He fits the profile we need and he’s affordable. Could we really do better than Gabriel? I don’t think so..
Snap him up!

True. I think the Twitter thread is even a bit harsh. For example, for the second goal I think he closes down quite quickly, much more than Luiz or Holding would for example, but he's just too late. It's a very dynamic attack, hard to defend. For the third goal his man, the Ajax defender Alvarez who's about 190 cm tall, misses the header as well. It dips quickly and more or less the smallest guy on the pitch scores with his head.Every CB has had really bad games.
If you only ever watched VVD play one game- and it happened to be the game against Arsenal a few weeks back- you would think he is horrible.
Cant take away much from this
True, those two games he wasn't very good. Don't know him very well outside of those two games. In the statistical comparison @Sebastes did on the earlier pages he comes out quite well.Yeah like I said a few pages back it was the same in the away game vs ajax, idk if he’s always like this but he seems to do nothing until ball + attacker are coming to him. I just hope these games were outliers.
Its just matter of agreeing fee with Lille shouldn't be problem. Everything else is doneSo, now we're very likely to sign him, videos are being posted highlighting his short-comings. Where were these beforehand?
Not a team that finished 8th, and are having to lay people off. He'd be a good bit of business, particularly in these difficult times.He fits the profile we need and he’s affordable. Could we really do better than Gabriel? I don’t think so..

It's good that they're coming out now, better late than never. We can use them to reduce his price.So, now we're very likely to sign him, videos are being posted highlighting his short-comings. Where were these beforehand?
If you click into the link tho and follow the thread theres more videos where he's quite poor for all three goals.

The club will have been monitoring for some time now. Not using YouTube highlights during their scouting and negotiation process.It's good that they're coming out now, better late than never. We can use them to reduce his price.
Hopefully bullshit & we are in for Renato.
Why not wait till we see the French kid & other CBs in pre season games / training? Who knows maybe he clicks with a Luiz... we already have the depth.
Stop blowing money on CBs!
Watts say not done yet, so yeah, its done.
Stop blowing money on CBs!
We have seven senior CBs on the books with three signed last twelve months... One that we have not even seen train / play with our other CBs & another that has not played more than 3 games.
