I did see that Roman has apperently ok’d a move for Icardi. Who knows if true or not but 100 for Icardi in this market is as good as it’s gonna get price wise.
His stats this season are pretty beat / in line with SadBoi Alvaro's. But hey, if he WANTS to be here unlike, idk, EVERY BIG MONEY STRIKER SIGNING WE'VE MADE, it's cool with me.
If it's a loan what is there to lose at this point tbh. And given our 30+ policy of 1 year contracts what longer term deal would we even offer? Would far prefer another argentinian striker based in Milan...
He’s old, fat, moving to a new league and with numbers trending significantly down. Unless it’s a risk free six month loan, this is a terrible move. I hope the people who made the fairly forward thinking Pulisic move don’t then do this.
Closing in on Higuain or is that Icardi or is that Andre Silva? We did sign Torres in the transfer window once, I hope this is not more of the same. Higuain is over age surely? I mean isn't that the reason we are ditching Fabregas? How strict is this one year rule anyways and will it always make sense? Moses, Drinkwater and Cahill all had a tour of Fulham with a view of joining the Tinkerman.
Agreed. It is not the move we need imho. The most important transfer market move for us is to secure Eden Hazard and that means paying him vast sums of money, but also bringing in players for him to play with. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/mauro-icardi-transfer-chelsea-boosted-13832615
I'm two months older than him and I'm probably in better shape he is. Maybe i could do better up front.
If we could just sign someone who can score some goals, I don't really care who we sell or buy this window, just someone to get some goals....
Jorjinho setting records!! 1896 passes with zero assists in the PL. Seriously if all he's good for is playing keep away from the opposition, isnt that part of the reason we've been having a lousy attack transition? It's like letting Shaq shoot a 3 pointer....let him have the ball up there cause he's not a threat
please come get him. signed, milan fans. fwiw, he's on a weird loan to milan now. something like an 18M loan with an option to buy this summer for 60M. i'm not sure on the option amount. after watching him for the first half of the season, i'd rather see cutrone every week at this point.
Atl Madrid inquiring about a loan move for Morata with a possible permanent move after. Crazy seeing two teams wanting him...if actually true.
It's been reported that there are a lot of teams after Morata. AC Milan, Sevilla, Munich, Atletico, and a couple more. It will cost about a million per month to bring him on board, so there aren't too many places he can go.
Damn didn't realize he was at such a salary. Is Kalou available.... Feel like he can do better for us lol
I think it’s one of those things where teams think, “Sure, he’s struggling but he just needs a change of scenery. We know just how to make him successful. It’ll be different here.” I know everyone is down on Higuain, but if the option is stand pat or Higuain, I’d rather have Higuain. It’d likely be a short term solution, and if Arsenal make a run and MU figure themselves out, we may struggle to hold onto fourth. Declining goals are still goals. Of course, if there are other options out there, let’s get them.
Reading have signed Chelsea midfielder Lewis Baker on a six-month loan deal. Cesc Fabregas has agreed a contract to join Monaco, but the deal will not go through until Chelsea sign a replacement. Neymar spotted on Roman's yacht. Apparently.
Icardi talk. Well, there is some smoke and there might be a fire. Or a new pope. That Mrs.Icardi eh? She seems like a piece of work. Icardi seems a little nasty, very aggressive and quite frankly not a very pleasant chap. And that, that is exactly what this team needs.
