Sahin + Adrian
For
Clasie + Soldado

Worth it in your opinion? Gives me a better striker and a different option to Jovetic, Sahin a loss but Clasie rated highly in holland and around Europe, already got plenty of CMs anyway

posted on 2/12/12

Do it

Clasie a fantastic youngster, with a lot of potential, rated very highly on here as well. Soldado could even be starting for you in most games, whilst Adrian and Sahin have had shocking seasons so far

Clasie is good but not all that bothered about either, I want De Bruyne back from his loan, can't remember if I had recall or not though

He could slot into a deep lying CM role quite perfectly for me, allow Yaya more freedom up the pitch too

Yeah, pretty sure there was a re-call, you did the deal with me

I don't think you should be starting him though, IMO, you should play:

Ramires Inler
Lamela Yaya Mata

Yeah I will most of the time but De bruyne is looking very good for Bremen, would definitely be an improvement to my squad and give me more options in midfield. Can play both wings and behind the striker as well, but I also like Lucho, think he's very underrated, could see what a huge loss he was to marseille and how good he's been for Porto since his return

I want to do the same with El Shaarawy and Caulker, but would feel bad taking them back, and they are more important to their teams. De Bruyne looks a great talent, must say, much better than what I was expecting. However, Bundesliga seems to be his type of League, would have to see how well he does in the PL next season, to see if he can carry on this great start.

I've never really care for Lucho, getting old, and doesn't have much to do in Portugal, but has done well in the CL for them from what I hear.

How is Markus Henriksen rated?

Lost Soldado to get Sahin...

Maybe not the best idea ever but might be able to get a quality Striker with De Jong maybe. Unless I can get any for Foreign's?

Carlos Vela has 5 Goals and 2 assists in 13 games in the BBVA this season, not bad at all, for a 23 year old who is proving himself at the top level. Also counts as HG, which is an added bonus

posted on 2/12/12

Lucho always think he's had great work rate, puts 110% in every time so a good player to have.

De Bruyne seems to have been key for Norwich but I'm ruthless

I think he'd be we'll suited to the PL in a similar role to the one Modric had for spurs, only 20/21 too so plenty of time to adapt. Favourite thing about him is some of the goals he scores

posted on 2/12/12

Not a bad player actually. A very good HG. Probably one of the best you are able to get at the moment.

Right, need a Top Class ST, s=anyone got one? Not Doumbia 21. Lewandowski? Maybe?

How do people rate Gameiro? Been getting starts for PSG with Ibrahimovic I think and coming on being dangerous. Hugely linked with Valencia to replace Soldado as I think he has had a argument with the manager but not too sure. Worth a go?

posted on 2/12/12

He's good but said to others in your position he'd have to be playing a lot more than he is for psg

posted on 2/12/12

I'd probably say Doumbia is better though tbh

posted on 2/12/12

Yeah, he's got a very powerful shot on him. Isn't dynamic enough for AM, also thinking Chelsea will have the Mata/Oscar/Hazard going on for a long time, with maybe De Bruyne and Romeu filling in behind in a couple of years time. I don't think he is anywhere near as good on the wings as in the centre.

Henriksen??

Lukaku should play ahead of Gameiro.

posted on 2/12/12

Maybe not dynamic enough for AM in the PL* It was meant to say, realized I was being too harsh on him

posted on 2/12/12

Lewandowski NFS

posted on 2/12/12

But Doumbia isn't really what I'm looking at really. I like Gamiero, starting for France at the moment, keeping Benzema, Giroud etc out of the side.

But probably do need someone better.

posted on 2/12/12

I think with Lampard pretty much confirmed as leaving, De Bruyne will be back next year rotating with the likes of Ramires, Mikel, Romeu ect in a deep role. Mceachran there too if he keeps his form up for Boro but maybe he'll have a loan in the PL next year.

In the long run I think

Chalobah De Bruyne
Mata Oscar Hazard

I see Romeu going back to Spain, but Chalobah will be amazing anyway.

He's really good on the left, his crossing is pretty much perfect, reason for Vossen/Benteke getting so many goals.

Henriksen is good, would have expected a big move by now but he's still very young

posted on 2/12/12

Gameiro hasn't made the French squad for 10 months let alone started. Doumbia quite a bit better imo

posted on 2/12/12

I still think Chelsea will buy a top, top DM. Haven't watched Belgium much, so no idea how good he is for them, but my views are he is wasted on the wings. Hasn't got the pace, but whilst his passing from wide areas are something of a luxury, he never really looks like he's in the game, but in the centre, he's always ready to receive and move the ball on.

Henriksen just moved to AZ in the summer, they're are a very good stepping stone, players like Dembele were brought by them at this age, and look how he turned out.

posted on 2/12/12

Yeah that's true on Henriksen, a good season in Holland and we should see him move up, is imagine it will be a slower progression than first expected though.

De Bruyne starting regularly for Belgium recently but I think mostly as a right winger or a CM. The best thing is though that I've just realised his mother is English and he was eligible to play for England which makes him a HG

I can't really see us buying a top class DM tbh, people have said it for years but every manager always seems to rate Mikel. I think Romeu or Chalobah will likely be our main DM in the future tbh

posted on 2/12/12

Fully expect Henriksen to join a very good club in one of the top Leagues in the next 2 years or so. This season he has been quality, and only 20.

You going to recall him or not? Pretty sure there was an option, and you don't have to do a deal with Saf to get your own player back

I like Mikel too, improved a lot considering how awful he one was 3/4 years back. Although he is prone to the odd mistake, hardly any of your fans seem to rate him

posted on 2/12/12

I'm very tempted to, will have a think about it, not really in any rush atm

Yeah Mikel has been much better this season and I think most fans are slowly coming round to him. Always been very good at retaining position but the problem is he's very slow with it most of the time, previously it was that he never passed forward, now it's that he's too slow passing forward. Also he seems to make a lot more runs forward this year, has really good at beating players but then his end product is really lacking, at times it's limiting Ramires to having to stay back and cover which is a problem. I don't think he'll get any better than he is now but he's a good DM, Romeu and Chalobah have potential to be a lot better though

I heard Essien's back with you lot now, as he is injured, will you will give him some game time after he recovers or send him back to Madrid? Or do you think he's well and turly finished

posted on 2/12/12

Essiens back?

Would love to see him back in the squad we really lack numbers in CM but seems he's just had an allergic reaction to medication for a minor injury and will go straight back afterwards.

He's only back because we seem to be good at treating ilness, Drogbas malaria, Sturridge in the summer ect

Oh and we have Eva

I suspect he'll go straight back unfortunatley
