Put them all here guys. Who do you want your favorite club to bring in. Who does it look they will, and who have they. 

 

Real Madrid Rumors...

 

1. Either Pogba or Vidal will be in Madrid this season. Remains to be seen who Ancelotti prefers. 

2. Morata is going.....somewhere?

3. One of Coentrao or Marcelo is likely to be sold. 

4. Benzema may be sold, but that depends on Real's ability to acquire Suarez or Aguero. 

6. Casillas could leave for the Premier League, however it's unlikely Real fans would get their coveted #1 in Courtois. 

7. Varane has been rumored as a priority for Chelsea, but it's much more likely RM parts ways with Pepe than sells the 21 year old Centre Back who is regarded as one of the best Defenders in the world.

 

 

 

Not a rumor, but I still want fuging Reus on this club!!

 

Whatcha got guys!

Looks like Rickie Lambert is in Liverpool to complete his medical. Fee is reported to be £4m + add ons. I think it gives us solid depth for a few years.

 

We have also agreed to a fee for Emre Can from Bayer Leverkusen, but the issue has been meeting the player's wage demands.

 

Sevilla has also rejected our £16m bid + Suso for Alberto Moreno. They want an additional £2m and have no interest in Suso.

Arsenal officials scheduled to meet with Real Madrid over transfer(s).

 

Possible players:

 

Benzema

Di Maria

Morata 

Khedira 

 

Arsene want world class striker so it looks like Benzema is the guy.  Multiple sources also reporting that Benzema is open to a move to Emirates. 

 

I'd love Di Maria/Benzema combo.

Sky sports reporting that Fabregas is leaving Barcelona and returning to England.  

 

http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11670/9333158/transfer-news-cesc-fabregas-set-to-leave-barcelona-and-return-to-the-premier-league-sky-sports-news-understands

 

His release caluse is £30m. It looks like Fabregas might be coming back to Emirates.  

 

That would be one sick midfield with Wilshere, Ramsey, Cazorla, Ozil and Fabregas.  Still need a winger and Striker.

Stay away from Di Maria. He's garbage... :lol:

 

Arsenal almost got him last year but Di Maria refused to move.  It was supposed to be a package deal Ozil/Di Maria for like $90m.  It looks like Arsenal might try to get him again in a package deal with Benzema.  I think Di Maria is realizing his time in Madrid is limited.

I don't think it is. He flourished as a midfielder.

Is it though? He had the best year of his entire RM career playing as an attacking mid. I think some would argue he may be better off there. The entire attack for RM moves around constantly anyway, so I'm not sure the position designation really matters.

Liverpool have increased their offer for Adam Lallana to £25m. It's a take it or leave it deal. If they say no, Liverpool will move on to Bayern Munich's Xherdan Shaqiri. £25m is too much for Lallana, so I sort of hope the deal falls through.

I hope it falls through, SH realizes that they are asking too much, and we can get him for 20m or less. I also hope Santa brings me a brand new Porsche too, which is more likely to happen than all that, lol.

Might want to add Lallana to the entrance list. Hearing Pochettino is very keen on bringing him in. Don't blame him.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
