Club has a rule of no multi year deals to guys 30 or older. I'd love for us to get Vidal but will believe it when I see it. Also, with RLC having a good season that will make it even harder to justify the move.
Not many. Although, him actually getting a summer off this year will be interesting to see what happens fall of 18.
Bayern is really good at shit not leaking in advance so if the Bavarians are confident and you can’t seem to find out why it’s probably safe to defer to them.
Contract was running out but yeah it's cheap. His value did fall off a cliff after that season where him and Lukaku had a really good connection.
He's out of contract in the summer, not playing, and not good enough for Chelsea. Doesn't seem like either team wins, only thing that wins is Barkley's bank account.
Ups our English quota and gives us a little bit of depth. Still need a wingback and probably another striker this window
man i just don't get the timing for both teams at all. it's not like we can't win the league/ copa without him at this point
If they want him, which they clearly do, why not get him now versus waiting? Waiting runs the risk of not getting him in the summer and it's not like he can't help in the league.
You are like £130m richer as a club. Didnt Pool pay only like 8m for him? And I'm sure Milner and Can will hold down the midfield for you guys until summer. Spoiler
Bayern will sign him for 10% of his actual worth and then send him out on loan for the remainder of the decade IMO IYAM
I would think that we would have to have someone if we were so easily convinced to sell Coutinho. Even for the ridiculous amount of money.
If we can somehow dump Miggy and turn him and Phil into Lemar/Mahrez/Pulisic, a CDM, and a new Keeper then I might be ok. We need to have someone lined up though.
I’d take any of it and probably be ok. Is it too much to ask for it all though? We have the cash to burn now.
In this market - £30-50 mil? I don’t really have a good idea anymore. Lemar is being quoted at £90 mil Mahrez at £50 Pulisic would be probably £30, but he’s probably worth more to PL teams because of the US market.
