Schurrle signing confirmed; will wear #14

Do we want to buy every good forward in Europe or what?

I think we where buying him for our RW option giving that Hulk might not happen due to the price Porto want.

[Marvin123 527]

yep all reports now reporting 16m GBP which is 20m+ euros

seems fair to me!

maybe return with a 18m pounds bid an leave it at that i say?

I think Gio dos Santos wouldnt be bad for a fair price below 10mio. He is absolutely fantastic in Mexico team, I never know why is he not playing at Spurs...

He could be one of those great talents who just need to change club. Sure we would get Hulk

too, but having Gio for less than 10mio would be wonderfull.

There were some rumours he might return to Barca, he has great ball skills, maybe Mata and Hazard can make him shine at club level too!

He's very similar to Danny on the wing, so I would say no.

I'm too lazy to read the first 4 pages.

But was I the only one not beeing convinced by him at the Euros ? He's will and seems to have a good mentality, he was present in the play but he had waaaay to much bad choices and waste on his last touches

He suffers from "Sturridge Syndrom". Striker being played out of position on the wing. He naturally looked too selfish.

I have to agree...I was thoroughly underwhelmed by his performance at the Euros. Just kinda buckled under the pressure and expectations. Reus did much better in the game where they both started (qf against Greece), pity he's already off to Dortmund*

He is off to Borrusia Dortmund, not Bayern pal

While he does have the same problems as Sturridge, Schurrle is less whiney and much harder worker.

The Euro's aren't that easy to judge players. Look at Ribery, Benzema, Young, Rooney, Van Persie, Robben etc they all had shockers in the Euro's. Players should be judged on their recent club form more imo. Schurrle wasn't great in the Euro's but i know he had a great season in Germany. We're linked with too many of the same players tho. We need to just earmark one and get him before we go to America.

Would be great if we do get a few of our transfers wrapped up before then. Would be good for any new players to get a good preseason with us to adjust although it isn't required, it is helpful

Reus is a much bigger talent then Schurrle and he went for 18m, it would be criminal if Schurrle went for more.
