Re: Summer 2025 BFC Transfer Window - Links and discussion on the Linked player only.

Just watched Luis play the last 20 minutes. Didn't look like he got injured, so hopefully all good. He seemed bigger than when I'd seen him on YouTube highlights. Didn't stop running but also didn't have much of the ball as Benfica were defending a lead with 10 men. Off to get your flight you go!

I'd still keep Worrell over Ekdal if it came to that (I don't expect either to leave). We need leaders like Worrell to get us through this season. Sometimes personally and leadership makes up for ability.

Re: Hannibal

If we sign Luis, I think Hannibal will be the one for the chop from our starting 11. I love how he gets opponents backs up and that will come in useful over the season, but I expect we'll play Ugochuckwu further forward with Cullen and Luiz sitting.

I'm sure there were young and better options out there but we haven't got a bottomless pit. We still had Ugochukwu, Broja and all the rest to pay for. This is a smart, cheap signing which has allowed us to spend in other areas.
