General Transfer Rumour Discussion Thread

The clips I have seen of Lucumi make him look more like a quick attacking wide player who looks comfortable shooting off of either foot.

I don't know about Rode, but from what I've read, Guardiola doesn't want to sell him. Our interest in German's never seems to bring much joy atm.

probably because of what happened with Holtby
 
This is a good read

8 times Cheatski hijacked deals.
Read the one about Robben on page 2... his own father said he would never sign for Chelsea over his dead body, right before he went there... just shows that nobody knows what the hell will happen in football deals.
Also read the Mo Salah one... Liverpool had been in negotations for 2.5 months when Cheatski just waltzed in and took him.
 
Pedro: "[Mourinho] is one of the main reasons why I’m here. He phoned me a few times and said he needed me to make the team stronger."

Pedro 21 million
Cuadrado 27 million
Salah 11 million
Willian 32 million

What he actually meant was preventing others from strengthening.
 
What does everyone think about bolasie from palace? Talkbrick were on about him today and said he wouldnt make it here as he was too inconsistent. I hate agreeing with adrian durham, but I only saw him destroy us once, so I went looking for a youtube video. OH MY DAYS. We already have a 1 in 10 player in townsend - if this guy does things from this video one in 10, I want him. Screw every other highlights video. This is the best. If anything screamed spurs player, it's this. I'm going to watch it again. It's that awesome.

Premier league proven, probably available with some levy magic for 12m, 26 so some resale if it doesn't work out in 2 years, probably isnt on that much at palace

 
Palace will want more than 12 million and I'm not sure he's that much of an upgrade on Lamela or Townsend. He holds it up well which we always need. Good but not good enough is my feeling.

Which could explain why he's been a permanent fixture in the transfer gossip columns all summer, despite no clubs actually being interested (as per Pardew's 'not a single phone call or bid')

No, but would we sell them fazio unless we got something in return? We don't really need to sell him.

Some sick skills would be easily as good as what we got, a swap for Townsend would be lovely probably cost about 20 odd mils though

Unless poch doesn't want him?

Ossie talked about how much Poch wanted Fazio early last season, IIRC. Granted, I was always sceptical of the likelihood of that given that he evidently wasn't the first or second choice on our list (Musacchio, Moreno and Lovren were all probably higher on that one), but I don't think Fazio was unwanted in the same way that Stambo evidently was.

I really dont think 12m would get him and I'm not sure how much more he is worth.... But would 've fun to watch him for us. What's his stats like? Pass completion, crosses? Chances created? Shot accuracy?
