Jase 43,479 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 The only thing that is holding up this transfer from going through is Leverkusen wants to get a replacement in first before letting Schurrle go. Other than that, the deal is pretty much done already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toli 977 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Waste of transfer funds in my eyes. What is our fascination with this man? De Bruyne is 10 times the player he is and we're prepared to let him go. This club...sometimes it's just....you cant compare KDB with schürrle. completely different sort of players...the one is a inisde-forward, the other one is a playmaker. KDB is not good on the wings, clearly stronger in the centre of the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 But he is a true winger and has much more potential.. He can beat a player and does not always do the same thing and shoots...Farfan. If you ever watched him, you know why he would be great here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 farfan is good but will be already 29 in october...Im sure there must be some experience too, bit old but he has some killer through passes/crosses. We lack that badly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 and we're prepared to let him go We aren't though, just because there are rumours someone is interested in our player doesn't mean we're prepared to let him go.Farfan. If you ever watched him, you know why he would be great here.We should be aiming higher than players of Farfan's calibre, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 We should be aiming higher than players of Farfan's calibre, sorry.Realy? Farfan's only weakness is his age, but aside from that, he has everything we need for a winger. He is incredibly muscular, decent height (1,78) and superb sprinter. He tracks back (similar to Pedro), but what he is best is that he offers width. His dribbling drags defenders on him, giving space for Huntelaar and others. His crosses/through balls are fantastic, you rarely get that in wingers nowdays. Do we have proper crossers? No. IF Cavani ever comes, someone like Farfan is 10times more usefull than Sanchez or Schurrle. Farfan can dribble, play short passes (from Psv times) and cross very good. He isnt real finisher, but he can score (in past he had rocket in his legs, nowdays he is more of team player and wants to deliver ball to strikers, rather to shot himself). As from defensive rate, he isnt Schurrle, but still much better than Mata or Hazard. His physical strenght is key in his dribbles (while Sanchez uses mostly fast tricks). You wont get this guy of the ball when he is attacking unless he will want to dive. While dribbling, he also relies on his pace (still extremely fast, like he was very young). Pace is what we lack in attack, thing is that Farfan can drive the ball through flanks with speed or if opponent playa tight defence, he could do one-twos with Hazard and Mata. His passing is realy good, you know. Not xavi but certainly equal to Hazard (less flair but more calm passer). He can pose threat from set pieces and when he takes long shots. One thing, he is also very experienced (regular player in CL) and now plays in BuLi, league that is alredy on high level and physicaly strong one.As I said, his age is his major flaw, because he 28 already. That isnt going with our policy, but hey, we cant have just young players...I think he would fit with Mou well, he isnt trouble maker off pitch or on it, and he can play either possesion or counter football. And he is NATURAL right winger, he would fit in team perfectly. Schurrle isnt skilled passer and Sanchez is never coming under Mou, I think...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 We should have signed Farfan two years ago, when we were also linked with him. He is just like a faster, more skilled, more experienced and more mature Moses. He would give us great balance in the attacking team, surely more than Schürrle or whoever. Sadly he is already on the way down and won't get any better. He would probably need some time to acclimatize to the EPl and at his age he does not have that time.

Alabama 1,992 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 will give the team another dimension of attacking threat especially with the precious ingenuity of our mazascar trinity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
