Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Nymzee]

Anyone here watch much Bundesliga?

Would Mario Goetze be worth a shout?

He's finished and he's wildly average this season anyway.

Na, swerve Bakambu. I watch La Liga and he's a above average striker but not the quality we need. He doesn't run or try to win the ball back. Basically a poacher with a fair bit of pace

..yep, watched a few clips which were really inconclusive. As you say, looks a goal poacher but little to demonstrate wider CF play.

He's had one pretty good season in his career so far.

We haven't missed our chance.

We were told flat-out - as every other club was - before and during the Jan window that Burnley wouldn't be selling him during this season.

He's very interested in a move to us. We're very interested in him.

We'll see what happens.

How do you know that?

How do you know that?

I trust the person I got the info off back in December, in January and also in the last few weeks.

Incidentally they've posted on here a few times.

I also trust the journos that first mooted us as favourites for the lad back in Jan.

I also, weirdly enough, work with several Burnley fans - two of whom are well connected at the club - all of whom back-up the story of Burnley telling clubs (inc us) that he wasn't for sale this season.

There's definite interest (conf. by Koeman himself) from us and him. Whether other clubs are now in for him who knows, but we've certainly not missed the boat.

LB to replace LB

Whom is he

Left back who plays for schalke, been tracked by Chelsea in the past. When I saw him vs Borrusia Munch-and'glad'back, he looked good. Built like a tank IIRC.

Rather have Jonas hector from the BuLi if im honest. Maybe take Howedes form schalke for centre half.

Max Meyer and Goretzka also pleasing for me if we have any chance.

Some cracking talent in that league, weigl and brandt another two. The type of players we need to invest in before they rocket to the £50m mark.

They'll already be £30m+ the lot of them.

If we get into a bidding war, then I think upwards of £35m. Hoping we can get a deal done ahead of any suitors (if we are watching any young talent), much like Wolfsburg did with bazoer.

He's got a metablolic disorder and hasn't played in months...

Yes exactly. He's finished now and when he had played he was underwhelming.

well not really.

he's 25.

He's got plenty of time to re-find his fitness and best form..

That being said, I don't think he'd be suited for the Prem.
