That's fake, mate.

If they nick that type of money for him, they have made the transfer of the summer, even if they fail to attract any top talent.

Right now. The idea is to keep them, but as far as I know, Umtiti is really keen on the move and reuniting with Zouma.

All I can wish to him is to stay healthy and for his family to stay healthy too. Closed page for me. Worst of luck in terms of Arsenal. Lots of conceeded goals, zero trophies, no prosperity. Love you, Petr.

London isn't a bad destination. lol In all seriousness, the picture is nothing. What baffles me is:1. Simeone said only Koke and Godin are irreplaceable and are not for sale. Direct pun at Griezmann and Mandzukis 2. Vietto - quite similar, from what I hear in terms of play. SS and AMC/Enganche. 3. Martinez - they've sold Mandzukic, but it's not like they will get 50 million to pay both Vietto and Martinez. They don't have THAT much money, they've said it themselves. 4. Other strikers - Torres and Correa are still there and Miranda is leaving. Correa, Jackson, Vietto will fill their FGN quota. 5. Contract extension - Griezmann is yet to sign a new deal, which was what Atleti were trying to do, before reports of a deal being accepted. All these are far too many coincidences. I doubt Griezmann, Correa and Vietto will share minutes. If Arda leaves he can move to LW, but as far as I know, that won't happen. Something is going on. It's too quiet. haha

So they are signing 2 strikers, have Correa and Torres and Griezmann tweeted a pic with a title: Guess the destination. Something is fishy.

20+2 bonuses. Di Marzio said it. Apparently, Miranda extended his contract for 2 years, only to shorten Inter's spending. He's going on loan for the first 2 years, so they can pay 3 mil. per year, and 6 after. Idea is to have money to get Imbula and Salah/Jovetic.

20 milion pounds is a steal for him. Whichever way you take it.

So if Atleti get Vietto and Martinez, they've got 5 players for their two striker roles. Hey, Grizi, come here, mate.

As I have watched so very little, can you give me a detailed view on his game, strengths, weaknesses, etc.?

If we pull off selling our second GK(don't hate me for this, read through the context) and adding 20 million pounds for probably the player with highest technical and physical potential (in terms of AM's that are English), than I'd personally run naked. Alex is a beast, he's head troubles with injuries, but is still 20 and is better than Sterling in terms of technicality and intelligence. His finishing is pretty smooth too. Signing of the summer for me if we bag him for the reported price. With all that put into place, DOUBT it will happen, as Wenger knows his qualities. One thing has to be said, though, he hasn't been getting the fair amount of game time he has to, because of Arsene's typical persistence and stubbornes. Whether it's Ozil or Ramsey on the wings, or the fact he doesn't want to drop Cazorla, Alex could be unhappy. Throw Walcott into that pit and you've got two perfectly good HG players eligible for a good deal. For me, everyone would prefer The Ox to Walcott, due to age, potential and so - on, but I'd take either one. That being said, as quoted above, if we pull this off, it is the steal of the market.

Same as Sterling his versatility plays a big part in what we need. He can change positions with Hazard and Willian, wait for the ball , play with it and is an intelligent goalscorer from a secondary position. If Hazard is missing or needs rest he can come in, if Oscar is in bad form too. There are just so many possibilities.

Express are saying we are back in for him. PLEASE.

I'd love a scenario where Liverpool play hardball for him all summer, no one pays 50 mil. and they end up selling for 25 (maximum) or letting him go on a free 6-12 months later.

I don't expect us to bid anything bigger than 35 mil. Bet my house he'd do great at City.

Your last sentence proves you wre never a fan of him to begin with. Just the typical mainstream bandwagon. Welcome, El Tigre! We are behind you 100%.

He's going there on loan.

Elaborate on why Pogba isn't a World class CM already and why he isn't worth buying?

The reason why I think he is a perfect fit, is because, he can play anywhere, with the equal amount of quality. If we need Hazard to rest, we have him, if we need Willian on the right to help Ivanovic and Oscar is in poor form, he can go to the CAM spot. There are so many posibilities, depending on the situation. If we bag him for anything less than 40 mil., I'd love it.

Just keepin the daily moaning in this thread. Sorry. lol

OMG, WE HAVEN'T SIGNED ANYBODY ELSE?! SACK THE BOARD, MATE. DON'T THESE PEOPLE REALISE WE NEED FRESH PLAYERS TO WIN THE TITLE, AGAIN?!?! Just thought I'd lighten the mood, sorry.

Will keep saying this, if you offer me Messi or Ronaldo for Hazard, straight swap, I'd decline it, 10 out of 10. Bang, fucking, love this kid, don't care.

Falcao doesn't seem a confidence player to me. He is looking like a player that needs chances. If he has them, he'll take them, if he doesn't, he will be pretty much, well, useless.

We're getting Rob Green. Anything else wi be a surprise and an unexpected scenario. Green is a cheap, HG and reliable alternative on a significantly low wage.

Always liked him, but I think he's Wolfsburg's priced asset alongside KdB and Perisic. Underrated to the core, fantastic in terms of physicality and pace. Compairing him to Matic who is a sheer brute and is intelligent, this bloke is not as smart as him, but does tend to keep up with opponents a lot. Bags of stamina and work-rate. Would be a fantastic box-to-blox addition, IF we were to sign him for the right price. What is he though, 26?
