2023/2024 Forwards Rumours Thread

We need to give bologna all our prospects and Arna back to have any chance for Zirkzee even then going to take that champions league title money to get it done

I agree with you, but the first sentence...I don't get why this argument is so popular. "We stupidly throw 1x amount on one crap so 2x on another is not that stupid" (?!?)
(not on Zirkzee in particular, but every time we are linked to an expensive)

Unless you mean we are so rich that such money is no problem (obviously not lol)

Every club made a few mistakes in their time. If Inter, a club with serious money issues, can find a way to pay so much for Correa (and Frattesi, and Pavard etc), I wouldn't mind Zirkzee too

 

[NimAraya]

Forget about Zirkzee. We don't have the money for him nor we need him. We need a good back up for Toro and Thuram, someone with the right characteristics with room for improvement. Our management should find a player in the same fashion they found someone like Bisseck. They should look around instead of focusing on just one or two names.

 

[wera]

We are getting Taremi, that's a vice Lautaro. Zirkzee would bring a certain flair that remind me of a young Sanchez. I say we DO need him. We score with every player on the pitch that isn't a GK, so a player like Zirkzee would add another outlet for our team to score.

Atm if Dumfries is not sold, I reckon a CB (Varane?) and a CF/SS one year later (Zirkzee) is what we need most.

 

[Choppin Onions]

Bad signing. We don’t need his profile. We need a fast and direct player. + He seems lazy off the ball.

He’s a lot quicker than you think a big man like him would be. He’s really smooth with the ball too. It’s easy to forget he’s got a finished product either at only 22. Him and Thuram splitting time with Toro would be fun to watch but alas he’s way out of our price range now.

I really don’t have a great feeling about Taremi. I hope we stay away. Him and Arna can’t be our 3rd and 4th strikers.

We were able to spend on Frattesi and Pavard because we sold Onana for big money (and Brozo for less but removed his salary).

In what sense? Can you elaborate?

Can set up others, holds on to the ball like glue, can score from nothing situations.

@CafeCordoba it's true, we sold Onana, but there might be somebody that we can sell and still play good football. Who knows, maybe somebody offers a lot of money for Pavard all of a sudden

Everything is possible

I will give Taremi one compliment - he looked a lot quicker against Arsenal yesterday than I thought he was.

Not that big of a deal if you considered him a fossil

 

[Kova10]

Will be funny to eventually see jaws dropping as soon as Taremi shows his worth. His style of play is inch perfect for what we are looking for, and this season there were many many things to take into account when rating his performance. To me it is enough that prior to that he has been a constant 10+10 guy at the very least.

 

[Alex de Large]

We need a poacher, can Taremi fill that?

 

[Corrode]

We don’t have any cash… so we can’t buy anyone. It requires someone is sold this is the consequence of our financial situation.

Just sell Inter to anyone who have much cash. Problem solved. The club finally can upgrade the squad every season.

Easier said than done. It’s not like we are in high demand. Italian football just isn’t an interesting investment sorry to break that for you.

Bye lautaro

[vex]

Its definitely one of the things we need, but I don't think selling lautaro who is the least of our problem in attack is the way to go. It's for sure the easiest way though.

Welcome new club minority shareholders

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

This would be great but I hope it doesn’t mean losing Thuram. He has been IMMENSE for us despite a poor game last night.

More Lautaro. If someone offer 100m, don Beppe won`t wait too much to pull the trigger.

 

[varmin]

Lapadula or Petagna. I wouldn't exclude Djuric as well.
