number9shirt Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/benitez-talks-to-start-t95m3mb9d Benitez has been given assurances he will be allowed to sign three players this month, including his first choice striker So generous! I wonder who his first choice striker is.... Giroud Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
louistoon Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Had no idea Sandro was on £100k a week. Mental Could make it very difficult for them to shift him. Who would even pay half that for someone with his record? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are talking about Dimitris Meliopoulos of Xanthi, whom Rafa Benitez wants in his team either now or in the summer. Of course, Christos Panopoulos is a tough negotiator and wants to "hit" a sales record of ... Mavropanou with his 18 year old stopper. Do not forget that Olympiacos has shown interest in the Xanthi player. http://www.agonasport.com/agonasport-allnews/xanthis-17-year-old-meliopoulos-becomes-first-superleague-player-born-in-2000 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 If that kid has any brain he signs for Rafa. Everton at the moment are a more stable club, and have a better record of bringing through young players. However playing for Fat Sam, fucking hell that’s enough to make any kid give up on the game.

Deuce Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 In theory, we should be looking to upgrade across the squad. But winger is really the last place we should be looking this window, especially with what little funds we may or may not have. It’s lowest priority. Edit: referring to Stanislas or similarly average players, obviously Schurrle would be a different story Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
