Axel Witsel

Yes, please!

My ideal player in this position.

Tired of life in Russia.....well there is a surprise.

Will cost at least £30m but well worth it.

I think if we signed him (I actually think we may well do considering Jose is a fan and we need to add to that area etc. unless we get Van Ginkel and then just leave central midfield) it'd be best to adopt Arsenal's sort of 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 or whatever it is they use. I don't think Witsel is disciplined enough to play a proper deep role (which would also limit some of his qualities), but is perfectly capable at a more normal centre role in a pair. He could sit where Wilshere sits at Arsenal, have a player who stays back a bit more beside him where Arteta sits (Mikel? De Rossi?) with Mata then playing just in front of them.

Put De Bruyne on the right, Hazard on the left, then The Fridge up top. Lovely

Remember guys, Mourinho wanted Witsel at Real Madrid but Benfica priced them out. If he's available now, we should definitely be in for him.

#PSG have made an initial offer of €40m for Zenit midfielder Axel Witsel (L'Equipe)

If so, I think it's us blown out of the block right away.....that is if we are interested.

Fuck me .... that much?

He might be worth it though ......... (Im so biased on him)

I honestly think PSG start every player they bid for with 40ME.....Watch them go for Darren Bent next week and start at 40ME

no chance now lol

[Leif 6,006]

ffs they don't need Witsel at all (PSG). They have their playmaker in Verratti, their box-to-box player in Matuidi, the promising Rabiot who they're adamant will turn out as a regular senior player soon, Motta as a stand-in central midfielder and apparently they want to sign another French midfielder such as Gonalons. They seem to be continuing with a 4-4-2 so surely Witsel would be overkill?

[Stingray 9,441]

What if Mourinho was being sincere when he said just 1 or 2 signings ... and this is one of the targets ...

Plzzzzzzzz .... I will never post a dirty gif anymore for the rest of my life !

[Gorando 184]

an initial offer

I'd start with an initial offer of 20M. you never know

[Leif 6,006]

We can't just accept right away that PSG's rumoured bid is true while also maintaining that bids for De Rossi, Boateng, whoever we've been linked with are 'false and bullshit' lol.

[Pizy 18,864]

He'd be worth that much to us. I'd like to think we'd be the most attractive destination for him if we were after him because he'd be a nailed on first team player, has a shit load of his Belgian mates in the team, and then on top of that gets to be coached by Mourinho.

Talk about the stars aligning! Hopefully we're monitoring his situation.

Come on Axel, you fucked last year in a shity league, don't do it again and come to the Bridge
