Good call. No more overpaying for players than selling them for anything. Everton has tons of money now plus they're in dire need for a quality CMF/DMF and they won't find anyone better in January than Schneiderlin.
China will make it difficult for European clubs to sign South American talents. Can see them having a top league within 10 years.
Wasn't this also the worry when Japan created their super league? Or J-league.China will make it difficult for European clubs to sign South American talents. Can see them having a top league within 10 years.
He's 27 and we paid £23m for him. I say take the £19m and run with it.
Yeah I know, I'm just chuckling at it being common knowledge Mourinho is selling him, common knowledge we rejected £19m so Joyce has provided us with the really useful information that we want £20m or more.
Oh I see. €20m for Witsel who's only got 6 months left on his contract. Only in China I guess. When he moved to Zenit, you already knew he was more interested in money than any career based aspirations.
Yeah but Witsel is fundamentally crapWe just paid £27m for a player with 12 months left.
Also, City bought De Jong from Hamburg for about £19m with 6 months left.
I like the stance on not selling players for peanuts, but with someone like Schneiderlin, who has been barely passable as a Premier League player for some time, it's a risky game!
Rumours that Zenit were prepared to accept 6 mil from Juve.We just paid £27m for a player with 12 months left.

well, I don´t see Sevilla paying for Banega, but the one of Jovetic seems realistic, and Jesé to Roma too.tbf, every single one of those @carvajal looks like bullshit.

We seem pretty light in midfield. If we sell him surely we will bring in cover?
Against Reading I would want Carrick, Herrera and Pogba rested but what do we have? Fellaini, Blind, Schweinsteiger and maybe Fosu-Mensah?
ah ok, I didn´t catch it , I will continue then, this thread needs some movementIt's alright, I was only WUMing you
Didn't Diego Forlan prefer tennis, but was shite at it?I think Batistuta hated it too just a "job" to him.. And Christian Vieri preferred Cricket.

Good signing. One of the best talents in the Belgian league this season.
Defensive/central midfielder. I wouldn't exactly say a 'Kante replacement' or anything but he's very mobile for his size and he cleans up in midfield well. Like almost everyone at Genk, he's been far better in Europa than domestically, and his stats in it show him to be a great all-action midfielder. Scores the occasional rocket of a longshot too.What position and style of player is he?

Can never be 100% sure players like him will be a success story, but should he succeed I could see him doing a lesser standard Gueye/Kante type of job for Leicester. That, or he could end up a bit like Amartey, who was bought in to do a similar job but hasn't really taken to the league yet and looks a bit underwhelming at the best of times.
