Marco Reus

I still gamble on reus for that price.

Maybe, with the current injury, less suitors for Reus.

[ChelseaFC12 134]

Shit I really wanted him. I hope it's one of Jose secret lies before a transfer.

Some people have limited rationality it seems.

There is a big difference between having ankle injuries and having a chronic ankle problem. If someone smacks me in my toe several times and I keep having to put it in a cast then I'm unlucky, and nothing more (except in pain). If I keep having toe problems that keep me from performing my duty as a player and they arise without any trauma then I would say its chronic.

To use a simple example:

If someone kept smacking Nike in the head which resulted in him writing annoying and nonsensical posts he would be unlucky but otherwise function normally.
If he keeps writing annoying and nonsensical posts without any trauma I would say the problem is more likely related to chronic stupidity.


Returning to Reus I would say that he has been unlucky in a few tackles that sidelined him, and then having the usual weakness in the muscles that come from said injury affecting the area causing him to miss a few short periods.

That doesn't really mean anything. Did anyone really expect Mourinho to just say at this point in the season "I think our current players are shit and we're doing everything we can to bring in a quality player like Reus" when any potential deal is still very, very far from being completed and there's still a long time before the transfer window even opens.

That being said I don't believe for a second that we'll get him be it in January or next summer but Mourinho denying everything means very little.

[Barbara 15,149]

I think Mourinho could have answered in many other ways if he wanted to mask his interest. A straight 'no' answer is a real no imo... I don't see us going for him in the winter window. Actually saved from injuries, I don't see us buying anyone in January and I'm not sure we'll enter the auction for him in the summer window.

I don't think we're going after him at all.

If someone kept smacking rekin in the head, which resulted in him writing illogical posts he would be unlucky.

However, if rekin keeps writing dumb posts without any reason, that is due to just plain stupidity.

Jose has to lie... It wouldn't be nice for BVB if Jose says he is interested. It's a rule that all managers use.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Give it a rest people, even if he was fit doubt he would be leaving in Jan haha. Let this die until next summer.

There's no doubt we won't get him in the winter window. It's impossible to buy good players at that time. Also, he has some injury problems. We are gonna wait until the summer.

if you think that's happening, I'd expect a very long January indeed.

[Barbara 15,149]

Nemanja Matic says hi!

Someone recently brought up Jose's record of signings in January and it's pretty low. We had a DM situation last season . We definitely don't have an AM situation right now. We actually have three players - four if you count Ramires to play there. So I don't think the situations are comparable at all.

Prices in January are inflated, the club's philosophy has been to spend wisely so unless we're activating some release clause to hijack someone's business I can only see us selling...

[Tautvix 1,321]

Nemanja Matic says hi!

Lol I didn't mean that but you got me there But Borussia will be in the next round of CL and Borussia don't want to lose Reus now and Reus will probably want to stay now. Nothing more to add. I think we will get him but only in Summer.

I didn't make the post to try imply anything about Reus coming or not. I made the post to merely point out Matic is a gd player we bought in Jan lol.

a v gd post, though. (as per usual)

The issue here is not whether he's "injury prone" or not but that the effect that the serious injuries he has accumulated over the past few years will have on him. he's already suffered two back to back serious knee injuries in the last 5 months, even his biggest fan can see it's a major cause for concern. as much as people like to dismiss it, no player is superhuman and Reus is no exception and people are right to preach caution regarding signing a player that has endured two major knee injuries in quick succession.

We all saw the effect this injury had on essien and torres.

And Lampard.People tend to forget that he was never the same since his injury in the beggining of the 2010/2011 season.
