Didn't they get him from Chelsea and then not bother to play him?
Yeah, he is very highly rated. We wanted him too when they signed him. He played in the league cup for them this season.

Yes, we´ll have a summer of many changes. Let's see if we find some bargain like Kroos a few years ago, or some new Modric.
A new Pepe is essential + the new signings taking a step forward.
It will not be easy to sign the galáctico, but I think we still have some appeal
Four words: Moyes, Gold and Sullivan.
Moyes wants money for new players, Gold & Sullivan want to sell before buying so Moyes gave go ahead to sell Oxford.
They're not that bright. Probably reckon they won't play Oxford so may as well sell him now to bring some money in.It always surprises me when people who have made money their whole lives, make decisions for financial reasons that don't seem very prudent. They must know more about money than me.....so why is flogging off their youngsters on the cheap the 'smart' move?
It was Lady Apprentice who's pally with the governmentThey're not that bright. Probably reckon they won't play Oxford so may as well sell him now to bring some money in.
Still annoys me they got a stadium for pretty much nothing just because they're pally with the government.
Unless we can buy someone absolutely outstanding who will make a difference for us over the course of years rather than the remaining months of the season, we should steer clear in Jan. The league is gone, not many top players aren’t cup tied and winning the CL is extraordinarily difficult at the best of times. Far better to have a real go early in the summer and try to let those players bed in during the pre-season.
Other rumours are Gladbach need to keep their powder dry, cause they´ll be trying to buy Dzeko. As good a prospect as Oxford is, if Gladbach could get Dzeko it would be like upgrading from a bicycle without wheels to a Ferrrari.
Why would Roma want to sell him? And can Gladbach even afford him?
Yeah, Gladbach would be more likely to sign someone from the SSL like they did with Xhaka, Zakaria and Elvedi.Yeah that sounds bizarre, frankly. Where are those 'rumours' from?
Roma are doing well, and Dzeko is doing great for them, no?
Clearly he's out of Gladbach's league both financially and from a footballing standpoint.
Market makes the price?Not what he said when we signed Pogba

Nothing's impossible, of course. But Gladbach sounds like an odd choice to sell to if you want to 'cash in'.Maybe Roma want to cash in on a 31 year old striker? I don´t know. Seems there is not much to it anyway just like the RBL transfer of Oxford.

@Giggsyking I deleted that second tweet because the report they're talking about is from The Sun and the journalist who wrote it makes up bullshit like the following:
Yeah, they sometimes have their own stuff but at others they're a news aggregator and post stuff from mostly unreliable sources like the The Sun article.I didnt know MEN quotes from the sun. Thank you for your feedback.
Sessegnon to Southampton would be a good move for both player and club. He'd get the step up in quality and still be guaranteed plenty of playing time.
You're just two quality fullbacks, a goalkeeper and another midfielder away from a quality team. If you can manage to get both Lemar and Goretzka that'd be your midfield sorted.This basically means we will be paying about 50+ million for him in 2 years time. Maybe more. Why not pay half and try to get him now?
The signing of Neymar would be a bomb, and I do not see it so crazy, but It would not make sense to escape from Messi to fall into Cristiano's garden, and I really do not see him leaving this summer.How much would you love it if Florentino moved Benzema, Bale and Ronaldo on and brought in Neymar and Kane? Along with Asensio, Isco, Kovacic and Casemiro your midfield and attack would be sorted for another 7-8 years.
Not that something as crazy as that is going to happen though. In a Football Manager world maybe.

Might as well hand over half the VVD cash. Liverpool always seem to do stupidly well when selling their players.
Oh yeah I'd prefer United to sign him but, for the player it'd make a lot of sense to step up to a mid level prem club first.
Wait a minute who does he support?
Means no transfers in January.
