Transfer Rumour Axel Witsel

[EFCPaul]

I really want him but this tedious saga has really gotten under my skin, want it resolved one way or another by Tuesday.

True. It's exactly like when Sarah Morris said she'd kiss me in the disabled toilet of McDonald's on Edge Lane and then 15 years later I'm still waiting and when I ask her about it on Facebook she's like:

"Who is this??"

And I'm like

"The lad with the Rockport from 15 years ago"

And she's like

"How did you find me under my married name?"

And I'm like

"Let's not talk specifics, Sarah. People really need to use the toilet and I don't think they're going to let me stay here for much longer."

It's a joke really.

If were competing with Juve then surely people would be AMAZED if we got him over them.

Paying more than them is neither here nor there if its €8mil. It would still be quite a coup.

I think Witsel would be excellent as a box to box player with Carvalho as the defensive shield...i then also think Koulibaly would be ideal behind Carvalho mopping up and driving past him.

These 3 signed and a keeper + LW/ST and we have a top 4 team.

I had a not dissimilar experience in Suriname ...which used to be called Dutch Guiana.

15p is Niasse's market price. Let's get on the phone.

Fixed that for you.

 

[faddy the blue]

Forget this one. Just like Mata

 

[Eggs]

...thread opened with a transfer imminent on 1st July, it's now 1st August. Ah well.

 

[Darren Higgs]

Lock it up nothing to see here

Best have a lie down

What he did do at Zenit was completely [Poor language removed] up the best midfield I've seen from a 'lower' European league for ages. Denisov-Zyryanov-Shirokov was amazing, Danny as well.

Sorry, that was a little off topic but it's true.

Witsel is alright, he's a pretty decent box to box player in the Dembele mould as pointed out. I think he's due a good season. No doubt if he signs he'll be injured and or gash

To be fair, he'd struggle to eff up our midfield.

Until he goes elsewhere we have a chance.

This goes for Lionel Messi too.

Fan names random date that club must adhere to...

 

[balggy]

One of the reasons I would be willing to let Lukaku go is that he doesn't want to be here/ his heart isn't in it.

So on that logic, what's the point in wanting Witsel? Zenit have accepted our offer, I'm sure we are offering loads of money, time to swerve him I think

 

[kithnou]

Saved £120k in wages. I say well done by the club for holding out until August .

Dear Axel Witsel, sign for Everton or do one, you massively overrated bell.
