He also tweeted this.

Looks like we are gonna fight with United for every transfer target...

[Mr_President 404]

Kroos-Matic?

Would mean the end of Ramires as a definite starter I think, he doesn't have the passing quality of the above two. Can't see us getting this guy though, despite how great it could be.

He would be awesome for United though, the kind of player that they need more than Mata IMO.

I cant belive Pep will let him go, he's too important for his 4-3-3 ambitions,and Bayern are already short of CM's.

Are they short on CMs?

Schweinsteiger, Thiago, Gotze (although he's playing a more advanced position), Muller, Javi Martinez... seems like they're stacked.

Muller and Gotze are AM's. Its like saying Hazard and Willian are CM's.

I'd laugh all the way to the bank if Jose signed this guy. Fuck United, fuck Bayern. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Would be a great signing. Such a rounded player, will be just as good if not better than Schweinsteiger. If we can get him, then go for it.

Hardly think Bayern are 'Short on CMs', especially given Guardiaola's inclination to play Lahm as a holding midfielder lol. Then they have Martinez, Shweinsteiger and Thiago for orthodox CM positions, whilst somehow fitting in: Robben, Ribery, Gotze, and Lewandowski next year. I think it is fair to say they are not short on CMs given they won't be playing with more than 2 of them.

Kroos is too good for the bench and would be welcome here if he is surplus to requirements at Bayern.

Kroos & Matić in the pivot?

8============D~~~~

God tier. Those two shielding the back four and starting attacks from deep? My goodness. The option of having a midfield 3 of Kroos-Matić-Ramires in a 4-3-3. Damn!

Does play like the typical José player as well. Can't see him leaving Bayern though, unfortunately. He would fit like a glove in the CM of either us or United next to another top class partner.

Have a word Schürrle!

[Melanicus 5,208]

He is good player, great passer with vision and all. But he is fucking slow, too slow for counter attacks.

[Spike 12,049]

This is 50/50 for me. I wouldn't be surprised if he stayed or left Bayern. Maybe he is worried that Pep will force him to play in a position that he isn't comfortable with or that he will become a bench player. Who knows what goes through that shiny bald head.

He is good player, great passer with vision and all. But he is fucking slow, too slow for counter attacks.

I don't really think pace has anything to do with his playing style. He plays around his weaknesses and uses his strengths to his advantage. Xabi Alonso and Cesc Fabregas have never been quick but that has not stopped them from being able to play a high tempo attacking game with a splash of countering. He has the passing range and vision to get around this weakness.

for some people it seems the grass is always greener on the other side

[Rekin 835]

Funny, I was thinking about him earlier today.

This guy is unreal, would be a beast next to Matic. Excellent passing, good shots, young etc. I'm all for building internally, but some players are just too good to pass up on and Kroos is one of them.

we will swap luiz for kroos; dante will go to united; we will sign zouma to replace luiz; in summer lampard leaves and so does mikel. leaving rameries van ginkel matic kross to play double pivot and kross will play #10 when oscar needs rest.

[sdrcfc 461]
