Antoine Griezmann

He tweeted this 3 years ago...

Transfer confirmed

He might be but Koke is better than him there. Fabregas is still a bit of a defensive liability in that deep role. He still leaves a lot of spaces behind the midfield and Matic is left having to do a 2 man job on his own. That's what happened against Spurs and Mourinho hasn't really played him next to Matic since then. Fabregas lacks the athletic ability and positional awareness to play that role properly against good teams. Add that to the fact he rarely plays well in big games anyway. We won't have these problems with Koke.

Yes, I am again aware of those issues. I still dont believe that Koke will turn Fabregas into a bench player. Neither do I believe that Mou will put Koke next to Matic with Fabregas higher up, as Fabregas has been quite poor in the 10 role.

I did consider that, but Fabregas is best suited deep. I doubt that Koke is meant to send Fabregas to the bench. Koke is versatile enough to operate higher up in my opinion.

The best solution is to play a 4-3-3

Matic

Koke fabregas

We would be more dominant in possession. While hazard would be further upfront.

no bitch willian has to play

His movement and finishing.. damn.

Would make a brilliant signing.

We should look for that kind of level with our signings!

For his development, imo, I think he should stay with Atletico for another season. Though I'm sure he'd be a bit pissed if we bought him just to keep him there. This one really depends on the situation of what we do with Bamford and a third choice centre-forward if we choose to sign one.

Getting Koke+Griezman sound like one of the best things we could do, but Atletico probably wont let both go, and tbh it feels wrong that we want all of their players i mean i dont want us to have 5 players in our XI who came from Atletico.

Luis doesn't play, Courtouis was our own. I could care less. Bayern are playing widely with the Bundesliga, no one gives much of a damn. lol

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Griezmann, Reus I think they dont fit in PL tbh. They suit spanish league much more.

[LondonsFinest 692]

Seeing as though , United bought Depay for such a price, we'd blow the market away with a 30 million. EURO signing of Griezmann, imo.

Apparently...

Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann keen on summer move to Stamford Bridge
