If Jose tells him he'll never play him again I'm sure he will not pull " a Molouda" when there's his last chance of playing at a World cup at the end of the season.

I hope we accept if it's 45m for him. There's a shortage of great strikers and fullbacks but there's always good CB 's who can defend better than him and enough DM's that we could upgrade at both positions with that money.

Madrid has more than two strikers btw

You DO NOT wait till you have offloaded players is my point for reasons already explained. and all those clubs that you listed are chasing more forwards because they understand you don't wait till you have offloaded players before trying to buy players you want to replace them.

That's not how a big club is run. clubs with less money do it because they often need to raise cash by selling before they buy but big clubs that are going for big targets need to buy them as soon as they can,before their target's are bought by other teams. We'll be able to offload some players later and likely easier once their replacements are brought in...most players have more dignity than Malouda and would rather leave than just claim wages for nothing.

De Rossi and a quality striker would make us the top team in England again and serious contenders for Champions of Europe again. I think we can have him for around 20m.even at his age that would be money well spent!

We should bid for him...just because a player appears to want to go to another club there's countless examples of players joining someone else. I can't see Dortmund playing hardball with the price either as they appear to have accepted he will leave sometime soon,just don't want to sell to their German rivals .

Talk about a totally misleading headline...

I reckon Todd Kane could offer us everything he can already if we want to infuse more English talent into our 25. only Todd can also grow into a better defender and we Don't have to deal with those cunts across the city.

Whoever will take him that needs a Wideman ..as long as it's in one of the major leagues..maybe to a French top flight club with PSG and Monaco being flush at the moment.they could be enticed to part with more than he's worth to us now.if he looks good at another French side.

When you find a solution to it youtube should be your Everest...something about the internet makes warriors out of button pressers.

Loan him out for a season. his stock shouldn't get any lower than it is now but it could get higher as he has shown the ability to look good in weaker teams. then sell him next season.

Makalele,Cech,Robben,Lampard,Joe Cole,Eidur,Terry,Duff,Bridge...yeah Jose doesn't do much with players he doesn't "sign"....

Put in a bid for Lewandowski and tell Napoli they can get in touch if they can get real.

Courtois should be cup tied for Champions league and there may be a clause that we can't recall him early btw...

For games against Hull,Palace and minor sides in the cup we could possibly get away with it but I'd hate to seem him between the sticks for a title run in or a major cup final. Would feel much happier to spend a few mill or even free transfer for some good veteran insurance.

I agree but also need a deputy for Petr. Hopefully a good veteran that hasn't won much silverware could be enticed,knowing that he could be one injury away from playing in some major cup finals etc..

I think the fact that south Americans speak either spanish or Portuguese depending on what countries they come from is a big factor too. Shouldn't put Cavani off coming tho,he's shown he's more intelligent than Tevez already in in learning a new language in Italy.

I agree it would be a good fit for him and he could end up looking good again for them, helping us to get a decent fee for him next summer.

Glad to see more people seeing it as I do. We can offload both ba and Torres then...ba has suitors and Barcelona sniffing around for Torres if the media are to be believed.

Like I said it's his least likely at this point but he's young and can be coached up to become a more complete player. Henry was a wingman in his earlier career.

There's how I added up to 4. He's a young player who can be shaped into however we want to play him.he has good movement,speed,height and a decent shot . lone striker would be his least likely at this point but I see good qualities in him already that a long striker needs. Especially when you look at the style of the players we would play directly behind him. we need strikers with good movement and quick feet more than a big John Charles type target man. His link up play I think would be a lot better than the current strikers on our books.

If he's true to his word that will keep him out of the clutches of Man Ure and give us the option of waiting another year to clear some space for him and seeing if we really need him once Jose has a closer look at the young players we've already got and/or might be bringing in this season.

Shurlle could play up to 4 positions for us.I see him as being far more than just depth at LW.

he should understand that once he joins bayern he only has 3 ways of leaving . Bayern no longer wanting him,he sees out his contract and refuses to sign a new one or he retires. Bayern Don't listen to transfer requests. if I was a pro and wanted to stay in Germany I'd stay with Dortmund be treated like a football god by fans and management who appreciate winners but Don't demand it every year and become a legend there not just another face in a long line of winners..also being able to leave when I want.
