James Rodríguez

[Special Juan 27,106]

Done deal to Bayern.

[Jase 43,479]

2-year loan deal with Bayern? Well, that came out of the blue!

[LAM09 6,559]

Don't see two year loans for big names that often.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Good for Carlo

[termninja 5,290]

What a great deal for them...not fair at all. But I'm still happy he didn't go to any of our rivals.

[the wes 7,212]

Smart business from Bayern Munich

 

[Sideshow Luiz 2,310]

I didn't really want him here, but that was more because of the fee.

2 year loan deal?  Okay (depending on the loan fee, I suppose).

Get that Bayern board on board...verspun der technik

Thankfully the website didn't work properly in last few days. When I heard Bayern got him for peanuts I went to insult the board, Emenalo and Marina in the most disgusting ways possible. All I can say is we deserve our fate, he board is trash for years now, Abramovic doesn't do anything regarding this, doesn't even bother to change things but if it's a manager who finishes 2nd he immediately sacks him, disturbing to say at least.

That's even worse if true. We're linked to crap like Vitolo, we can thank Atletico bought him before worse happened.

New rumours of links to him starting at Germany Sky Sports

Chelsea and Arsenal linked with James Rodriguez – who rejects Bayern move

Odd hes rejected a move to Bayern, thought it would more or less be a formality after how often he played there. Maybe he will go back to Real? Who knows? Would take him here 10000% though, guy is an absolutely class footballer.

If they are right, and there is a possibility to get this lad for £3m for 6 months of loan, the club should hijack this deal immediately. We desperately need a creative force like James to break up bus parking teams. He could easily play LCM, RW, LW or even false 9 under Sarri. He's also left footed attacking minded player which is something we are dearly missing right now

Also, we cannot allow Arsenal to get James. He would make Arsenal more convincing candidate for top4 finish

I've been wondering why we're not in for him. Set piece specialist, dead-ball specialist, Creates a lot of chances and can score goals, has played in the left of a midfield three before under Ancelloti and got 15 goals and 15 assists. Proven, why we're not even linked with him boggles the mind really.

We are not ever going to spend that type of money for him, unless Bayern exercises their £39.5m (dirt cheap!!!) buy option then sells him to use (trade CHO for him straight up as CHO is probably gone, even if he stays, £39.5m is half or maybe  a wee bit bit over half of what James is worth).

We are now looking at scrubs like Rogerio (LB on loan from Juve at Sassuolo, where is he is part-time starter on a shit team).

The board is packing it in.

Pulisic buy is a marketing ploy that will pay for itself. We are looking at a fat, 30-something massively in decline CF as our saviour, which has added benefit to Milan of them now buying Piatek probably, and Juve clearing their books for even more world-class spending.

I'm not his biggest fan, but this guy is a no-brainer upgrade to Barkley.  Maybe in the summer, isn't his loan deal expired then?  Madird don't seem to want him.
