IkE 267 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 These are good news!, everyone wants Cavani so Falcao's price won't increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzchap 8,966 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 These are good news!, everyone wants Cavani so Falcao's price won't increase.Hmm maybe because Cavani is better?Don't want another big striker - that ain't our problem! Despite me thinking it was earlier in te season!We need DLP / B2B midfielders AND a CB before we consider a striker!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you in the urgency to get a good CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,927 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'd be on my way to London with a very high caliber weapon to murder each of our board members if they sell Courtois and de Bruyne. Just pay the fucking money straight up for Falcao and let Courtois stay for a year longer on loan. That, or Torres +£25m. Courtois is a priceless asset for the future. Cannot be sold under any circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place to be 11,313 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I honestly think the idea of us using Courtois or De Bruyne as bait is reporters putting 2+2 together and getting a lemon.Like someone said earlier, if we trigger the release fee then they can't ask for Courtois - they could apply a monetary value to the year-long loan spell (Around €5 million at a guess) and then come back with an offer, but we're not obliged to countenance it.What I think is important to this deal is Torres. I'm not a fan of getting Falcao, but I'm even less of a fan of keeping Torres around next season and I've thought for a long time that Atletico is his only real option out of here. We can pray for a Russian oligarch to take him off our hands but that's unlikely, especially with his wages demands. Maybe his marketability sways them (he's still one of our top shirt sellers despite being shit for two years) but I think Madrid holds mutual attraction for the two parties.They might get the hometown discount, where the lure of sun and sangrias entices him to lower his wage demands or backload his contract with performance incentives. He's still a hero there and maybe he can do better in the Spanish league - he still scored on the biggest stage last year at the Nou Camp.What I think is fairly certain at this point is nothing is certain about this deal - like everything about this club I think it's tied up in where we finish the season. Falcao isn't a young man so every season counts. Until we know our situation next season, everything is speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin123 534 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Is 25m with lukaku and courtoius going on a years loan good enough??That's what I'd push for!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 £30m/£35m with Torres going the other way would be a decent deal. Unrealistic but decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laeth 527 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Apparently the odds on Falcao to join Chelsea have been slashed massively over the course of today (even before the Bild story). Odds on at the moment to join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin123 534 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 BIG NEWS! Falcao cut from 6/1 at start of the day to 1/5 to join Chelsea this summer, & Mourinho going with him!--> http://t.co/TdC8rUkhrV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 He's like Benzema.. maybe even Inzaghi; He scores goals. It starts and ends at that. That works fantastically in the correct team. I have no idea whether we are that team or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutcho 8,443 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Oh fuck it. I have never particularly wanted him, but he is a great finisher... Hopefully not an expensive flop but i can get behind him. Big positive is that it should mean torres is a gonner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
