SUMMER TRANSFER THREAD 2013

[Yoshie]

Doesn't even surprise me with Jose

[A walmart bag]

No news on any Arsenal transfers?

 

LEAVE IT YH!

[The Infamous]

Maureenhoe always doing some rash shit cos his pride

 

would love to see him fail and the media stop being pally pally with him. Like who has ever sold their poty with out the player wanting to leave

 

smh

 

fuck this guys circus expect him to go on his rants and come out with belters next season 

[The Somalian]

Is Jose really that petty, guy is a world class player who seems humble

[Thizz]

Mata story is dead food.

Started in Marca.

Tryna unsettle him.

He'll have a new deal by the end of summer.

[Natty]

Mata story is absolute gas

[Lens]

Mata doesn't suit the Mourinho style of play.

 

So he either waits until Mourinho has remoulded him into what Mata wants him to be, which would potentially ruin the player and be against the player's will, possibly not actually work, or Mata might not be good in Mourinho's version of his role

 

Or cash in

 

Mata will be sold, and it will make sense

[youcleanwepaint]

Mikel to gala (replaces melo)

anyone think of any players to play for a club and not score a goal for them in recent years???

[Thizz]

He scored 2 in the FA Cup in his first year.

 

Would be sad to see him go.

Doesn't get the plaudits he deserves from a lot of Chelsea fans.

[i5_PRODUCER]

Not saying the guy is SICK but no doubt he was a useful cog for chelsea

 

Never seen him try to dispossess man on some Essien tip but as a player to get the ball from the defense and push it out wide or to the mid he did his job.

[Fighting Weight]

Mikel is a very good holding player his only real drawback is his limited ability with the ball (compared to the other top holding players)

 

good tackler, good reader of the game, good in the air (very very important & underrated attribute for a holding player) and a neat distributor of the ball

 

His problem is he more of a 2000s era holding player, much more of the makelele than the busquets type, he cant/wont run the game from deep in midfield the way Fernandindo, Carrick, Arteta, etc do

 

Not sure why mourhino wants rid of him though, assumed hed  play Mikel next to a passer, or at least as backup as Essien/Ramires will probably start most games

[Mame Biram Diouf]

Jose wants Terry playing week in week out

 

Luiz and Ramires holding with Essien and Romue as back up

 

Terry/Cahill/Ivanovic/Chabolah as the CBS with Luiz covering in an injury crisis 

 

Or he hopefully wants to sign Khederia

[Thizz]

#cfc say quotes attributed to Mikel claiming he will join Galatasaray are not his. Club say he has "not spoken on this subject".

[Nidge Weasle]

jay bothroyd is no longer a QPR player

 

[Hipster]

Antonio Luna - Sevilla

 

 

[Bruno Di Gradi]

thats not a bad buy that

 

definitely better than any of their other options

[Captain Planet]

Rah, no ramping

 

All this makes for a better Prem
