Since Martin Skrtel basically fuged away our chance at Top 4, I figured I'd start this thread. News, rumors, opinions, etc... post 'em here!

Hearing Gotze could very well be on his way to Liverpool. Still think it's a stretch, but it will be interesting to see if it plays out.

Paul Pogba on a lot of radars right now and could break the transfer fee record.

Also- it appears Arsenal and Liverpool may fight it out for Granit Xhaka. I highly rate Xhaka and think he'd pair perfectly with Emre Can for the future, especially if Hendo is sold.. Both Xhaka and Can are physically sound and classy in possession. He is also exactly the type of player Arsenal needs though.

Arsenal got El Nenny in January who has been lights out so far and teenager  Iwobi blew up out of no where.  That might end Xhaka interest.  Arsenal need a striker bad...  Giroud finally got bench and it looks like his days at Arsenal are numbered.

Want Benteke? He can't finish his breakfast, but he seems like a nice guy.

Would be really pissed if Götze leaves.  One of the many things I was looking forward too without Pep was to see him actually involved and get a chance to do something

Won't be surprised if Wenger will go after Gotze and moves Alexis to CF. I'm sure Gotze would not mind playing beside Ozil :p

Yeah, I am afraid a lot of people are going to come after him, was thinking he might get moved last summer when people were all about the pipe dream of getting Müller.  Of course who knows what will happen when Carlo takes the reins.

Looks like Granit Xhaka to Arsenal is becoming very likely. Sucks. I really rate him.

Gotze is almost certainly out the door at Bayern. Looks to be either back to Dortmund or off to reunite with Klopp. Hopefully Bayern are hesitant to sell to Dortmund and he'll come to England.

Yea... Weird...  We got Elnenny and Coquielin...  I mean... Xhaka is a very good, physical player, it means Cazorla is likely a gonner...  Looks like Wenger is planning on rebuilding his D with purchase of of 2 DMs Elnenny and hopefully soon Xhaka,

Joyce and Barrett reporting Gotze has informed Klopp and Liverpool he wants to join this summer. Klopp will give him a defined role and Gotze is committed to getting back to the level he was at under Klopp. Fee could be less than £20m. Absolute steal for us if true.

£20M is insane...  I'm sure others will swoop in.  The only beef I have with Gotze is he very fragile.

Yea. I think that's why Klopp is trying to get the deal done before the window officially opens. Gotze is keen to work with Klopp again and I think we'll meet his wage demands. And yea, Gotze has a tendency to pick up a lot of knocks. Not exactly a good thing headed to the Premier League. Hopefully his quality surpasses that.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
