We'd have a problem if he performs exceptionally well in the next few months and then becomes a target for other clubs across Europe. We'd have then felt as if we had missed out. Maybe I am being greedy, but I think this guy is the icing on the cake. I feel that exact same about this one. It was one of the deals I was hoping would get down all suer. Looks unlikely now which is a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 There will be no more signings today. However, if the Benrahma position shifts dramatically I doubt we would say "yeah, but Dean has already said no more signings so we'd better not sign him in case we look stupid".

Jareth Posted August 8, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2019 Deano knows what he's doing, he'll have finely judged Benrahma's emotional psyche and knows that by walking out on the deal at this exact point that Benrahma will slap in a transfer request or assault the Brentford owner in order to get his move for half the price.

Teale's 'tache Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Will be interesting to see if this is a bit of gamesmanship, and if so how Brentford play it, do they keep a potentially unhappy player who's value may reduce or drop the price to get the deal done?

Zatman Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Not really that bothered, just like Maupay I feel if we wanted him we would have paid asking price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 He's only actually had one good season in his career. No guarantee he'd even get in the side over El Ghazi or Trezeguet, even Jota with the way he's been playing in pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Benrahama isn't what we needed the most. He will get another injury and people will forget him. We got decent wingers already. What we need is a striker to cover right wing. And I think it's unfortunate we didn't land that. Would have gone from a very very good window to an exceptional one.
