Elite is level 1

World class is level 2

Giroud is level 3

Welbeck

Potential though. Wenger loves his jam tomorrow. See: Walcott, T.

I would have snapped bought Welbeck to Spurs for 14/16m. Arse did get a good deal, but let's not kid ourselves that he will turn into a monster.

I agree, should have been a no-brainer at that price. If Giroud hadn't got injured...

Is that the guy from Storage Hunters UK?



Would have to be a Gooner, wouldn't he...

morata may be worth a gamble

Lukaku must be worth a punt. If nothing else he will just pick up 3 defenders and move them out of the way while someone runs into the goal...

Fekir should be available for 30-40 M€ i guess, he's back to training since 3 weeks but Lyon want 0 risk so they stuck with their schedule(he'll also miss next game due to synthetic pitch), if he has a good next 2 months he's probably going to the euro and his price will probly go up a fair amount.

Bar MSN and Cron he's my #1 choice for us.

Pounds? I think we'd certainly sell for 65. Only problem is we'd need to spend most of it because just paying taxes on it seems dumb.
But then again our management is stubborn and he's under contract until 2020 so might as well just take another year and sell then. With the Euros it's probably a bit more valuable to have an African guy up front because he'll be fresher at the start of next season.

Götze return seems somewhat likely (for the supposed 20 million we should snap call). I think Götze has good leverage with Bayern as he could just play out his contract and move on a free. I don't think even riding the bench a bit is a problem with the Euros to show some stuff (far from a lock he'll play much though).
So if he prefers us us that's a pretty good scenario. Bayern probably wouldn't mind getting his contract off the books and get some money. They could certainly get more from other clubs though + if I were Bayern I would prefer to sell to someone else.
Wondering why no PL clubs outside the obvious Pool have been mentioned so far.

you don't really need anyone, just practice overlap timing/movement from your fb's and stop playing ramsey until he stops trying to be scorepoint-hero and drops in the fill the space vacated. welbeck and sanchez as a pressing duo would be fairly sick too if arsenal wants to do 15 mins of forward pressing at the start of every half.

obv not sure your ridiculously paid dino coach can do it, actually im pretty sure lolwenger can't

im sure barca et al will be quaking in their boots if arsenal get their fb overlapping patterns right

well msn are all like top 10 all time so no, but should able to batter mid-budget blitw also-runs and like, get more points than lcfc

also better for bellerin and barca if his development isnt just ruined like cesc's due to lolwenger being stuck in 2006

like i said. özil/sanchez/bellerin staying +striker (new cb instead of Merte) and I'll be randymarshjizzed.jpg

One player I've been half following this year is hakim ziyech. He has other worldly numbers and hasn't been significantly over performing with regards to conversion rates. He does suffer from shooting from range a bit too much as well as lol eredivise defending (lack there of). Someone like him would be a great gamble for a mid table side trying to push for Europe spots.

Bournemouth might be a good destination. A front 4 of Ritchie gradel ziyech and Wilson could be damn good.

other worldly numbers? 15 goals/10a in eredivise is like 1g/1a in the premier league

I mean non score point numbers. Shot contribution, dribbles, tackles, interceptions etc. But Ya likely inflated due to eredivise (which I stated)

the sun reckons real madrid are gonna go after courtois. £75m.

too ******ed to make up so must be true

10m more than Suarez? Seems legit

Paul Joyce of The Express saying that Gotze wants to join Pool.

Did Mr Joyce manage to include the phrase "The People's Princess" in the article?

Doesn't really work with Ozil jogging around in the centre circle waiting for them to win the ball.

We are meant to have signed Toni Martinez, who is some sort of yoof from Barcelona. At first I thought that I had read that we signed Tony Martin, but that would be silly as he is too old and probably still in jail, although judging by what happened with those travelling folk he has an accurate shot on him.

Mario Götze has his heart set on a move to Liverpool in the summer. A fee of around £20m is expected. (Tony Barrett)
