For the rumored price we could buy Lemar or Carrasco.
The ones that was posted here seem to rate him very highly.
There were plenty of others that didn't, just read back through the thread.
The latter isn't available and has a £87m buyout clause. So good luck with that.
Paying that much for Griezmann is fair enough. But Atletico Madrid are not a tin pot club that are going to let players go cheaply or without a fight.
Would be robbery if we pay more than 35 million euro imo, even that seems steep. Not totally against the signing though but there are other players I'd much prefer.
I read his thread on forza inter and most fans agree that only reason they should sell him is because they need the money and ideally they need to sell candreva.
If you are mentioning the guy who mentioned he is the next goran pandev then he was called out on it there itself.
David Silva signed when he was 24 in 2010. Thats 7 years of a top player, possibly one of the best in the world in his position and he still has a few years in him. He also cost City £24m. A bargain even in 2010.
Perisic, if the rumours are true, will sign for close to £40m. He is 28 years old, and naturally in a 2 or 3 years, will be past his best and we'll have to start looking for another replacement again. While Bernardo Silva (22 now) will be approaching his peak.
I understand you are saying we shouldn't always believe the statistics, but you only take that risk when the price and age are on your side. In this case they aren't. Its just another example of UTD over paying for average players.
Harrop and Mitchell haven't even proved that they can be so much as 'average' premier league players though.
If he couldn't get past Kuba that's condemnation in itself, as both had the small relative skill sets.
He is talking about Bernardo, not David.
Seems to be a consistent, reliable honest winger who will give us a further much needed injection of pace and width.
We've been downright poor at using width this season simply because we don't have the players that will do what this guy does.
I'm pleased to see Mourinho has a very good plan in place, he clearly wants to change our style of play and formation, which is good.
Excited to see how he lines up our strongest side next season with these 4 additions

I meant B.Silva, not David.
Why are we so obsessed with age ? We signed RVP when he was 29 years old and gave us one good season from 3 does that makes him terrible signing ? Definitely not. His only good season with us is far more important than 10 seasons with a young talent IMO.
If Perisic becomes a part of a league winning team next season, I won't care if he doesn't give us anything else.
Do you guys think Martial will be gone if Jose is in for Perisic?
Confusion between the two is going to happen a lot next season
Bernardo is too long to write.I'll say young Silva and old Silva then.
Nope. Will be a sub, though.
He's just not the LW Jose wants in 4-2-3-1 and that has nothing to do with defensive duties if you think that what I meant.
Some thoughts from Forza Inter forums:
Sounds like a Jose player alright. Lets see him in a United shirt and see how he does before criticising Jose and Perisic.

You're overreacting. He has done much more than that and certainly is a very talented and decesive player, that will be very fecking useful to a team that is not in shambles.
People here expect him to do what? He's not Messi. Let me put this way: in a situation where we would've been able to buy 20 players and revamp the whole team, Perisic one of the few players that could've easily stayed and kept very very useful.

I'm not impressed by perisic and think we can do better. I fear for you if such a post troubles your sanity.
I have read through the thread. There are people not happy with him but that's mainly to do with the whole Inter team. 95% agree that he's a great player.
Exactly. He isn't mufc quality, especially for that price.
I don't think Martial will be ok to back Perisic.
Blaming the team for his poor final ball and crappy pass percentage is pretty ridiculous, Inter are a crap team, for them he might be as good as it gets.
Buying young quality means you don't need to worry about a certain position for many years. Rooney for example, was our main striker for a long time, we never even thought about another striker. It also means if you buy young, players have a long time to build an understanding with each other. Our best team from the late 90s and early 2000s was built on a core group of players who grew up together.
Perisic will come and be gone in a few years and it all starts again. I think City are playing the transfer game much better than we are in my opinion. Guardiola is thinking long term, where as Jose wants to do a smash and grab, get all the glory, then leave in a few years for someone else to clean up the mess.
All this is before we even start talking about why we always pay 30-50% more on players. If Perisic went anywhere else I promise you Inter wouldn't get a penny over 30m euros.
We have Rashford, Martial, Bailly and Pogba who are all young and will give some years coming. We don't need any more young talents that are still developing for years before they deliver, especially not at our current state.
We need players who are already in their peak, players who are going to perform immediately. That means signing players at the age of 25-28 years this market, not under 24 or above 30 for me.
With Rashford and Martial already present as Young talents in our forward, why do we need more inconsistent young talents ?
Even I wont be ok on his behalf and I am not a fan of Martial
He will play a lot considering us playing on multiple trophies. He should be OK.
You sign great players at 25-28yr e.g. Griezmann and not overpay 2x for an average player that was not even the best player on a crappy midtable Inter team. Whats next - 100m for Barkley?
Look, I didn't watch Perisic at all except for some videos on YouTube so I don't really know much of him. I'm talking about the obsession with young age in general, not just in this case.
And who said Perisic will prevent Griezmann from coming ?
Why do you assume young equals inconsistent or unable to perform immediately? De Bruyne, Eriksen, Hazard, all purchased young, all made almost immediate impacts and are as good as any player in their late 20s.
If you spend wisely, you reap the rewards for a long time. City's new signing Jesus looks a great signing and is only 20. We need to stop burning money and build solid foundations for the next decade. No more temporary fixes.
I'd rather call them BS and DS.Confusion between the two is going to happen a lot next season
I'll say young Silva and old Silva then.
Nah, that won't work (Bullshit and Dipshit, as it turns out).
BSilva and DSilva then.
I don't think this paints the right picture. Guardiola and Txiki are definitely thinking long-term, but I don't think Jose's looking for a smash and grab. This the role that Jose has been looking for his entire life...freedom and total control like he had at Inter at a club with financial strength and visibility like he had at Real. His number one priority is to succeed in the league or CL ASAP to help solidify his position here.
"Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes."
Yes, some young talents can perform immediately, some aren't. IMO it's a total gamble to build the full team on young talents as you will get both of these types. You need to have both good young talents and players at their prime to help these talents. You can't build a team of over 30 player but you can't also on 20 players, unless you are a club with zero pressure on it as Monaco.
We have some young talents already in the team so why add more ? We should be gunning for players at their prime already. Can't see the benefit of adding more youngsters to Rashford ,Martial and Pogba as if they aren't enough, especially in the current state of the club, which demands immediate success and pressure is everywhere on the manager and the team.
If I'm advising Martial , I would convince him to leave. Clearly, Mou does not rate him much and 2-3 years of being a sub player would kill him. Jose may leave in 3 years, Martial is 25 and nothing to show for.
Is there any other reliable source apart from PremiumSportHD which has confirmed this story citing its own sources?
I feel this is all just a rumor, maybe spread by Inter as they need to offload him.

Sky sports reported it.
Did they quote their own sources or just the one from Italy? I am asking as it is common practice for SS to jump on any rumor.
Here's the article from their site :

Maybe the plan is to convert him into a leftback and he's our second choice target after Mendy? (who seems to be going to City)
