Guys, this forum is crazy. Alex Sandro is not even close of being worth 60m or 70m. He is no Cafu, Roberto Carlos or Marcelo.

Thats crazy and madness. Its so crazy, that I can't stand the fact some people really believe we offered 70m for him and Juve really refused to sell. Really? I mean, they just sold Bonucci to rivals Milan for 35...and won't let Alex Sandro for 70???

Guys, you just lost your minds if you believe in those reports.  Of course Telegraph, Guardian, Mail and all those papers around they must keep the rumors alive, since in the "transfer market", creating transfers rumors is the only way to make fans interested in reading football news when there is no football left to play.

None of that matters. The market dictates the price and due to inflation Sandro is worth that much; regardless of his talent or the relative price of Cafu and Roberto Carlos. The price exists within a vacuum, it doesn't matter if he performs at a certain level, that is price that the economy of European football has created. What separates the skill level of a 30m player and a 20m player? Nothing, because cost isn't indicative of talent or ability. There are too many factors to consider to simply compare Bonucci's transfer to a hypothetical Sandro transfer (or any other for that matter).

Though, you are right about the assertion concerning the tabloids. This is naught but for views.

De Sciglio is apparently signing for Juventus tomorrow.

Doesn't matter. I remember people got excited that we will get Sandro when Juve bought a striker

45 and not 60-70?!
Lets do it.

Not happening. 

 

He isn't pushing for a move and they already lost Bonucci to Milan.

For those who still believe there's a chance he'll be wearing blue next year, De scilgio is undergoing medicals at Juve

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

No chance. Also looks like we have pulled out the deal.

This one is definitely over. But does not matter. We have enough cover on the LWB. Just like Moses, Kenedy and Baba are average as wingers or fullbacks but perfect for the LWB position.

De Scilgio is a RB who is replacing Alves.

You are only saying they are "perfect" for WB because they are good attackers, but bad defenders. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest they'd be perfect as wing-backs.

I find it very strange that since rumors emerged about Alex Sandro, not a lot of people mention this crazy 60m fee that is thrown around. Too much!

They are not bad defenders. They are okish defenders and at least average attackers just as Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso. But just as these two they are good athletes, tireless runners with enough of a physical presence to outmuscle most wingers in a sprint duel. However whilst a classical FB must win a 1 vs 1 or the winger can race through on goal or to the byline for great crossing position, the wing back still has the cover of the extra CB who will step out. So the Fullback only has to track the winger's run, foul him early or force him out to the sideline, no need for extraordinary tackling or marking skills. That is the beauty of the system. It is all about the movement, the awareness, the workrate in these positions. With a bit of tactical coaching both Kenedy and Baba who do not seem to be attitude issues IMO but surely will be avid learners, they can master that role.

Chelsea’s pursuit of Real’s right-back Danilo is likely to be thwarted by Manchester City and talks continue with Juve over the Brazil wing-back Alex Sandro regarding a potential £60m transfer. Juve are resistant to the move and are willing to offer the player a new contract, though their interest in Nemanja Matic, who will be permitted to leave Chelsea and has not been included in Conte’s touring party, could yet see agreement reached.

Please. Sandro would be a top top signing. Morata would feed well off his crosses, he'd link up incredibly well with Eden, Cesc/Baka. Would really up the level of the first XI. 

[Pizy 17,860]

Would take our summer business thus far from solid to fantastic. Just can't see them selling their two best defenders and 3 of their back 5 in the same window.

This where all the money we've staked from player sales and bargain purchases should come in. Swap deals aren't common but paying 60m for Sandro and selling them Matic for 25m would be acceptable to me
