Transfer Rumour Axel Witsel

Not open for further replies.
Bit harsh to pin a relegation on one player. I was more making the point that we've waited long enough for witsel to tit around as I don't especially rate him either.

Reality is, we don't know why the deals taking so long. At 27 he would certainly be daft not to carefully consider this career move, and convincing him to join a team who has finished bottom half in the last 2 seasons instead of a Champions League team is going to be a tough sell too.

It doesn't really say anything about Witsels attitude.

So I just found it strange that you'd rather go for a Sissoko who's obvious bad attitude has just been a big factor in his team getting relegated. I wouldn't touch Sissoko, personally.

....I wonder how much Witsel might have been influenced by his Belgian/Everton contacts. Neither will have spoken in glowing terms over the past 12 months or so even though we have regime change.

I wondered this.

Maybe he's just better mates with Mertens at Napoli.

Having Mirallas and Lukaku here, plus all the other Belgian players in the north west, can be nothing but a positive for us.
 


You honestly reckon Lukaku is texting Witsel telling him to not sign for Everton? Open a window mate.

While I doubt he's putting him off you'd imagine, if we are even interested in Witsel at all, that he's had a word.

Just as I'd imagine Dries Mertens has had a word about Napoli.

If you were going for a new job and knew someone who worked there you'd ask them about it.
 

This is you on the 5th of July, transfer was going to be complete on the 7th.



The week after.



Later the same week.



Start of this week

Nice vault work Mooms, but where in any of those posts have I said anything that would make people hang onto my every word?

Also, I was only pointing out that there's seemingly this idea that Witsel's a big badman and shouldn't be trusted etc etc, when there's no evidence that's be the case?
