Other clubs' transfers

I'm in danger of feeling optimistic for the start of the season. Especially if we sign Traore tomorrow.

 

This wasn't supposed to happen.

 

To provide context to this, last summer we bought Philip Senderos, Joe Cole and Kieran Richardson.

 

Imagine that.

ANy big spending spree will have a number of duds. Always best to add 2-3 rather than 5-6.

 

They did pretty well with the Carrick & Berbatov money mostly. Modric & Bale was the tipping point.

 

How do Porto & Benfica deal with player sales? They just go right back into their S. American network and did up another batch?

It is easy to say in retrospect, but Soldado just seems the exact archetype of a big-money striker that flops in England. The team doesn't play to his strengths, he has no outstanding physical attributes that obviously contribute to the team and finds himself being replaced within in the year. It seems to happen every season.

 

I am very surprised by how underwhelming Lamela has been though. I thought he was on his way to being a top-level star along with Ljajic and Pjanic.

Eriksen has been alright, and has really been the only one to stick.

 

It's incredible they have nothing else to show for that money.

 

Even we had the likes of Cabaye, Ba, Remy, Ben Arfa, Debuchy come and go, and all of those would still get into their team!

Could do challenge for the top 4 year in year out as first team players?

Eriksen has been more than alright imo. For someone that reaches for the top shelf with his adjectives so often, that's an odd description from Kaka.

Liverpool have a few players who could fetch big money in a year or two. Moreno is exciting as hell, Benteke will shine. Sturridge is their best player and he wouldn't look out of place at a team like Madrid if he could stay fit. Coutinho will do very well this season as well since he's got actual strikers to pass to. Liverpool have a very strong team now and they'll challenge for the CL.
