Transfer: Winter 2016 Transfer Window Rumours and discussion II

[Luigi Habs]

is that the same Felipe who played for Impact?

I'm confused

lol no. It's that Felipe: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felipe_Anderson

Pretty talented player, but not sure Man Utd needs another winger. He can also play as an attacking midfielder.

United continues to throw insane amounts of money to good but not great players.

ah ok

United continues to throw insane amounts of money to good but not great players.

Including Martial

English tabloids
Mahrez says he is a fan of Barcolna and Messi - there are even pics of him wearing their jersey - so now they are saying Barcelona wants to sign him

 

[Evilo]

Including Martial

Totally. He's right now a good but not great player.
And remember I totally mocked United for paying that much for potential.
It's the same thing here, except I think it's fair to say Anderson's potential is nowhere near Martial's.

I think Martial will be a a great players
And he would have better number if LVG didnt play him on the wing

 

[Luigi Habs]

Uhh and now Lazio denies.

It was Gazzetta Dello sport that reported Lazio President saying that he sold Anderson to Man utd for 60M, and now they deny it.

GDS is usually legit fwiw

Italian presidents OTOH not so much...

Yes I remember this.

Eh...if Anderson can play consistently the potential that he showed last season I don't see why he would have a lower ceiling, plus they're paying less for him anyway. He is only 22.

I'd rather not see another talented attacking player go to United, or at least hope he flops like Memphis has so far.

true

Kurt, you seem to underrate Martial's potential by a country mile.
He has extremely high upside. Henry-like.

I have to agree
Hopefully his next coach will play him as a ST more often

Marco Hoger moving to Koln in the summer.

That wasn't a slight against Martial's potential, it was more of a commendation of how good Felipe was last season. Especially right before his injury he was eviscerating teams (was still great after, and has been intermittently this season)...nearly unplayable from what I saw. Consistency is what really separates great talents from great players (IMO) but that's something both will have to find.

Marco Hoger moving to Koln in the summer.

Interesting. He went to my school (a few grades below mine) so he is from the area, which puts the smart money on him being a Köln fan growing up. Should be another low-key smart addition for them.

Apparently Banega had a medical with Inter

Apparently Banega had a medical with Inter

I always felt he was a bit overrated, but it'll be interesting to see how he does there.

Did you really éver feel so?

[I am sorry.]

**** you Raouraoua

 

[HajdukSplit]

Badelj strongly being linked to Spurs, he won't cost much for EPL standards (below 10m euros) but I'm not quite sure he can be an effective EPL player, good technically but not a work horse and lightweight. However it seems he will move, for some reason he is unhappy at Fiorentina

Look out for Brozovic moving to the EPL too in the summer, especially if Inter don't finish in the top three. He will cost 15-20m though. Arsenal seem the favorites to get him but West Ham are linked as well, though can't really see them paying that much

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

I always felt he was a bit overrated, but it'll be interesting to see how he does there.

By whom? Nobody on here actually mentions him enough to be considered overrated, if anything he's underrated.

 

[Power Man]

I think Banega is underrated

At least at club level

I have a couple of Argentinians friends and they get very angry when Martino plays him

 

[Deficient Mode]

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned him a few times before. Awesome player. Too bad Inter has no idea how to attack. (Juve is nothing compared to them in offensive dreadfulness).

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

According to Kicker, Barcelona has shown the most interest in Sane, but he hasn't decided whether to leave Schalke or not. Not sure if this will go anywhere, cash is pretty tight and I imagine most of it will go towards a quality CB. Plus Sane still needs some developing.
