The Transfers Thread

[Magma]

I wonder how many players have played at the top level in France, Italy, England and Spain

Beckham and Henry come to mind

deschamps, blanc, davids, kluivert, pannuci are some others that come to mind.

i want to say john carew too.

 

[chef]

cavani hasn't signed for psg YET.

the fee still needs to be agreed with napoli. that's the same situation that we're apparently in with cavani. psg will most likely offer his release clause, we won't.

According to one of the tabloids Cavanis preferred EPL destination was Chelsea, but we've put all our eggs in the Falcao basket.

Carew. Tick

Momo Sissoko and Karembeu a couple more

wait, my mistake. kluivert never played in france. neither did davids. pannuci did but im not sure if monaco were in ligue 1.

same guy that broke the gotze story is saying from 2 different sources in munich that gomez is close to chelsea.

Hope this happens. We need someone who can finish Mazacar's good work.

How much $?

 

[Magma]

Davids didn't play in France.

You left out the obvious one too... Anelka!

 

[moomba]

Gomez a good signing or not?

Can't argue with his record but I can see him flopping.

 

[Cruyff14]

Good poacher, should work.

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

Chelsea "on the verge of securing a 46 million quid deal for Falcao, on a 200,000 quid/week contract", according to DM. He's a player i can't see flopping.

 

[THE411]

Gomez scored 24 goals in his first 71 games for Stuttgart, 14 goals in his first 45 games for Bayern and 5 goals from his first 21 games for Germany.
His goalscoring record for all teams becomes unquestionably impressive from those points and is definitely a very good player, but hes been a slow starter in the past. It would be interesting to see how a slow start would go down at Chelsea whose supporters turned quite quickly on Shevchenko and Torres after they made a slow starts. They obviously never recovered from that.
Would be a great signing though I reckon, Chelsea are only an upgrade on Torres and Mikel away from having an amazing first 11.

 

[Stratton_Gun]

I reckon Falcao is more likely to be a flop than Gomez

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Also I think this is good news in a way for United as Lewondowski wants to leave and I can't see 2 of Dortmunds best players being sold to their biggest rivals

The question is does united really need another striker though. I mean we already have vp Rooney welbeck and Hernandez unless one is Def going I don't see how we'd fit lewie in

You also don't rate Neymar.

Your opinion is void.

I think Nani and Anderson will be sold and Scholes will retire. Rooney should go permanently to CM and we sign one more in maybe Strootman or Thiago (wishing). Welbeck will go to the wing and we have Lewandowski RVP and Hernandez as strikers.

I rate him but the Brazilian league is not a good barometer

 

[THE411]

Surely if United are in a need of a winger and a CM it would make more sense to go out and buy a winger and a CM, rather than buying a striker and moving 2 current strikers to CM and a wing?

 

[typeclub]

Gomez has the best goals to min ratio. Once every 68 mins its better than Ronaldo and Messi. Falcao takes about twice as long to score than Gomez

 

[Hap Hapablap]

I think Nani and Anderson will be sold and Scholes will retire. Rooney should go permanently to CM and we sign one more in maybe Strootman or Thiago (wishing). Welbeck will go to the wing and we have Lewandowski RVP and Hernandez as strikers.

What we still need to add though is another two midfielders including a dmf and another defender

Would love to poach isco or gaitan for cheap but probably won't happen

 

[Kompany]

Gomez plays for Bayern who've averaged 3 goals per game in the Bundesliga this season. Atletico hasn't even managed 2 per game. That would help.

Don't believe everything you read.

I'll be horrified if we end up signing Lewandowski.

 

[Thistle]

Yes this would be truly awful

 

[Stratton_Gun]

Based on what?

Gomez has been doing it for longer, has one of it not the best minutes per goal ratio in Europe and would cost less
