yeah Alexis would be great. A bit older but last year of contract so you could get a reasonable price for him.

Eriksen would probably cost less than 1/2 of what Countinho would .... is there really that much of a gap between the two?

eriksen wouldnt play over sergi roberto and rafinha and so on. coutinho would play every week and be pretty good at it.

+1 on Phil. Unfortunately they do. Because he's good.

Coutinho is hilariously overrated which is standard for PLOP fans, Barca will be in for a massive disappointment if they think he's even close to Neymar. If they had any sense they should put the 100m towards Hazard.

Eriksen would be great a Barca, at least I think so anyway.

No he's not. Messi is quite handy when he goes back.

It's close but, ignoring market value, I'd probably rather lose Alli than Eriksen.

I think Eriksen is more important to the way Spurs play.

I agree but mainly because I'm already resigned to losing Alli at some point in the next 2-3 years

Yeah Dele gets ****ing results, but he does drift in and out and isn't going to really control a game. I'm not sure how he does in a really possession-oriented team. I actually don't think he'll fit that well at most of the elite clubs until (if) he develops further, besides whatever club mourinho is out since they won't have any semblance of tactics anyway.

Still very early to judge players and teams, but you could already see it from the last season we were about to f'ck up by letting Pepe go and then not going after someone like Bonucci. One of them could have been very useful for a year or two.

Bale is beyond pathetic, I would actually pay money to know the reason he's still a RM player, while we can easily hustle some team into paying us 100m for him. We won the double without him, we play way better without him, he's complete and utter trash. Makes you appreciate CR7 even more when you see what Benzema and Bale do without him.

We all are but at least we don't have to watch the worlds worst footy with him on any longer

Rumored to be going to the same Turkish team Fernando is linked with. What a world. Fellaids and Fernando holding down the midfield

There is now room for one massive ****house in their squad to replace him with. Hopefully they'll sign Carroll.

Few places reporting the Matic deal as done and announced soon. Fellaini looks to be on his way but not sure how much we can recoup selling to Turkey.
