It’s a great move for English football to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 They now look close to signing Rodrigo from Valencia. Personally I don't think he's done enough in his years in Spain and believe they(and Valencia themselves) could do better. He's class when at his best, but his inconsistencies don't make him the most attractable of purchases for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree - seems a bit of a strange one - not sure he's going to offer them much more than they have already. Bit of a panic buy as can't imagine he was their first choice.

SirBalon 2,692 Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 The first choice was Paulo Dybala but signing him is a complicated business clubs have been chased out from this summer. Rodrigo adds diversity in attack because he loves to come in from out wide. On his day he’s brilliant but he is inconsistent, or has been uptill now.

Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Trippier has been class for them(as has Thomas, he's really coming into his own this term in midfield!), but 7 goals in 8 games is a cause of concern for them in my opinion. They don't have anything at all in terms of fire power. They are literally devoid of it. Their defence, as always, has been solid and they haven't conceded many, but they have nothing in them in terms of goals thus far. Diego Costa looks finished, Morata is average and Joao Felix is still too young to rely on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Goal.com) That would be a good move allround. He should do it. He'd do well in Brazil at this stage of his career and they currently have a cracking side. Filipe Luis is there now also.

(AS - in Spanish) A striker is what they seriously lack. I believe they have everything else and if they had a top striker then they would likely be winning more comfortably.

Carnivore Chris 2,606 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 They have signed Salisu for 12 million and he will join them in June. Good player for his age and is one of the best young players in La Liga this season. The only problem is, he's only played for half of a season at senior level. 12 mil in this age is bargain but Spanish clubs need to start thinking more about these clauses as they could have received alot more.
