Marko Marin

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Well buying five Marko Marins probably wont bring us PL title next year, while combination of Marin and Hulk could...

[OneMoSalah 8,885]

One or two top players just have to come. We cant buy 5 Marin type of players...

Hulk would be 35 and Moutinho 25. That is 60mio. Adding Marin for 8 and Azpi for 12. Gives you 80mio. By selling Malouda, Yossi, Bosingwa Kalou, Ferreira we get about 20mio and 60-70mio overall isnt too much for squad rebuild. We need creative midfielder and there are options; Moutinho, Mvila, witsel, Martinez, Cabaye or Modric. Everyone would cost us at least 25mio or more. Moutinho is best for the price. And he would pair Hulk great.

We cant sell Kalou and Bosingwa because they are out of contract this year. We won't get much for Malouda and Yossi either, maybe like 5 million a piece. Plus Javi Martinez and Yann M'Vila are both defensive midfielders which is not what we need. Joao Moutinho won't leave for anything under 36.5 million euros which is his release clause and Porto have stood firm on that when we wanted him in the summer so we won't give him and known us we won't get Witsel or Modric either. Maybe Cabaye would move but hes only one year in to his Newcastle contract and they are more likely to get CL football than us unless we go and win every game remaining.

Paying 60-70 million for two players is insane as well, yes we payed 71 million for David Luiz and Torres but look where the bulk of that went. We will need to spend wisely, maybe 60-70 million on like 5 or 6 players if we are to stay within the FFP rules as well. Imo the summer is going to be mad because we haven't even got a manager yet and if we appoint someone it will probably be at the same time as AVB.... if it isn't Di Matteo that is.

I've hear a fair few people dismiss this signing as a poor decision. Maybe they are butthurt or perhaps they are just morons?

I would guess both. This is a low risk, high reward purchase.

This is what he's capable of, lads:

Barca should of signed him

[Spike 12,049]

So he is similar to Mata in the sense that he hits the post a lot.

[Sheva. 5,373]

I remember watching that game against Sampdoria, he was fantastic.

[capriccioso 2,545]

The shots were impressive, but what I wanted to show there was his ball control and dribbling ability.

That was the tie of the entire CL season, IMO, 5-4 win to Bremen, just a shame that that was the playoffs rather than a knockout match as both teams deserved to go through.

[OReillyD36 311]

Looks a good player, remember watching him tear spurs apart last season but his finishing wasn't quite there but he's dribbling and vision make up for that. Shrewd bit of business if the reported fee is true.

You are not the only one, but i have seen others do the same. No way would Ramires work in the double pivot role. Not once has he played in that role under RDM.

The way he runs at the defender in the first video is just brilliant, hope to see him do that time after time next season

I remember thinking the exact same, no team deserved to lose that tie.

This. Only time he played there for us was against Napoli, and he was sooooooooo shit lol.

[KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607]

Is he a LW or RW? I'll assume he's a left wing. Either way we still have room for Hazard #AManCanDream
