I have not heard much about him outside of some Ligue 1 Twitter follows saying that he would be a steal given the price being talked about.
absolute class player... but i feel like this is a move that is bound to fail. he'll go there, not do much and people will shit all over L1 -> PL transfers.
I don't think it's a coincidence that both Shaqiri and Origi have been held out for LFC. Those 2 + 45 million in installments to bring in CR7. - indykalia, probably
He has always sucked he’s like odegaard he’s young so people think he’s better than he is but they’re both like league two caliber
If there is interest I don't mind them squeezing a few more out of other teams. Happens to us all the time. Also, I agree, way closer to ten than 20.
if arsenal can get 10 plus 2-3 in realistic add ons that would be good business. Can’t afford to do this one like xhaka though and turn holding out for more into him staying. I understand the appeal of staying in London but going to Germany would probably be what’s best for his career. I think he’d do well there.
1. Buy player from Italy 2. Player pisses and moans about only wanting to move back to Italy 3. You can only loan them out as they wind down their contract 4. Decide no more players from Italy
I assume some combination of people sweating Schalke out and him wanting higher wages than clubs want to give him.
Going to the League Two well a bit too often mate, gotta start mixing it up. Throw in National League, or National League North/South a bit to keep it fresh
This is where you fucked up national league is a better/more competitive league than league two because there is no salary cap n00b
Nothing like dropping ~35mil for a player who doesn't start for his current club, and wouldn't start for yours.
