Filipe Luís

I got one word for you:

Zanetti

Fair enough, but I'd call him, "the exception."

It's like saying very short strikers can be good in the air, just because Romario was good in the air.

[Tomo 21,751]

In an ideal world we would sign both him and Shaw and put the latter on a loan programme akin to Courtois, but this is the real world and that is unrealistic.

Looks like this and not Shaw is the deal happening and while i desperately wanted (still do really) Luke for many reasons, this won't be a bad deal at all, one of the best LBs in the world, can give us 3-4 good years, which is a long time (to put it in perspective Ivan broke into being a CFC regular only 5 years ago, feels longer right?).

We need some HG players and Shaw would have been ideal but this guy would be a very good addition.

raise it to 60mill and add in Koke ,,, forget that they wont deal ... Raise it 55 mill if they take Torres back

Never been 100% sold on this transfer mainly due to the age issue if I'm honest but if the suggested price of £16m is true then that is a hell of a deal.

Chelsea are hustling everyone.

To be honest i dont understand why we need F.Luis. He is too old for us 29 years old and worth too much 16mln. I think best choice to pick between these players : R.Rodriguez,L.Shaw, A.Moreno,J.Bernat. Rodriguez can make us even stronger. 20 million will be enough for him plus he is still young.

[The Skipper 20,609]

£16m is just right. Great deal if true.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

If you think 16m is not a good deal, remember that we paid 22m for Jose Bosingwa!
