That has to be a wind up. Average English players getting paid the earth.

For sure. Shame that logic wasn't used for players recently moved on or sold.

If he was at any other big club, he wouldn't be anywhere near the starting eleven. Top players NEED an end product.

That's his career over.

I get what Zidane is saying, but we have to be realistic. He is the best player in the EPL, but isn't on the same level as CR7 and Messi. I doubt him or anyone else will be in the coming years.

We lost to this PSG side. Sad times!

It all depends on what Mourinho and the board want. I have said it before that we need to add to our starting XI instead of our bench. I would rather see Bamford given the chance instead of buying either player mentioned.

I just personally think the price tag is Palermo doing what they do best. Commanding massive fees for potential stars. I think Icardi would be a better bet for a lower fee.

Not worth the price tag IMO. Decent player, but I can see him follow Pastore. Big price tag and hype, but hasn't lived up to either.

Good to see him get voted the best Champ player. I hope he gets a chance here. He has shown he has something and would be a good addition to our squad.

I'm talking about going to the Europa League. I wouldn't be confident of them getting past the qualifier if they got a tricky draw.

City will probably follow them.

He knows how to set up a team to get the job done. It mightn't be pretty sometimes, but the result is what truly matters.

Played better than he has for several weeks. Was solid defensively.

Not great, but we got the job done. One down, two to go.

We have been second best for most of the first half, but we're winning. Let's take control in the second half.

Remy's injury was worst than we thought. Zouma in midfield could work or be a disaster.

We should be getting the win at home. Two more wins to go after that.

Quaresma was on loan. A loan signing and a player we own are different things. P.S. Our squad back then was better.

I agree. I have no right to "moan" about a player we still BLOODY OWN!

Talk about bias. Quaresma isn't even in the same league as the bigger Portuguese players, let alone WC ones. Secondly, he was on loan. There's a reason why he didn't sign him. Lastly, why is Quaresma a subject of discussion in Salah's thread? Post your non starter of a debate in a dedicated thread.

Quaresma had three chances and fail. Salah wasn't even given a chance. He didn't end up at Al Ahli by chance. No one wanted a has been (using the term loosely).If you watched Salah on Thursday, he was a cut above the rest. Fiorentina is just a stepping stone. Remember that.

He scored twice. Might have been a poor defensive performance from Bayern, but he still had to make the most of the chances.

He failed at Barca, Inter AND Chelsea. One good performance against Bayern and he's WC. The Portuguese league is his level.

Likewise. There's been numerous rumours each window, but nothing concrete. I'm sure he'll get a move soon, but could follow Garay and Witsel to Russia.
