He isn't first team quality. Best to stay clear.

says the guy who thinks that salah is :rolleyes:

douglas costa is amazing technically, great at set pieces, great vision, great crossing, decent shooting and is good at anticipating play ... i wouldn't hesitate at all to sign him

Does anyone think we'll sign both Costa and Cuadrado? if we sell Salah and Schurrle i could see it happening. Right now the main trio (Hazard,Oscar and Willian) are starting basically every game, it's kind of ridiculous. If it means Jose will start rotating the squad i'm all for it. I would rather we sign Cuadrado and promote a youngster (Boga) but if Jose doesn't trust Salah or shurrle i doubt he'll trust a youth product starting a PL/FA/League cup game.

Could be another case of the player using the situation to suit their own agenda (whatever they may be). Nothing concrete so far.

I guess it is possible. Chelsea can do the same way City did with Bony - buy now and cover the FFP money in the summer.

Schurrle out for 23m. Cuadrado in for 23m. FFP covered now.

Douglas Costa in for 16m. Thorgan Hazard out for 6m and Salah out for 11m, with FFP covered in the summer because of the Salah deal. Plus 1m profit.

Our team is gonna be full of guys with nothing but good workrate.

That is the Mou way. I'm not sure why you're surprised.

We're never going to get a player that pushes up offensively and is constantly beating his man on the other wing. Jose is perfectly fine having Hazard do that, and occasionally have Matic push up, but the other winger in our system will always essentially be a wing back. So naturally it will be a player who is a work horse and who tracks back like crazy.

Why do you think a player like Schurlle is falling out of favor and is now most likely leaving? Because he only plays the offensive side.

Well the formula of Hazard in the free(ish) role and the right winger running around like a dog has got us 5 points clear at the top of the league playing our best football for years and scoring the most goals in the PL.

While his end product might be a bit frustrating Willian has been a key element to our success so far.
