what a team.

 

[Nymzee]

Hes a good player, but to call him a superstar is quite laughable, Rooney is a superstar.

Yeh I know he's good just confused me how he's the portrayed as the out of reach perfect defender by people who haven't watched a Napoli game.

 

[carolinablue232]

Could be a good move that, to test the waters with him. It's not too far fetched for us to be in for him, Leicester were in for him big time last summer and he ended up choosing Inter but obviously Walsh and his team at Leicester did all the background work on him so could be pushing this one on Koeman?!

Would Barbosa be able to get a work permit? He's hardly played for like a year.

 

[MasonLeeEFC]

I'm reading that as him basically acknowledging Giroud is numero uno for a striker but it's gonna be tough, and that we shouldn't expect the deals to be wrapped up as quickly as others.

Because guess what, these are a little harder to do...

Nail and head spring to mind mate....

I wonder that if we can't get Giroud, will he settle for someone else or go with what we've got?!

Good question, and I honestly don't know? Haha...

Willian?

Now that's more like it

Think we'll have other targets lined up matey.

Depends how long this one 'drags on'.

I honestly don't see Giroud leaving, if he does so, until late in the window.

So we may see some links to other players crop up in the meantime. They may well come to fruition as well, depending on how long we're willing to wait on Giroud.

Don't you start with my main man Christian.

 

[GlosBlue]

ALVARO RECOBA

I vaguely remember him scoring a couple of absolute screamers in one game for Inter. Italian football has nosedived since the heady days of the late 90s!

Ideally we need Giroud or a similar level striker well before the deadline. The first month is tough....

True.

But if it comes to it and we think we're in with a shot of getting our first choice in, we may be willing to hold out.

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Get Costa on loan until Athletico can buy him.

 

[Nymzee]

True.

But if it comes to it and we think we're in with a shot of getting our first choice in, we may be willing to hold out.

My issue is that the type of striker we want could completely change the way we play. I'm all for waiting for you'd want a bit of time to nail it in training.
