As I was saying...


His agent really is a tool that can't stop yapping. It's fine if he ends up at Real or Barca. We shouldn't worry about losing players as long as we get a good fee for them and have replacements lined up. But having someone constantly in his ear like this will just cause unnecessary friction while he is here.
His agent does an interview, answers a few questions and they take out the bits that make a headline without giving any context. You’re getting your knickers in a twist over nothing.

Might even get us a few shirt sales in romania.
 
The summary I listened to (delivered by Mina Rzouki) was that he can be dominant in the air at both ends of the field, is NOT a ball-playing CB, so won't be carrying the ball out of defence and starting attacks that way, but does deliver a mean long ball. Plus the other stuff we've heard (quick for his size, good tackler, difficult to go past, etc.)

On his passing i read that he tries a lot of long balls to initiate counters, which brings his passing stats down as they are inherently more risky, and his passing otherwise is decent
 
Don't see a big deal regarding the agents comments, clearly all about context - its not like he has been calling press conferences every hour as social media could have you believe with the drip fed comments.

And as for Real Madrid, well judging by our previous he will be one of the worlds top CBs was he ever to go there and Levy being Levy will ensure we receive a fee reflective of that and our recruitment team is now good enough to identify the next big thing - Win, win.....
 
Also, if you didn't see Mina Rzouki's take on this lad on Sky Sports yesterday, it's been pretty much turned into this BBC article. She came across very well when speaking about him - seemed more than just a bluffer's take who had an hour to watch Youtube highlights before having to vomit some content online.


She’s always very good on 5 Live.
 
It's also worth noting perhaps that he's from a smaller nation footballing wise. There will be that wish for attention and discussion about how far a very promising young player can be. Even more than in the "bigger" footballing nations because it's more rare to have players at or near that level. His agent is probably a bit of a prick for playing into that, particularly at this time. But it's also a way to create attention and positivity about his player and how good he can become which is understandable.

Again. Not an actual problem.
And besides the truth is his progression will be dictated by how he does on the pitch....and at the moment that is via us...so if he ends up fulfilling his dreams we'll be benefitting... performance wise and £ wise
 
Ah well, in the absence of any official announcement, back to the songs. Sticking with Boney M:

Radu Drăguşin, tra la la la la
He's Radu Drăguşin, tra la la la la la
Radu Drăguşin, tra la la la la
He looks like he'll kill the fukkin scum
Scum! Scum!
