last say 5 years, how many of them would have cost more than we are offering here I wonder? I haven't looked like, I was just trying to think of different names. Obviously I know that's different because with a relatively inexperienced player then you're paying a premium for the potential.

HolgateBoy 96 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) Is Cole Palmer the Man City player we had at rockliffe recently? Cant remember who mentioned this story @Raf smog 🤷♂️ Edited July 29, 2021 by HolgateBoy Link to post Share on other sites

If we've been looking at multiple South American players then we'll have gone through all of this. Mind you, someone posted on here the other day that one of the hold ups over Payero was that Banfield wanted the deal to go through even if we didn't get a work permit for him. So maybe you're right 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites

He qualifies really easily. Plus they are in a Band 1 Continental competition. Group stage last year, currently quarter finalists this season. He's been in a matchday squad both years. He could have gotten enough points (15) for a work permit without playing a single minute, purely based on Flamengo's standing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
