Antoine Griezmann

[Laugh1ngMan 393]

Not massively against this signing but for me we need a pure out and out wide man, not one that can play there, but one that was born for that role.

Take Willian for example, he can play wide but he's a better #10. We should be plumming for a pacey and top notch wide man this summer...Bale or Pedro being up there.

But then...how would Ivanovic bomb forward if there is someone in the way?

Overrated player, another player that is usually 1st to get substituted in big game because of fitness/mental weakness. For a flat track bully I wouldn't pay more than 20-25m max but the problem is Atletico paid that themselves so they need to make a profit.

He can still massively improve, with Jose he can only get better.

Give him a gun.

I prefer de Bruyne!

Cuadrado!! LOL. He's a pure wide attacker and was born for that role.

He's your typical squad man and as I was saying, we need an out an quality option on that side. Cuadrado has lots to prove and as we all know we aren't shy in signing people for roles of players, that aren't doing it.

I'm gonna wait till the new season before I formulate a real opinion on this guy. Clearly he hasn't adjusted to the speed and power of the Prem and its hard to do it with a spot 5mins here and there.

I agree, but I'm also saying it wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility that we go for a top class wide man.

How reliable is The Telegraph? Reading the piece, it sounds made up.

It is more than likely made up. Every newspaper, no matter how reliable need click bait.

It would depend on who of course. Griezmann is a striker if you ask me, on capable of playing out wide but more of a secondary striker like Sturridge.

I wouldn't say their transfer stories are reliable because some can be made up/just rumours while others can be true. But they do hold more credibility than the likes of Daily Express, Daily Star, Metro, The Sun etc. The Telegraph are one of the three reputable media outlets along with Sky Sports and Guardian in England IMO.
