It's less to do with them wanting to kick him out and more to do with signing Neymar and Mbappe so needing room in their squad along with recouping some money for FFP purposes

---------------

But why is it him specifically that has been told he can leave (assuming he has)? They have Di Maria, Moura etc. who have been there for longer. Is Draxler worse than them? They play similar positions so any of those three could go to make room for Neymar and Mbappe.

Didn't even know draxler was at PSG ... sign of the times I suppose.

Nothing wrong with him as a a signing but we already have Martial who can't get a start, so we don't really need more of the same...

Bayern should go get him... good back up for Robben/ribery

Di Maria and Neymar are better and both play from the left Moura and Guedes are predominately right sided.

One from Di Maria or Draxler needs to go.

Di Maria is a bigger name for the vanity project.

That could be true but Draxler is pretty flexible positionally right? I thought he could play through the middle and on the right also?

They are playing 4-3-3

There is no CAM spot and they have already moved Di Maria to the right.

Draxler is a victim of circumstance in this case.

But you just said Di Maria plays from the left?

Just kidding I can see where you're coming from but personally don't think Draxler is what we need nor is he a massive upgrade in what we have particularly.

He does but not when Neymar is in town

I don't think he fits in at United either, it would stunt growth of Martial and Rashford.

But I also think he's a really good player who's being treated very harshly because of the Qatari desire to win the CL at all costs as soon as possible.

Forget Draxler, how is Pastore doing? I remember when he was the 'New Messi'

posted on 17/8/17

I like Pastore a lot and would have him at LFC but his style would not suit now under Klopp.

Tekkers though.

neymar - cavani - Mbappe

reserves di maria, lucas

they will score bundles. cl within 3 years.

He's the German Oxlade Chamberlain. Moura is the winger we should sign from PSG if we're after one.

Draxler is massively overrated. Talented player no doubt but hasn't actually been good for about four years.

Yes, I would take Draxler in a second.

Can play wide left without cutting in all the time, beats players for fun, super feet, and would immediately upgrade out left hand side.

Would be like signing Perisic, but younger and, IMO, better.

its strange reading these articles knowing that that filtered to55er is just as annoying to everyone else

To be fair nothing Stretty has said is controversial or contrary, and I'm one of his biggest critics. As a wide player, Draxler is better than the majority of what we have now. And whoever said his signing would knock Lingard down a spot, so what? You're happy to let Lingard play more often rather than sign a world cup winning winger? You must be on a wind up.
