I enjoy how young players are completely forgotten about and underrated because they fail to make it at big clubs with managers who don't even desire to have them. Zaha is a more than competent Premiership wide player.

 

Except my opinion hasn't changed since long before he joined Yanited and have posts on here dating back to his Palace time saying he's obscenely overrated.

 

It has absolutely nothing to do with his time at Yanited tbh, I have never rated him and in all likelihood i never will. Oh and he's done nothing to prove he's a competent PL wide player even in the Championship he got hype well above his station.

 

Eventually he'll be seen for what he is.

£10mil for Abel Hernandez  :kasper:

Benfica offered a similar fee. He chose english football Hull City.

 

 

Manolas to Roma, 10.3 mil. I've never seen him play.. any good?

 

Marquinhos gone then Benatia man. Such is life

Quite good, I believe he won't disappoint. Seen a bit of him 'cause he scored against Benfica in the CL group stage and we later tried to sign him to replace Garay. Olympiacos asked for more than we're willing to pay for a CB I guess. We ended up spending 10M€ in Andreas Samaris (Matic replacement). Manolas, Samaris, Mitroglou, Joel Campbell... quite a decent team Olympiacos had last season. Would take Mitroglou instead of Abel Hernandez, as he's struggling right now.

32. He's getting on, but not finished yet.

 

His legs started to go last season, but used adequately he's still an amazing player. Actually Real Madrid will greatly notice his loss unless Illarra steps up to the plate (or they sign somebody else).

 

They'll probably play Kroos in his role tbh, in fact I'm convinced now that he was bought as Alonso's long term replacement.

Even Khedira isn't a typical "defensive midfielder", certainly in the past year or so he seems to have been getting beyond the midfield more and more. Extremely smart player.

 

Let's be fair, Real Madrid don't really need a defensive midfielder per se. I think they'll do fine. Mind, if they have any choice in the matter, it's odd to let Alonso go. He's not finished just yet.

Don't know if it's already been posted here, but the Tottenham purchase of Fazio (central defender) from Seville (I think) is a great transfer. He really is class and a leader, he's hard in the tackle, reasonably fast and can pass the ball, reminds me of a younger Vidic.

He will transform spurs' defence...

I remember someone on here claiming Haangeland was crap when Fulham signed him, and it was the same when Lovren signed for Southampton.

 

Centre backs are so difficult to judge, as this league is quite different. Fazio looks like a physical specimen, which could work for him here. With those mini spaniards whizzing about under his feet, he probably kept falling over.

 

Ironic that our very own MYM was lauded on here, only to be relegated to beneath Steven Taylor. Frightening.
