One of the reasons I ask, is that I'm not much of an aficionado about European Leagues and players who ply there trade over there!

Griezmann for me

I am not either Brummie, but Griezmann looks special.

Very different type of player than Costa, but i think he would fit well into our system

What about Batshuayi??? How much did he cost?

Icardi is probably the closest you'll get to Costa

Is he an out and out striker though Biggish? I though he was a Pedro/Hazard type attacker?

Muller's name has been bounded about the papers this morning. I am not sure about this signing, because he is not an out and out striker.

Icardi, Morata or even Lukaku. Out of them three I would choose Icardi

Icardi is crap.

Aubeymayang Cavani or Muller

I won't speak for everyone else, but it's a source of embarrassment for me that we pay over £30m for a player that doesn't even warrant being played when our number one striker is unavailable!

Not quite sure what happened there!

Sadly, about the same as Mane, but there is still time for him.

51 la liga goal in 92 games Brummie and Atletico are not the most creative of teams

Looks like the end of the premiership bubble. This Chinese league will take over in the Far East.

I think his movement is superb and a front three of Hazard,Griezmann and Pedro would be amazing...

too early to say...

For exampe, am I going to start watching the chinese League because they have the vast majority of top international players...

answer.........No!

Bat's first touch doesn't look great, maybe he is nervous, lack of confidence. This lad definitely needs to go out on loan.

Well that's one vote for Griezmann then. Do you think he would adapt to our style of play Biggish or do we play similar football to how he plays at Atletico?

I still have faith he can come good.................he really has not had a chance, a loan spell maybe the answer and you can see why Conte is thinking about the Llorente swap

I would. Will any channel start showing it? Plus a lot of your Far East market will deflect to the Chinese league.

Well, let's put it this way, I wouldn't be against this signing anyway. But as you said, Griezman is not an out and out striker, unless we try and adapt the Barca style of play and pack the midfield

Plus a lot of your Far East market will deflect to the Chinese league.

I might stand a better chance of getting tickets then!

There is always a risk that a foreign player can not adapt to the PL, he will have to toughen up a bit, but he is more in the Aguero mold, so as long as has the right attitudei think he can prosper.

I think he fits into a 3-4-3 ssytem with players like Hazard and Pedro buzzing around him...........

But I can't see him with a back to a big CB taking down an inch perfect long ball from Fabregas and winning the contest

Loan swap, a straight swap would be very silly on our part
