[NOT HAPPENING] Rafael Borre

Fits in nicely with Caffecart and Kenco Femenia (sorry)

 

He would also be going to Lazio as a back up given they already have Immobile who is up there as the best striker in the division.

Here he is up against JP, Fletch, Success, Penaranda, Gray, Deeney, Cucho etc. I think he is pretty much guaranteed to start for every game he is fit.

 

We’ve all been here before.

 

I helps that our transfer policy the last 5 years has been to target the few strikers out there who are actually worse than Deeney.

 

He will be pouring over the details of our offer. It would be a grande signing if we pull it off, but I will venti my frustration if we end up with Fletcher as our only striker signing.

 

Look, until Duxbury has DM’d LouOrns this isn’t happening.

 

Even though immobile wasn't as productive as the season before he still struck 20 goals, contract until 2025 at Lazio, you also have Correa and Muriqi. I could see the latter being moved but then again Sarri might fancy him. Borre could be third possibly forth choice there. Can't see him having problems like that here.

 

Carlos Sanchez could put in a good word. It looks like he had his most enjoyable time in England over the last 6 months.

Can't really ask Cucho... "You've been there for the last five years, what's Watford like?". "I have absolutely no idea".

 

I guess he has at least been to the stadium / training ground.

I'm sure Zuniga would also have good words to say about us after he has spent the last 2-3 years in a legal battle against us.

 

That's what every south american footballer dreams of when they come to Europe. A protracted legal battle.

 

Especially when it's a nailed on win for them.

 

Look, if Zuniga couldn’t get Marseille to sign him even after he’d signed a deal with us, that’s his own fault.

 

Looks like a has bean to me.

 

I think he'd be a great option alongside King Kenco.

 

There are quite a number of clubs (including São Paulo, Palmeiras, Gremio, Toronto, Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Brighton and Watford) which have been linked with Rafael Santos Borré during the past few months. I have the impression that South American journalists are trying to sound as if they are in the know, but that they are simply speculating.

I suspect that he has already agreed a contract with a club and, whichever club that may be, it will be announced on 1st July after his contract with River Plate has finished. Several Argentinian sources have supported the rumour reported in this link just over one week ago.

A bore and a loser. What could go wrong?

 

Quite possibly a bore, but I am not too sure about him being a loser. He played in a team which won the Copa Libertadores, but plenty can go wrong if Watford are involved.

 

Where's @The Whoosh Magnet when you need them?

 

We’re signing the grown up equivalent of the 7 dwarfs, we just need Drunk, Violent, Creepy, Idiot and Sex Pest to complete the set.

Ah, you were making a pun about Imre Louza (on another thread) as well as Rafael Santos Borré (on this thread). I thought that you were only discussing Borré, which is why I wrote "Quite possibly a bore".

Ok so just "Violent" still needed.

 

Maybe you’d be best staying clear of any lateral flow tests you may be offered.

 

This would have been fun with VAR!!

 

It would make a mochary of our transfer policy

 

I hear he’s quite robusta in the tackle

 

Coffee.

 

Looks a decent signing , but would prefer we
go in for Kylian M’Frappe

 

I think you'll find Deeney plays for us.

 

Good call, I've heard he wants to move to England to escape the French press.

 

My comment was intended to be ironic (which is the reason that I started with "Ah"). I think that the frog was already dead before it was dissected.

 

Maybe this was a clause in Deeney's contract? Very clever, if true. An unhappy captain equals an unhappy dressing room.
