2016/2017 Midfielder Rumours Thread

[qb4ever_2k]

I would love Pellegrini at Inter but i don't think he's a realistic target for us. It would be foolish of Roma not activating their buy-back clause for just 11m. If they don't, i would want Inter to go for him.

That buyback clause actually makes the deal more realistic for us (and for other teams too). If we bid, let say, 12m, Sampdoria'd accept it hoping that Pellegrini will choose us. That way they will make more than just 11m from selling him back to Roma.

Anyone else feeling giddy about Eder + 10 M for Keita? Can't see Keita liking the bench much here. Would Peresic's day's be numbered?

I initially dismissed Keita as being overhyped, but I had a change of heart and now I see him as being more mature (on the pitch, at least). What I like best about this rumour is the ditching Eder part, though.

It would be tough, on the other hand, to convince Keita to come here even as a rotation squad member. In order to have rotation players, you have to have rotation in the first place. Gabriel and Jovetic barely play, surely Keita knows he won't be easily benching the others.

Well Perisics form isn't exactly making him unbenchable ATM.

A trident of Icardi, Barbosa, and Keita is mouthwatering. I believe he wanted to come awhile back, but that was when we didn't have a log jam of players in his position. Eder and 10 M really seems like a steal of a deal though.

Isn't Keira going to AFCON? There goes January right there. If it's a real possibility we should do it.

CdS says Rube will have 80mil ready to splash on Verratti in the summer,Marmotta wants a "Higuain deal" in mf
How are we supposed to compete with that?!

Here's the simple logic, if a club like Shanghai SIPG could seal Oscar for 60mil from chelsea imagine what suning can do.. They might outbid RuBe right away

 

[JJM]

now we can't spend a cent and in the summer we will be droping record fees left and right?!

 

[Tariq ZanDung]

I guess we are richer than one could imagine! Cheenos are wrecking the transfer market nowadays with massive banknotes!!

I hope Juve doesn't trick us into some type of a bidding war they have no intention of winning this summer and dry up our budget.

If Verratti chooses Juve or to stay at PSG I hope we go all in for James. This team does need a marquee signing.

I wanna know has the 4+4 rule implemented in serie A? I google it and it only shows several articles from 2 years ago saying that Serie A is proposing this 4+4 rules. But none of the articles shows it has been implemented. There is also one article saying that club trained players must be Italian born unlike the UCL rule. Obi, Miangue are not considered in 4+4 rule as of results.

If that is true, then I understand why Verratti is valued over 80M and I understand Inter management wants at least one Italian at forward, Midfield and Defender position.

When Rube asked for Verratti last summer Al-Khelaifi demanded 100m for him. I don't see how it would be any different this summer. Verratti has a contract with PSG until 2021 and they're still furious with Rube over the cases of Koman and Kimpebe. I can't see Verratti going to Juve(or anywhere else to be honest) unless they offer a transfer fee similar to Pogba's. And i doubt they will offer that much unless they sell Dybala.

 

[Ziyad]

The question about Verratti is he that much of a game changer to demand the price tag? Genuinely asking.

 

[varmin]

I don't get why everybody is so keen on Veratti? We have good midfielders like Brozovic, Banega and Mario and if Gagliardini turns to be good as well, i don's see the point to trow insane money on Veratti. We have other areas to be improved.

Grow a pair.

Important skill to have on an internet forum

PSG have a major issue with Juve after the whole Coman thing. Good chance we'd have an upper hand if there was a bidding war.

Veratti is the real deal, I still upset we missed 10 mil to snatch him. But think about it again, maybe he wouldnt become as good as he is now if stay in italy. At PSG basically he have room to improve and constantly play on highest stages like UCL. Now if we want comparing with our midfielder we have now, I think the different is not that far if comparing with Brozo or Mario on their best day. Nowadays the different between great and good player is how they can display some high performance constantly and how well they adapting with new environment. Even pogba as most expensive player still struggling on EPL, thats why I see he is overprice maybe only value half or one third from his fee. On our case, Comparing Joao Mario and kdog, both come with huge chunk of money but we can see how Mario is better player simply because he able adapting well better than kdog. Now if Veratti price tag is 80 mil, sure we will expecting he made impact double than what Joao Mario did.

 

[JJM]

Is it just me or Verratti wouldn't fit in our team...
How we gonna do it?!
4 or 3 df?!

I see Verratti as a Brozo replacement tbh or maybe not...
I think Suning want Bernardeschi and Berardi is plan B

Conti-Miranda-Murillo/Medel-Rodriguez
Verratti-Gagliardini-Brozo
Mario-Bernardeschi
Icardi

Too offensive?!
I don't want to drop Brozo man

Perisic and Candreva are not even needed anymore or Banega for that matter,only as subs?!

Verratti 80mil
Bernardeschi +50mil
Rodriguez 25mil
Conti 20mil
_____________
175mil

Breaking every fucking record we had under MM
Surreal at this point


Erm...Verratti,how is his defending?!
That is the first question we ask ourselves when we talk about new possible players tbh
Because we are a defensive minded club
DNA shit tbh!

 

[thatdude]

Veratti surprisingly loves a good tackle and getting stuck in. Now is he actually good at tackling? That's another question. The guys is a walking yellow card.
