    I dont think we even look at players with a specific profile anymore. More of a case of "He looks good enough from what we have seen from a few tapes, we'll see how it pans out".

    Yeah, Flo loves a world cup for some weird reason. Like playing 10 or so games is any indication.

    I mean he is Spanish. And Liverpool, Arsenal and City have his position filled already on the long term, United will not spend that much on another project striker having Sesko and Hojlund, so that only leaves Chelsea and Newcastle with Spurs not having the financial power for that. Samu could be the perfect forward to move on from Vinicius and bring Mbappe back to the left. I don't think the problem is his agent or the percentage of player rights, its just that we're not interested once again in actual squad building.

    OK, yeah, very unrealistic. You need to look for connection points when you're thinking about a potential transfer.

    The player is linked to Tottenham and Bayern with good reason (aside from the agent being located in Munich himself) , his agent represents a good part of the team in London and Munich. A quick check throws up Tottenham already having reached out to Porto.

    The only significant player he seems to represent in Spain is Ter Stegen, but with them having hundreds of German players on call, it's natural.

    We also last dealt with Porto with James I believe.

    Until we built a rapport with the people involved the player will be long gone.

    Camavinga has to be sold in the beggining of the transfer window in the summer and then go for Wharton/Stiller ,enough is enough

    Dont think Stiller is good enough. I like Wharton, but i dont think he can walk into the team right away. Camavinga is a gem, but these injuries does not help him.

    He may be a gem, but so is Fede and Tchou.

    Players who are better on those positions who don't get hurt every 3 games.

    We would still need to replace the body. A striker then? or a backup winger ?

    We go all out for Haaland in the summer - either by offering them Vini in the deal or by the money we get from selling him.

    There is zero doubt IMO that Haaland has a clause in his 7-8 year contract and things are starting to get fed in the media about him playing for Madrid one day. No smoke without fire. We say the same thing when we have our guys leak stuff so it’s no different

    My man, the sh!t that Vini has pulled in public and the crap his agents have leaked via The Athletic + his nasty performances in the last 1.5 years make him unmovable to a club with even a faint level of self respect.

    This is my fear. Anyone with two eyes, who would take him? He truly is that bad right now.

    But at the same time, he currently (and for a long time) does not deserve the €18m he currently earns let alone the €30m he's asking for..let him keep at it and he'll find himself looking for a villa in the Riyadh Diplomatic Quarter.

    Would love kvara but feel like he just signed for PSG yesterday. Kenan is decent, reminds me of a chiesa. For me Antonio Nusa looks to have that special sauce.

    I think when we bought Modric and Kroos both were so much more experienced and settled than the players we're talking about today.

    We're stuck in this project zone but our last great team was built by getting players that already played that level of football that we are playing.

    True. We were looking set for the future when we were signing young talented midfielders like Cama, Tchou, Bellingham and Arda and every summer on top of having Valverde in the squad but together all of them just don't work as expected.

    We shouldn’t have signed Arda really, no need.

    Played him at right wing for 2 years (barely), now we’re transitioning him to a central mid in his third year. All the whilst he’s an attacking central player.

    It’s like we’re taking the tough route on purpose.

    Same with Mastantuono.

    The coverage there for him has been mostly negative. I don't get the point there?

    They just recently showed how much money he's practically burning through with his lifestyle and business choices.

    Cortegana is effectively the unofficial spokesperson for his Jr.'s entourage and agents.

    Stuttgart want to sign Gonzalo Garcia ASAP. He's their DREAM target. They want him on a permanent transfer, but Real Madrid would prefer a loan.
