Those are just a few off the top of my head. No telling whether Mou actually requested any of these.

But still, Douglas Costa would be ideal.

We need a DoF. EdBot 2000 cant make the intellectual leap between perisic and LIKE perisic.
 
Feck Inter, simply move on to the next "target" if any.
I'm finding it very hard to believe a 40m bid getting rejected for a player who's not sought after by other clubs.
Utd are the ONLY team that are after him.

We should do what Arsenal always does, offer them 40,000,001m

In his last 28 national appearances he has 15 goals. Was also Croatia's top scorer in 2016 EURO qualifying. Played well in the finals. WhoScored gave him a 7.84 rating, the same as Griezmann.

2014 World Cup he was ranked as the second-best performing player of the group stage by FIFA. So that's TWO International tournaments he has performed at.

16 goals, 16 assists in 57 games at national level. He started to kick on 2014 onwards. The 26 games prior he had only 1 goal.

11 goals and 8 assists in an unstable club/team last year. Salah had 15 goals and 11 assists in a much more stable team who played better football which suited him. Some of you are claiming Salah is the much better player which is wide of the mark, and the fact that he failed under a Mourinho system before should at the very least tell you that different wingers are suited to different systems.

Some drivel in here about fecking Arnautovic being better than Perisic. Seriously what the feck?

He is clearly a good player, all this guff about him being shite is becoming increasingly annoying to read. Perisic would be joining a BETTER team with a system that suits him and WILL produce.

Also the fact that Inter are actively rejecting £40 million for a 28 year old says something. They want to keep him for a reason.

Nice response. Just ignore the rest of the post.

Maybe not, cause he lacks the physique for that, but Iniesta level, I think potentially yes.

Insista didn't win ballon d'or. He's saying Silva is potential ballon d'or, do you know what that means ? That he's Messi and Ronaldo level.

That's exactly why I said Iniesta, a great player who never won it. An not every coming Ballon d'Or are going to be Ronaldo or Messi like. I mean, not so long ago Michael Owen won it.
 
PLEASE FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO SIGN AND DON"T WASTE MONEY ON A SOON TO BE 29 YEAR OLD WHO IS NOT THAT GOOD TO BEGIN WITH.

Needing two strikers, maybe overpaying for an old style winger is not the worst of our problems.

So if I also said that Martial is a potential balon dor winner an also saying that he is on Messi and Ronaldo's level? Do you know what that means? Please do tell.

Owen winning it has been long ago. Now to win it you need insane goal scoring record like that of Messi and Ronaldo. If both step back, the next candidates will be the likes of Neymar

He's a very good player but what he said is the definition of overrating.
 
If only we had a list of 3 or 4 per position to move on to. Ah well as you were.

The point is, we still don't know how good he's going to be. You're probably underrating the future Bernardo Silva.

Martial can only dream of being a candidate for that prize, just dreaming.

And yes it's overrating

And you and him are probably overrating the guy's future. Can go both ways.

He's going to be like the older Silva and gonna serve them very well but things about winning Ballon D'Or he'll need to score +40 goals each season to start dreaming about.

Ok, ok. But you're basically thinking the Messi/Ronaldo era is going to keep on running when those two hang their boots.

I said when these step down, the next candidates will be like Neymar, not anyone currently in the premier league.

How does this even make sense? We are overrating him, but then it can go both ways, but then he is going to be like Silva because you have a crystal ball. And he'll need to start scoring 40+ goals each season to win a balon dor?

Wonderful.

Anyways, this is a Perisic thread and I'm not interested in this discussion unless tbh.

Your problem is missing the difference between being a good player and being a ballon d'or contender.
 
40m is too much for a player his age (28), but transfer prices have since over-inflated, 30m is like the norm price for "average" players nowadays.

Inter need to find a longer term option if they want to rise back to top level and keeping an unhappy player wanting to leave can be harmful.

Any other good alternative old left winger? Martial is here to stay and bloom.

Nah, this guy gets the job done and Martial grows up in the meantime.

The longer it goes, the more I am convinced that Perisic isn't the right signing.

Serie A right now is in my opinion below EPL, La Liga and Bundes Liga. They are tier 2.5 league or not much different with Ligue 1 level now, and with the fact that UEFA only allow them to register 3 clubs in UCL I don't think I am wrong judging Serie A.

And his stats last season is still worse than Mkhy's stats in his last season with Dortmund which is in better league. He will need to make a huge step up if we are expecting him to be our main left winger. And judging by his stats, he's probably on the same level or littler higher with Arnautovic.

And with the amount of money that Inter is asking, especially for his age he needs to step up his level to a top class player which I have doubt.

In fact would dries mertens not be a far better shout? He's a year older but would instantly improve us and surely wouldn't cost more then £50m? Just a far better option in my opinion and far more productive, if we're signing an older player lets make sure they are top top class.

Mertens was another "average" winger before this season, and true he has better stats but he plays more as striker for Napoli after the departure of Higuain.

Salah had better stats too but I think again he played more centrally rather than keeping the width type of player.

United have plenty of those type of players and arguably better too in the likes of Mata, Micky. I think in Perisic case, it is about his profile or style of play where he would be happy to just stay wide and provide width especially on the left side where last season it was almost non existent. He is two footed, pacey, strong and able to play on both flanks.

Martial could potentially be the better player but at the moment, he is more of the modern type of winger that likes to cut in and shoot.
 
Here are Perisic's stats in Italy and Germany.
Dortmund, 64 games, 12 goals in all competitions.
Wolfsburg, 88 games, 21 goals in all competitions.
Inter, 79 games, 20 goals in all competitions.

Impressed?

That's right, he will average a goal in every 400 minutes of play or so.
