Ndombele having a medical

He’s a really good player but more random comparisons there, he does not have Toure’s goalscoring ability or Kante’s ball winning ability which define them. He is similar to Dembele yes, and also someone like Kovacic

Think youre right, although his ball winning ability does look really good then again dembele did this as well as kante

someone on the spurs transfer thread compared him to toure, which i cannot see at all, like you said the goal scoring and pure match winning ability toure had

I think Ndombele is probably going to like the night club in London

Lyon is like a village in comparison

I reckon this will be announced by 6pm.

i wish people stop comparing any black midfielder to kante (when it doesnt actually make sense to)

it's casual racism mate. He's black, plays in midfield so obvs he's the new Kante or Vieira. People like to make out that they know all about a player when in fact 95% had never heard of him prior to 2 months ago.

I mean Tierney is meant to be the business and similar to Robertson at Liverpool but I don't know feck all about him and don't pretend that I do. all I can hope is that the club know what they are doing when it comes to spotting and valuing a player.

It's just a reference point don't make a mountain out of a molehill

It's like saying my dad is like the green giant from the sweetcorn ad. I mean he is tall?

Not being racist to green people?

Thought this was a decent video explaining what kind of player/how suited he would be or not to us.

Hope so

I think the medical is probably all clear and the player is being wined and dines and then softened up a bit by Levy before they discuss personal terms

The Levy way of signing a contract

Think the best comparison I have seen is Essien. He did remind me of Essien the couple of times I watched Lyon.
