    Fair enough but would you take into consideration his production for the NT?

    I saw that its good and under Bielsa he should do well but IMO hes worth like 5-6 m.

    Can't disagree with that.

    So you read l'OM are actually trying to buy him outright and not just get him on loan?

    Bielsa said during his press conference today that he doesnt know when he'll be ready.

    we lost valbuena to lyon ... what a shame .. this club mishandling of players unbelievable ... we could have had gignac, ayew, cisse, and valbuena

    but to OM is too selfish

    Must find a place for Andonian. Take out Romao and put Tulioma there.

    Now we have a possible Thauvin-Cabella exchange. Someone said these are the 2 most mismanaged clubs in Europe and yeah I kinda agree.

    Cabella would come on loan with a 8m purchase option and Thauvin is sold for 17 m. OM actually wins this one as Thauvin isnt worth close to that amount. On the other hand changing half your team from year to year is still mismangemnt and not the recipe for success.

    After selling Imbula and Payet they still needed another big sale (Thauvin) to bring in more players ?o_O Again, what a horribly mismanaged club.

    'twas ever thus (even if you don't count kash carjack) here's an article I've already shared about l'auberge sardignole:
    http://www.cahiersdufootball.net/article.php?id=2063

    119 players bought and sold in 5 years without any of them sticking.

    Same Belhanda who was too expensive for OL and cheap Marseille can afford him now ? I dont believe it.

    it's not just a question of cheap/expensive but reasonable and budget conscious. and having an option that seemed better value.

    and OM doesn't have a shirt for valbuena. it's retired.

    So a couple of stories:

    - seems we're close to securing Madrid's Lucas Silva, (another) CM.

    - Linked to Juve's Fernando Llorente, striker. Apparently Juve are after Lemina so a swap deal could be worked out, however, it is not yet know if Llorente is interested in a move to Marseille.

    (also, and this is speculation on my part: with Silva's arrival, that would be about 4-5 CMs, so maybe Lemina would be open to leaving.)

    - we've also signed City's Jason Denayer on loan, CB.

    Sparanga might play in the midfield. Baptise Aloe was loaned to Valenciennes.
