I don't have a problem with players being some level of a tit if they have talent, but Icardi is way over the tit threshold for me. I wouldn't touch him.

signing icardi would be even stupider than it is realistic, and that's saying something

 

[T LEAFE]

Bring a blue home

At last 3 new signings

Ive personally never turned down a tit... but I agree... Icardi a bit much

I’d sign him so Gomes can steal his wife...

 

[Bob Latchford]

Any chance we could end up with Icardi?

more chance we'll end up with Bicardi

A mixture of experience and youth (who we can eventually boo out the club like the rest of them)

TBH I'd rather spend £40m on Zouma and £80k pw. The Belgian is the better player right now, but he's only going to deteriorate with age and you'd expect Zouma to improve.

Zouma would be my choice too but doesn’t look likely

I can understand that. For me, it doesn't really matter if they are a tit. Many Footballers are. As long as it doesn't impact on their Football and they do the business, they're alright with me.

That said, sleeping with your team-mates missus is over the line and I'm not sure I'd want that around the squad if I was manager.

That's all well and good, but they still need to get bolasie into to ping balls over his head

Why would they pay £40m when they can have Tosun for half that. And his stats are better.

Only got a year left on his Chelsea deal hasn't he ?
I think we could still get him.

Realize you weren’t asking me, but I have watched him play several times at Hoffenheim, and while I do rate him would not value him that high.

Works hard, is strong, and passes reasonably well in addition to being a goal threat. Can he adapt to the English league - not sure. 25-30 would have been more reasonable.

For similar money it appears Kean or Leao offer better value.

Also have to think, given that he is Brazilian that if Bernard or Richarlison really thought he was all that they might have mentioned him to Silva.
