i wouldnt say overhyped, he showed what he can do for a decent side in swansea, and he will be a starter for spurs so it depends on how quickly he will fit in, and 8m for a goalscoring midfielder is pretty decent, hed have been a decent option for us as we desperately need goals from midfield and gerrard wont stay fit the whole season but if a club comes in and offers 50% more wages and they have a better short term future, im not surprised he chose them

He's heading into chaos with Avb in charge.

I think Liverpool can get better than him tbh.

Ye I'm the 4th driver on my own car Picking up points hasn't helped me either.

I would say overhyped. He couldn't get a game for Hoffenheim.

Guv,

I made you an offer

the problem is, i dont think we have a massive amount to spend, and realistically we need 4 new players for the front 5 poisitions, and siggy represented a fairly cut price low risk option

My Ideal Signings for each Position:

RM: Ramirez
DM: Granero
AM: _________
ST: Schurrle (Can play Wing as well)

That's harsh on AVB, Guv, I think he'll do well. He only failed at Chelsea because of the old guard's egos.

What did you get your points for, RoF?

21, is that Ramires as in Chelsea's Ramires, or another one?

You won't sign Schurrle either.

I know we won't My DREAM Signings.

Ramirez, The Bologna one L

gaston ramirz is going to be 16-20m, granero isnt really any better than what we already have

and rof he was player of the season for hoffenheim last year, it was this season that the new manager didnt really use him (who has since lost his job) so he went out on loan

Speeding and possibly 3 more on the way for running a red. Had been driving for 3 years, then caught twice in a few months. Don't speed anywhere anymore!

Ramirez has been linked with Liverpool to be fair has he not? And if Granero as well would be quite the Uruguayan contingent

Sorry 21, still no deal. Want to keep Coentrao.

Avb failed due to his poor man management. He thought he could play hard nose with the players and mis judged the whole thing badly. If he has learned from that he has a chance. If.

Rdm has a similar challenge to Avb now. It will interesting to see how he tackles the same problems.

Granero as Back-up to Lucas

I thought Granero was Argentine/Spanish?

I don't know who that Ramirez is, then.

Is Lucas going to back next year? He's a really good player I think. Not sure why you need Granero if Lucas will return, he's better than Granero.

He still only started 13 games that season...... Firmino is ahead of him, he'd be a better signing.

Sorry ye Grane0ro is Spanish, was thinking of Gargano

You could do worse than trying to get Aquilani settled. He is a top player when on form.

Lucas is IMO One of the best DM in the world.

I would Love Aqua to settle in, he is class

ROF

Wouldn't say he's one of the best DMs in the world, maybe in the PL.

I also agree, Guv. Aquilani is class.

I don't know who that Ramirez is, then.
-------
good little player, uruguayan and i think is breaking into the national team, the sort of player that could play anywhere in the 3 positions behind a main striker

Is Lucas going to back next year? He's a really good player I think. Not sure why you need Granero if Lucas will return, he's better than Granero.
-------------
i think he may be fit for the start of the season, we do need to try and bring in a decent backup option though, as he has made himself a key player for us and we dont really have a replacement

But then, I'm a Liverpool fan I would say that.

Masch, De Rossi are certainly better.

Busquets and Khedira both = Lucas IMO

Wouldn't say he's one of the best DMs in the world, maybe in the PL.
-------
best in the premiership, and by a fair bit before his injury, it all depends on how he will be when he comes back and off the top of my head id have him in the top 10 in the world

Hodgey, your sub cb on here has been sent to jail for a few years

Busquets easily > Lucas. Busquets is actually serious underrated because he's a diver and plays with Xavi and Iniesta.
