Look at this Lookman :santi2:
Their seriously not.
Everton, Arsenal and Chelsea, three of the bottom four when it comes to the number of accurate rumours written about them, are three of the five most-featured clubs.
Arsenal and Everton make sense, we get linked to everybody but deep down are clubs are stingey as fuck so none of it ever materializes.
There was a time when we got linked to the same players QPR and Newcastle did, just because they were French. Weâre just easy targets to create some interest for players no one would care about otherwise.
Payet in makes a lot of sense. Wonât happen.
I still wish we had gotten Cabaye back then. Handsome devel.
Payet is 29 and will probably be very expensive. A signing like that can make sense, if you have complete faith in the manager, and if you think that itâs the final piece required to win a title. Itâs just a short-term solution and not something Iâd want to see with Wenger as manager. Lots of money spent on a player, still no title and then youâre going to need to replace him anyway whenever the next manager comes in. No thanks.
Besides, I donât think thereâs a lack of quality out there. Shouldnât be too difficult to upgrade on Iwobi, even if I think heâs probably being underrated at the moment. Walcottâs doing fine and itâs hardly a disaster to have him as a starter.
Central midfield is a bigger problem.
Hmm, probably not the right thread this one. But the wide options are being discussed in so many threads at the moment and I honestly no longer even know what the appropriate thread is. Donât we have a thread about the quality of the squad/what we need to upgrade?
Messi is 29. Not really sure age alone is a reasonable indicator of how useful a player could be.
Cornering midfield Iâd like to see us take a punt on Dahoud contract up in 2018 and Gladbach arenât ones to stand in the way.
He definitely wonât be there come summer and heâs Santi-esque to a tee.
Would be excellent value.
Leicester are ready to sign Ndidi and Acerbi (very good defender).
Atlanta? Do me a favour.
Atalanta
Atalanta? Do me a favour.
Having a very good season. Gagliardini, Kessie and Caldara will all play for big clubs soon. Caldara is already going to Juventus in a year or two. Gargliardini is a very good young player. Kessie is wanted by some of Europeâs top clubs.
Whatâs wrong with Atalanta? If a player is doing the business and/or has massive potential then does it matter where they come from? Every player has to start somewhere.
I can almost guarantee his signing is more of an exercise in marketing than anything else.
Edit: plus id rather we stear clear from anyone African. Their cup is so needlessly disruptive.
Marketing lol?
You donât watch any Italian football do you?
Not really no. Hence why usually i defer to you tbh.
