Don't have one.
ohh, i didnt even mean those... i was thinking more of Dalbert, Nainggolan, Mario...:eek:kay:

Yeah trash galore :lol:

But bar some miracle I don't think those names you v mentioned will play here next season, we will get fucked in those deals but at least we will not see them playing here. Those four horseman of apocalypse I mentioned though, different story.

You guys are looking at it wrong, he’s Eriksen’s replacement on a free for half his salary. I know there is this dream that Eriksen will play for us again but let’s be real if you’ve seen the Italian laws there’s almost no chance of that happening and as cruel as it sounds Zhang probably can’t wait to terminate his contract

So what? Hakan is not good enough and it’s not “half Eriksen’s salary”, he’s looking to be one of our top earners.

He’s not good enough for this club AND he’s a piece of shit. Fuck this. We’re going from a Scudetto winning side to an EL qualification candidate.

Wouldn't say he's totally bad but he has my doubt, like we have with our new coach. He has high chance to be a flop but who knows, he has new team/environment, new teammates (better ones :troll:) that might help him better.
As it stands, I see more lose to Milan than Inter, they have to spend for key player replacement and take more risks that us.

98 - Hakan #Calhanoglu is the player with the most chances created (98) in the Top-5 European Leagues in 2020/21. Trigger

This guy played 1 good season and now he wants a big contract. Can't imagine what happens after the next season, when he sucks again... :yao:

Dont know much about this guy but I hope we dont regret signing him. Hope he does a Darmian on us than all the failed Turks at Inter.

Has there ever been a Turkish player who did not fail miserably at a big club?

As far as I know (except those with German citizenship) most Turkish players who had potential when they were young end up being signed on loan by some Istanbul-club during their peak years..

In that regard Hakan has done fairly well compared to many of his peers.

Pros:
- Free. 5m is still immense though, but still, put it this way, 12m transfer fee and 3m net per year is more acceptable.
- His end product is good, which we always lack.
- Hakan has great shots and passing.
- He is the closest to Eriksen we can find on the market.
- Luiz Alberto was considered too slow too, to do anything significant (hence available for 4m). But Inzaghi utilized him perfectly and set the tactics to shield that weakness.
- We weakened Milan. They have literally zero replacement for him and more desperate to overpay for Tonali.

Cons:
- He sucks.

Hakan isn't the typical Turkish player. He was born in Mannheim, he grew up in Germany and he played football at Karlsruhe, Hamburg and Leverkusen prior to his move to Milan. When it comes to his footballing roots, he's more German than Turk.

Yilmaz just won Ligue 1 with Lille at 35

Yazici as well at 24 with Lille played a big part as their main playmaker.

I say we strengthened Milan by taking this shithead off their books. Now a huge chunk of our wage is spent overpaying this guy, who has done nothing in his life to justify earning above the likes of Lautaro, Brozovic, Skriniar, de Vrij, Barella, while Milan is freed up to spend their money on a better player - which they could probably find lining up for Campbell's Chunky Soup at a homeless shelter.

Whatever. I've already enjoyed a scudetto and I'm ready for the insanity of our next few years. Bring it on.

Ozil was dishing out assists, especially for Real Madrid

Other than that, most Turkish players in big clubs are ass

Biasin: "The entourage of Kessie is quite annoyed by the offer of the Milan which is between 4 and 4.5 million, while the request is 6 "

Another free transfer next season.

We should have gone for Van De Beek on loan instead of this clown.

Romano: Hakan Çalhanoglu confirms to @trtspor: “I’ve reached an agreement with Inter, yes. I’m flying to Milano tomorrow and then I’m gonna sign the contract”.

He’s set to sign until June 2024 for €5m/season net as salary. Also €1m bonus per season will be included.

Inter sell him to some mediocre PL or Bundesliga team?

Ozil is another German grown. Similar situation with guys like Gundogan, Nuri Sahin, Emre Can, Mehmet Scholl etc. These guys are special cases.
