2017 Transfer Talk

Don't Bayern have a pretty disciplined wage structure? He might end up there but I doubt it's for those wages. If I remember correctly that is a big reason why Kronos ended up at Real Madrid.

 

As long as it doesn't involve De Gea I'm good with it.

 

Milan have no intentions of meeting Costa's 200k a week salary. Plus his camp is spinning it already as him not wanting to play in Italy. The dude just wants atleti

 

Raiola can burn in hell forever

 

Trapp leaving then?

 

Part of me hopes that we just throw him in the reserves and tell him to have fun watching the World Cup from home but I think something gets worked out in the end. No way he plays for Chelsea again though.

 

It's still super early in the market. As the weeks pass by the reality of his situation will likely kick in. Maybe that brings Milan back in play (I hope not) but it seems like Milan have decided to keep working the top three striker options till one team comes off its high price tags

 

I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up at United. I'm kind of surprised he hasn't been linked yet but I guess you make every attempt to get him out of the league because he is good.

 

How did that go down hill so fast?

 

conte has had problems with costa all year. He just had to try his best to get the most out of him this year. Some Chelsea fans love costa's passion but he is completely unreliable. Costa is a top 10 striker in the world when he wants to be. No one except Diego can control him though and consistently get the best out of him. I think next season ends up a lot more like our 10th place finish than last season if he stayed as the main striker.

 

Looks like Patrik Schick to Juve

 

Wait wasnt he the main striker all year?

 

Yea and he was also the main striker when we finished 10th. Conte got about 6 months out of costa before they stopped getting along. Costa was absolutely awful the second half of the season. Hazard, Pedro and others Carried Chelsea to the finish line from an offensive standpoint because costa was complete shit second half of the year. He refused to train last summer, tried to get sold last summer, demanded to be subbed out early in the year, had a training ground bust up with a fitness coach and conte that caused him to get benched in January, caused problems after the game we won the title, gave an exit interview stating that he wants to be sold to atletico again amongst other problems. He's just not someone you can count on as a professional in any capacity. When he wants to be good though he's very good and mourinho for one season and conte for half a season got enough to get us 2 titles.

 

Yes but there were a few issues throughout the year, the biggest during the January transfer window where he was apparently refusing to play in hopes of securing a move to China.

 

Such a good signing :(

 

agree but thankfully I dont think he will play much

 

Gnabry to Bayern.

Essentially Bayern bought him and loaned him to Bremen for a year, Bremen swore they bought him for themselves though. Shady ass transfer.

 

So much for the Hoffenheim buzz

 

I don't know why the rest of the BL seemingly bend over backwards for Bayern. Especially with non-German players when the DFB isn't involved.

 

Lindelof and Morata is a nice start. Now, who will be the midfielder we need with Pogba?

 

Fellaini!

 

Several in the English media saying this isn't true. Raiola said he was staying in Europe a week or two ago as well.

Supposedly having his medical tomorrow.

 

Apparently Chelsea are going to lodge a complaint against Liverpool for tapping up solanke. It looks like Liverpool are trying really hard to get a transfer ban.

 

There are reports that Milan have agreed to sign Andre Silva from Porto, and Silva is supposedly in Milan already with a medical scheduled for tomorrow.

Milan assembling the hottest team in Europe once again.

 

D

They'll get there but slow down. It's still like a retarded PSG squad.

 

That's a really good signing. I think he can take a big step forward if he is given a better team

 

I was talking in terms of aesthetic hotness, not play.

 

Valbuena to Fenerbahçe

Independent company does valuations of players. Thought the new list was relevant in here since some players already on the move or who could be on the move are listed

The list loses a ton of credibility when 31 yr old Gary Cahill is listed above 25 yr old Virgil van Dijk 31 yr old Sergio Ramos and 30 yr old Leonardo bonucci but I think the list has a lot of god and is always an interesting read.

 

In this market I would pay that for him. One season as a rotation player to get his feet wet and then he will be flying. Incredible player
