Wishlist Robert Lewandowski

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Still. There is always a risk of the club being turned into a circus all of a sudden. Has happened in the past.

Of course there's nothing for certain. I just think the chance of us signing big name players especially those from elite clubs is slim.

I honest think the chance of us signing Falcao is higher than Lewandowski.

I fully believe this is a planted story to make us budge on bidding!! We have been in contact since 2 nov am I right??

Tbh i dont think we have ever been seriously linked with lewandowski so far.

He would most likely stay with Dourtmund ,seeing as they are doing so well in the CL , i would not be suprised if they got to the final.

I really want one of Dortmund or Shaktar to go all the way and win it.

He will stay in Dortmund until the end of the season for sure, but if we really want to sign him, there's a great chance in the summer. Robert's contract expires in 2014 which means, if BVB still wants a trasfer fee for him, they have to sell him in summer. I'm not sure if Lewandowski will sign a new contract. The media says that the talks so far have showed that he more likely will leave the club. You must know, Lewandowskis next contract is going to be the one, where he'll be on top of his form and Dortmund don't have financial opportunities like we have seeing as the transfer of Reus where they paid 17m transfer fee was claimed to be the "transfer of the century" for them. If we want to sign him, we have good chances, but in summer. I like Robert, he's a class striker, but not a world class striker as Falcao or Cavani. But he'd definitely fit into the English football, I think.

Reports saying that he will be available for as little as 15m in the summer!

[GermanBlue 82]

I think 15m is an ok price for him and in contrast to what we'd have to pay for Falcao or Cavani, the risk is lower. Still need one of them imo and get Robert as a second striker and maybe play with 2 strikers. Also, we could do a lot more rotation.

I think thats a fantastic price for him.

In other news, Dortmund trying to sign a RB and CF in January. 90% chance Lewandowski will leave in the summer

Imagine if we got him and Llorente in the summer, along with a different option like Sturridge (If he stays). Would go from a completely toothless attack to one of the best in Europe.

Indeed.

My main gripe with us signing Lewandowski was the fact that he'd cost around £30m+. If the quoted price for £15m however is true then he could be one of the signings of the season - I'd take him definitely.

I think the quoted price stems from the fact that in the summer he will have one year left on his contract, just like Kagawa did. If he becomes available for anything around £20m I'd take him in a heartbeat, especially over £48m for a 27/28 year old Falcao (And when Lewand is more suited to our team).
