The 2011 January Transfer Window thread

Munian is at Athletic with Llorente. Fast and has a lot of flair, could be a world class striker but he's still 18/19.

Alvaro Negredo is your typical finisher, can score goals and can assist. He's 26.

I reckon Kalou is rubbish - greedy, wastes the ball, has next to no ability on it.
Can score a handy goal from time to time but it's not really worth playing him just for that.

Surprised Arsenal are in for him.

Don't think Cahill will make Chelsea any better so struggle to see the point in that as well.

Well it is Arsenal! And knowing them they'll use 20 million on him

muniain is more of a winger with real immaturity problems.

liverpool should look at soldado, a superb finisher.

With 45 million Liverpool could probably get Neymar. Yeah I went there. I doubt it will happen (like 0.01% chance) but it would be amazing for Liverpool if they did.

I reckon Suarez will go as well. Just because Real Madrid have thrown a rediculous amount of money at the Reds.

I think we're looking for someone in case Terry is out for a couple of months. I don't rate Cahill particularly highly, but he could be reasonably handy.

Neymarrr . If we got him....

 

[Thistle]

For 5 million pounds cahill is worth a punt to see if he can contribute at the top level

That's the complete opposite of Arsenal's usual modus operandi when it comes to transfers so its obvious you know next to nothing about Arsenal.

 

[glenferry23]

45m pounds for suarez? surely you would have to sell. he was bought for 23m right? almost doubling that fee within 12 months would be hard to resist, in light of the circumstances currently

 

[glenferry23]

what?

since when do arsenal pay 20m for players?

 

[moomba]

Most of the talk I've heard is £30m for Suarez.

Would depend how keen he is to move.

Neymar wouldn't go to Liverpool.

You spent what, 20 million or something, on Arshavin who had 1 good game, he and Kalou are on the same level.

I reckon he'd be pretty keen to get out of England.

And you never know, Lucas might have a word or two to him about Liverpool.

god neymar gives me the shits, he's a little obnoxious ****. and not in a funny way, in a nauseating way.

he'll end up at barca.

agreed, also he looks magic most of the time playing in brasilian league, but against better clubs he is painful to watch..they simply just embarrass him at times.

as for suarez, i think he'll stay at anfield simply because he has so much support behind him at the club.

 

[glenferry23]

over the last decade or so, i believe the highest we've paid is for arshavin at approx 17m. jose antonia reyes was around 16m and before him sylain wiltord was approx 13m.

to the best of my knowledge, we've never cracked the 20m mark and certainly dont flaunt that sort of cash as freely as you infer.

wenger usually looks for bargain basement players, such as 16/17 yr olds or french league 1 footballers. every now and then though he does spend more than usual - such as oxlade-chamberlain who cost around the 12m mark for a 17 yr old.

remains to be seen though what he decides with kalou. knowing how stingy he is, he'll likely try and batter down the 3m pound price tag further

 

[strauchanie59]

Against Barca in world club final he looked like a deer in headlights..he was terrible that night. But he is still 18.

 

[Magma]

tbf so did manchester united. it's unfair to judge anyone against barca.

Hence why I said he is still 18

not sure if this is aimed at me too but I wasn't thinking of the barca match

Aimed at me mate for when I said Neymar was terrible vs Barca.

 

[Latro]

I would think the main benefit for Suarez going to Spain is he can be racist without getting penalised at all.

 

[kane249]

To clarify it's $A45 Million, which equates to £30 million which explains where the 45 has come from, thought 45 sounded too goo to be true

Keep dreaming. He wants to join Real.
