The lady on Rooney's right is a celiac and knows she shouldn't have had that bacon sandwich for breakfast but bacon is life and needs to be eaten with pappy white bread.
 
Doubt a third party is allowed to buyout the contract. The usual process is future clubs gives money to player who then buys out his contract. This usually has tax and legal issues.

Which deal is the precedent you are referencing?
The tax issues got sorted out when spain changed laws regarding that in 2016.
 
Well, he's overreacting a bit I can't think of any other realistic signing who would excite the fans as much as Pogba did. Only Griezmann. Not to mention the need of such a clinical player in front of goal.
 
Surely Olly can come up with some sort of muppet, mattress, griezmann gif combo to make me laugh...

No, the usual process is for the future club to go with the player at the LFP, the even more usual process is for the clause to be bypassed and both clubs agreeing on a transfer that matches the clause.

He could camp in the Bale transfer thread.
 
It's all linked.

Theatre of "dreams"

Jose football putting people to sleep

Griezmann declaring he's a mattress

Bale floating because of a mattress

We just need 1 more muppet mattress sacrificial post to fully awaken the transfer muppet monster
 
Jesus. Please tell me you're not serious?

Who is out there that would improve our attack enough (and is realistic) to make it an exciting summer ?

For me it were Silva and Griezmann. If neither of them will come idk who we could sign that could make this a good summer.
 
Soon it will only be one week until his future will be decided :devil:
That's what they all say. This being settled by the end of next week is too good to be true, we still need to go through around 27 stages of it's on and it's off before we get to a conclusion.

You said it would be "impossible to have a good transfer window".

Complete and utter hyperbole.
 
More twists, turns, tantrums and casualties than a rodeo. And the window isn't even open yet.

We can't have a good window unless we really sort out our attacking problems. Imo Grtiezmann and Silva were crucial for that, if neither will come, I don't see how we will be able to have a good window. Which other players do you think are realistic for us to sign and can sort out our problems ?

Morata,/Mandzukic/Dzeko/Icardi
James/Ozil
 
Morata is off to Milan, isn't he?
Not confirmed and doubt Milan have the money to buy him. They need a squad overhaul and FFP will limit what they can spend.

If he goes to Milan, that would likely be cos of his gf and shows he is really P-whipped. In italy, Napoli would be the only club I expect him to consider.

None of those would improve us enough. Morata and James are the only ones on that list I would want and I don't think they would improve us that much at all to be honest.

If that would be the quality of our signings I will not be expecting much improvement next season. 6th place here we come again.

What we need is first a very good DM that can liberate the attacking players, a big striker for hold up play and an AM to help with creativity and goals from the midfield. Excluding the DM, those players provide what we need to be title contenders.

Its not about just adding talented players but they also have to fit well into the scheme of the manager.

He'd be a great player to get as part of any potential DDG negotiations.
 
Have you watched Griezmann live Vato? I only watched one game at the Calderon and he wasn't involved much in that game
No, haven't attended an Atletico game yet. Every time I've seen him play against us he's been underwhelming.

I don't watch them often so no idea how he does against the rest.

No same I don't watch them that much. Decent goal scoring record though

There are more than two attack minded footballers out there. You're being a tad dramatic.

What we need is players who can create good chances and players who can finish those chances. We have neither atm.

  • Pogba is our only MF player who has the nesc creativity to create anything from midfield
  • We don't have players who can dribble past defenders to create spaces
  • We don't have wingers or fullbacks who can deliver a good cross
  • Rashford is our only striker who knows how to make intelligent runs and he is still very raw and still makes alot of bad decisions
  • We don't have anyone who is clinical in terms of scoring goals
Silva would have been excellent to open up defences as he can dribble amazingly well and can read the game like the best. He has the signs of an Ienesta type player all over him.
Griezmann is a player who is one of the best at making intelligent runs and he is super clincial in front off goal.

None of players you mentioned would provide enough of those things. James or Ozil aren't much of an upgrade on what we have with Mkhitaryan and Mata. In terms of the strikers, I really don't want us to sign an Ibra replacement who will force us to bench Rashford or play him from the wings, that simply doesn't work (this season has proven that). We need someone who can play with Rashford in a striker partnership or who can operate from outwide. Also important is that the player is clinical infront of goal because we seriously lack that atm. Apart from Morata none of the players you mentioned really fit that profile and Morata alone won't be enough to solve our attacking problems.

Take it easy, it's still early and the only event so far is City signing Silva. There are other players than him and Griez (the latter will come anyway) like Lukaku, Belotti, Kane?, Bale, many others

Sure but none are available because they are all playing at Barca/Real/Bayern/Juve/City/Chelsea etc

I'd love a player like Dybala or Neymar or Bale those players aren't on the market.

The only 2 I really see as big improvement to our attack are Griezmann and Silva and I forgot about Sanchez if he is leaving Arsenal, he is also in that category (but I doubt we are getting Sanchez).

Ousmane Dembele?

Mate, I am sure Jose has targets. I am quite keen on Lukaku. Personally think he is leaving Everton and coming here.

Imo we really don't need a player like that unless we are switching to a 4-4-2 and will be signing new wingers and fullbacks who can cross the ball. They would preform the same as Ibra has performed this season and for me it is clear that with the current group of players we have that sort of system just doesn't work anymore.

Imo we need a forward like Griezmann, Sanchez, Dybala, Neymar

Bale would fit that profile, he would be brilliant but I'don't think he is on the market and if he is he would be a major gamble because of all his injurries that never seem to stop.
