Pilko Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Why the hell would we believe 15m was 'healthy' for Wijnaldum? We paid about that and he scored 11 goals from midfield in a shit team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 What absolute drivel I mean aye I'm sure Real Madrid just rang us up and said "we'd give you £30m for that Sissoko lad you know, I mean we aren't going to, but we would".. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odear Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Seems to be more in the Fernando rumours, personally would be quite excited by this signing. He reads the game well and just does the simple things which give players like Shelvey the time to do what they're good at. To put in perspective, I would imagine his defensive stats over his time at Porto and few appearances for City are similar to William Carvalho (the glaring difference between them is long range passing, Carvalho would rival Shelvey..) Comparing him to Colback is idiotic. One can tackle, one cannot. One is strong, one is not. One wins headers, one does not... and so on.. you get the picture. Be more than happy if Rafa got him in, especially at that price, in the prime of his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Fast but crap imo (from the Daily Fail:) Middlesbrough have received enquiries from Newcastle United and West Ham for Adama Traore but are reluctant to sell. The former Barcelona prospect has also drawn attention from Chelsea, who made enquiries about him in January, and is keen to speak to Premier League clubs. However, Garry Monk believes he can make him a better player and is hoping to convince the 21-year-old to stay. Traore made 32 appearances for Boro last season though failed to score.

Altamullan Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Seen Fernando play a few times at The Etihad over the last two seasons. Even at 30, and although never going to be exciting to watch, he is a sound defensive midfielder and would be an excellent signing. Not least as I think the competition and the observation/training would help bring Hayden on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 If we were forming a sprint team, I'd take him. Absolutely! Shit off a stick. Shot ourselves in the foot though letting Kev Mababu go. The relay would have been awesome! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
