Juan Cuadrado

[LAM09 6,742]

Well, he has rejected the contract extension with Dortmund. Come next summer with a lot of big clubs around Europe knocking the door with a bag of 20 millions in their hand, let's see.

I agree, he'll be gone in the summer. My point is about people thinking he would come to us now. If there is any hope of something materialising; it'll happen after the 1st July.

I believe the reason Reus is still Dortmund player today, is because no club yet are crazy enough to bid 20+ millions. But that's my opinion though.

I would be shocked if that's the reason, but he is currently injured (as far as I'm aware).

He has recovered, and even has played for 45 minutes in friendly.

Ok, thanks for info. I wasn't sure what condition he was in, as the Bundesliga is still on it's winter break.

Or because the guy is made of glass and will miss more than half a season every year

[GhanaBoy 104]

if you guys are going to talk about reus he has his own thread, stop updating us with this nonsense!!!!!

From what I read in his thread, according to most in here, he is not that injury prone.

He has recovered now though.

Still not convinced by him. 26million pounds is a lot of sum. And if we are replacing Schurrle/Willian in RW we need a player who have decent output i.e goals and assists or who can be decisive in final third. But this guys output is just marginally better than Schurrle and WIllian.

So let's see. I'm not having any high hopes on him...

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Another plus about this guy is that he is hardly ever injured too. Check his record, he has been out for only 2 weeks out of like 3 years. http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/juan-cuadrado/verletzungen/spieler/91970

He has a much better output than Willian.

Willian: 71 matches, 7 goals scored: a goal every 10th match

Cuadrado at Fiorentina: 105 matches, 25 goals: a goal every 4th match (pretty much the same output Hazard has for us from open play). His assists stats are much better than Willian's too.

We are negotiating with Fiorentina.

If we bring in Cuadrado, then we'll have 4 established pen takers in Costa, Haz, Drogs and him. Vital for the the cup games ahead.

Fabregas and Oscar would not be bad 5th and 6th options either.

He normally doesn't take penalties(he took only 1 penalty ever for Fiorentina). And Costa isn't an established penalty taker for us. I don't know where people got the idea Costa will take penalties for sure. When Hazard didn't play, Fabregas took the penalty for us.

Took them pretty consistently for Atletico I think?
