Rumours Center

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Also, Real asking that kind of money for a striker they never use and don't want is an insult.

"Guy can't get a starting spot" that's stupid because he plays for Real Madrid where players like James or isco are on the bench.

He played less games than Benzema but still scored more goals. I think he is better than Benzema and I would be thrilled if we signed him. 70 millions however is way too much for a player who has had 1 good season.

He plays as an impact player from the bench for since he broke through and even most of his Juventus career. Didn't improve in that regard at all. If he was better than Benzema he'd start more games than him. He is a good player and unique but yes those are crazy prices.

"guy can't score 20 goals a season" but these stats are more relevant:

He has a better goal per minute ratio than Ronaldo.

How is that stat more relevant than scoring goals?

Big Alexis to Bayern rumors today.

 

[Pogba4Now]

yes we heard it.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Bayern is now after Yannick Carrasco instead of Alexis because of the latter's wage demands.

 

[Arnau]

Because he had It done with City

 

[ShiftyPowers]

It's definitely the wages. Shattering the wage structure is how we lost Kroos, I don't think they'll do it again unless it's someone really special like Lewandowski was.

 

[Arnau]

There's something more than wage issue behind Kroos leaving for Real Madrid

 

[ShiftyPowers]

That's what it was. He saw Gotze making a LOT more money and he wanted to be paid fairly for his role in the squad. The board thought he wasn't very important for that kind of money. Because they are stupid. Pep warned them.

 

[poet11]

Mbappe is not happening. We are negotiating for Lacazette and interested in Lemar.

 

[poet11]

Man Utd negotiating for Fabinho. Bayern are getting Brandt and Goretzka.

Man Utd negotiating for Fabinho. Bayern are getting Brandt and Goretzka.

No we aren't

 

[Arnau]

Fabinho-Ander-Pogba

Now thats CL level

 

[ShiftyPowers]

It's embarrassingly wrong about Bayern, why would it be right about United?

Great midfield though, I agree.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Big rumor about a huge upcoming week for Chelsea

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Let's see...

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

I don't know much about Bakayoko but he certainly looks like a Chelsea play should look

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Arnau tell me about Vitolo

 

[Arnau]

Big, fast, drives with the ball very well (and very often), good 1-on-1, ambidextrous, hard worker. Not very associative player.

Is he linked with Chelsea? I can see him as wing back there, better than Moses and can play on the left as well.
