Transfer Tweets - Summer 2017 | Keep it on topic

I really don't understand people here being angry for preferring Fabinho over Matic. People have their own opinions, deal with it, live with it, if they build their opinion on Fabino over one match or thirty that's their own problem. For me I made my opinion over 10 matches. In 8 of them he was the better midfielder from both sides. He is fast, very quick feet, good long and short ball, good tackler, and he reads the game well, and he is 23 with very good room for improvement. I dont care if Matic won the league. It's not like he won it by himself. He was part of the team that won, and he was not essential in it.

I agree with everything you say up until the bold bit. He was fairly important. He played 36 matches, man of the match 6 times and had an average rating of 7.50.

He's not a goal machine, but he's a CDM, so not expected.
 
Guys there's a Matic thread and there's a Donnaruma thread, please give the mods a break and stay on topic. This is the Transfer Tweets thread.
 
How many wingers do they need? Di Maria, Draxler, Lucas and the young Portuguese from Benfica and Jese.
Probably the Pep approach to football management. Buy a hoard of attacking players and be proclaimed a managerial genius. :)
 
Don't see them on the blacklist, but they should be banned after fabricating the Bernardeschi story.

Yep I saw the discussion here about this story after I copied the tweet here. I'll unfollow them once and for all anyway since I can't trust them anymore if they fabricated this story from themselves.
 
Calciomercatto confirm that Alex Sandro will be going to Chelsea. I cant post link due to not being a full member.
 
What happened here? Di Marzio says we want Fabinho.. A day later, Ogden says we are close to Matic..
And the caf is freaking out? Surely Di Marzio is more reliable than Ogden.

Maybe we want both..
Would love that.
 
Pickford cost 30 million. A high fee for a player like sandro doesnt even make me bat an eyelid anymore
 


Sigh...First it was Chairmen/Owners now it's agents who seem to crave a bit of celebrity status who's next the referees?...You know what, football was actually a much better game when people talked more about the 22 players on the pitch then all this drama off it. As good as social media has been for somethings one of the worst things is that people like him have a platform. Just had a look at his profile, the guy has over 75,000 followers ffs. 75,000 followers for an agent - it's ridiculous.
 
According to whoscored Bernardeschi has played most of his games through the middle?
His positioning is like Ozil (earlier in his career to be precise), playing central but from time to time deployed wide as wing playmaker. I think we're just posturing waiting till the 30th to pressure Inter Milan. 2 different profiles of player. While I rate Bernardeschi highly, I don't think his profile is what we need. We need a winger than a player who like to drift to central area.
 
Well looks like this summer Mourinho is assembling a squad full of players the caf majority don't want :lol:
:lol:
Matic is not that bad so the people are crying this much.

Actually he's not bad at all.
Yes. People failed to recognize that Chelsea was extremely stable during last season when Matic was in good form. Once his form was off, or Conte tried to alienate him, Chelsea midfield lost that stability. Kante may add the energy & bite, but Matic IMO was the key for their midfield stability. Not bad at all.

And I prefer Fabinho if we only sign one for DM position; NOR believe in British news outlet.
 
This is honestly the worst transfer window ever.

I hope something happens this week.

Not worst but looks like there is big chance we will fail badly. Griez was the big deal of the summer but it collapsed. Silva chose City and now we are rumoured only to average players, Chelsea and Real rejects/bench guys. We should sign players our opponents wants, not which they want to sell.

Would love him here. Not in the best of form from what he showed about 2-3 seasons back but still a massive improvement from what we have.
 
So is it the showdown of the century between Di Marzio and Ogden? :lol:

Absolutely no clue whats going on with our transfers this summer!
 
Jesus reading over this thread I'm glad I left when the Morata rumours slowed down, hope we actually do something
