News: Teams With Midfielders - The Other Teams Thread [R]

Good thing we didn't sign Haaland. I don't think he'd make it here...

 

Dani Olmo off to RBL. Another great signing for that team. There were weak reports linking us to him he's a player we really should have been in for. €35mil for a player of his potential is a good deal for RBL.

Dani Olmo to RB Leipzig: an intelligent move that strikes a balance between expectation and a pathway.

He'll work within an ultra-competitive set-up and compete to break into a very good team, whilst developing under an extraordinary coach. Big opportunity with big upside. pic.twitter.com/idsCtQv0IQ

We will see with ceballos but arteta clearly doesn’t rate him currently otherwise he’d be in

maybe he plays Monday night? I would like to see a 433 and rather he plays 8 than 10

 

Newcastle linked to potential takeover by Saudi Family MBS.. Just rumors

 

Yep. Hey, but at least we held firm to our principles of sound cash management, right?

As long as the Glazers feel no financial pain from midtable status, midtable status it shall be.

Pretty obvious that the 'punishment' they received for breaking FFP regulations was nothing more than a slap on the wrist. And they really should be hit with something way more meaningful and impactful. This is kind of flagrant.

 

The issue with ffp is it gives u guys a huge advantage

but sugar daddies are screwing up the game too

it’s a lose lose situation imo

 

Cengiz Under has been very good so far in the first half of the Rome derby. He looks like an intriguing alternative to Sancho worth considering if we can't get him in the summer.
Think he's been available too by Roma for some reason.

 

Inter have drawn 3 on trot but Juve lost to Napoli 2-1 and only lead by 3 points. Wouldnt mind inter upsetting Juve but ita still unlikely.

 

Potential takeover of Newcastle by the saudis are at an advanced stage, If it happens the competition for top 4 will rife further..

Tottenham are one step away from signing Steven Bergwjin. Last details to be completed between Spurs and PSV on the final fee (€31M) and then... here we go! ⚪️

Talks ongoing with AC Milan for Krzysztof Piatek (loan + buy option) but no agreement yet. ➖ #THFC #Tottenham #Spurs

— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) January 28, 2020

Could be argued that he (Bergwijn) may not be Spurs's most pressing need (have serious issues at the back). Still a very good acquisition for them nonetheless.
And with Kane out and the need for a 9 pretty clear, Piatek on a loan with an option to buy is not a bad move either.

 

Spurs have signed Lo Celso on a permanent deal.

Not a bad window at all for Tottenham after all..

 

Eveeton have rejected a €100 million / £ 85 million offer from barcelona for Richarlison..With Suarez out for remainder season the moves make sense. Suarez is 33 so Richarlison will be long term replacement.

Move announcement are coming fast and furious now: Piatek poised for a transfer to Hertha Berlin. Arsenal have finally sealed Pablo Mari from Flamengo and Soton have secured Kyle Walker-Peters from Spurs on loan for the remainder of the season.

 

It doesnt make sense that Everton turned this down.

 

It obviously speaks to the massive spending power Prem clubs have nowadays. Not to mention, Richarlison is hot prospect still: he's just 22 and it stands to reason he could very much become a big deal in short order.

 

Sander Berge could be one to keep an eye on at Sheffield

 

Robinson from Wigan to AC Milan, here we go! Total agreement reached for the left back 🔴⚫️ #ACMilan #transfers

— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) January 30, 2020

Rodriguez is off to PSV as well, so he might get some chances there: not sure who else is competing for the LB spot (they have Laxalt but he's out on loan) or if they're going to bring in anyone else.
Great opportunity for the kid and hope he makes the most of it.

 

Theo Hernandez. I have not watched, but apparently he's been the only bright spot for a dour Milan side.

One can only hope that somehow Robinson gets some tutelage from the great Maldini.
