Transfer: Winter mercato window rumors

[S E P H]

Also in actual football news, Arsenal put in a 50 million Euro bid for Auba which was rejected (don't know if that was posted in between here).

Aside from the "He shouldn't feel bad about being robbed after moving to a foreign country because he comes from a worse country (where he wasn't robbed)" bit, sure

Pretty much, he was surrounded by violent crimes throughout his time in Argentina. It should have prepared him for the English thugs that have nail files.

Just because him and his wife are too scared doesn't mean their fear is justified. ADM has enough money to invest in samurai swords, ninja stars, and alike.

After last week's comments about there being nothing to do in Egypt but blow each other up, I think it's pretty clear he's not the resident TripAdvisor

Wrong, I said there wasn't anything to do in Egypt except grave rob for permanent residents.

Emerson was Liverpool’s Top LB (over Robertson) target until he tore his ACL on the last day of Serie A. Had a very good season until injury and I think Italy may have gotten him to switch his national team to Gli Azzurri, but his injury may have complicated things. The talent is there. Just a matter of health.

He indeed switched to Italy. A smart choice as he wouldn't sniff a call-up to the NT as LB is the deepest position for Brazil. I'd take Alex Telles over him, tbh.

I always liked Dzeko and have never seen this left back play

Anyone want to throw some insight my way if they've seen him play?

I'd be on board with a Dzeko signing as well, assuming that the price is reasonable (what I've seen is 55m for the pair of them, 30 for Dzeko and 20+5 for Emerson). I do hope, however, that the past few matches are an indication that we'll be keeping Batshuayi.

So Pogba's allegedly demanding to be paid as much as Alexis, who was poised to overtake him as the highest paid player in the league...

Mkhitaryan also to get a pay bump over what he was making at Utd

 

[Cassano]

Which players would interest BvB? Maybe Xhaka or Giroud?

 

[Savant]

Would have to imagine Dortmund would want a striker back.

Welbeck, Giroud or Nketiah then.

Giroud.

Iwobi

Giroud is the rumor I've heard most

 

[Cassano]

That's Aubameyang's Porsche btw.

 

[cgf]

What about Bellerin?

 

[S E P H]

It's gotta be Giroud; he's the only who has value, a good goal scoring record, and was heavily rumoured to want a move out by his agent RIGHT before the Winter window opened. I can't see Arsenal getting rid of Bellerin or Iwobi. However he is currently injured with...I believe a calf or hamstring strain. Not too serious, but enough that he hasn't played in the last three weeks at least. Would BVB fans here want a player who is currently injured?

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Pretty sure Giroud has stated earlier that he was going to Dortmund last summer if Aubameyang left.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Which players would interest BvB? Maybe Xhaka or Giroud?

Bellerin

 

[maclean]

That's Aubameyang's Porsche btw.

Just imagine it was Dembele's Porsche, what a scandal that would be!!!

 

[Cassano]

He's our only RB and loves the London limelight so I think it's out of question.

 

[Spoiled Bratt]

Please let it be Xhaka... pleeeeeeease!

 

[HajdukSplit]

I just saw on transfermarkts transfer updates that two Saudi national team players have joined La Liga clubs on loan for the season. I have read that the Saudi FA is encouraging their players to go to Europe for World Cup preparation but I have no read that there is an agreement between La Liga and and the Saudi FA to bring some players in, mickey mouse imo Seems purely marketing and no guarantee these guys will even play, one is going to Villarreal for example

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Please let it be Xhaka... pleeeeeeease!

That could work out okay, we need a back up for Weigl, but I don't like the wages, so you'd need to take back Schurrle.

Schurrle and Aubameyang for Giroud, Xhaka and 60M

 

[HajdukSplit]

Here is Sid Low writing about it, seems like something MLS would have done 5-10 years ago, in fact you can argue it still is deciding where players go

 

[Evilo]

Since Auba would be lucky to go for 60M, you think Schurrle is worth Giroud+Xhaka?

I'm sure Javier Tebas doesn't see anything wrong with this.

I think it will be around 50M+Giroud for Auba. I really don't care about swapping Schürrle for Xhaka. Neither will really help BVB much.

 

[Evilo]

Arsenal would be stupid to spend 50M+Giroud for Auba.
Especially since they have needs just about everywhere but striker.
