Re: Summer Transfer Rumours Mk.VI

You can't be a pure poacher with Arsenal. The CF helps a lot with buildup and is expected to make good passes in final 1/3. Remember, Arsenal play a more direct version of tiki taka.

Gomez wouldn't have worked at all. He can barely get his feet sorted unless it's clear shot or tap in.

Bayern a classy club??? Laughing

I won't take the time to list things... but they block everyone they want to keep from moving even if that player is desperate.

And let's not forget them leaking the Goetze deal right before the CL semi game with Madrid and inviting both Goetze and Lewa (allegedly) to the CL winning party.

No denying in that at all.

Gomez is a brilliant poacher. Can easily score 30 goals with the creativity Fiorentina have. But Arsene would always prefer someone like Higuain. His work ethic and link up play probably won him over.

That's why Heynckes preferred to use Mandzukic over Gomez.

So in one day.

Gomez to Fiorentina official
Villa to Atletico Madrid official
Poli to AC Milan official
Mkhitaryan to BVB official

Who's next? Alcantara? Cavani?

by S Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:26

Ogbonna coming to Juve to make FIFA 14 Juve stupendously good at defending.

by sportsczy Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:28

Oh how people's memory is either lacking for very short when it comes to Bayern Laughing

by Onyx Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:28

Illarramendi, Cavani and Ogbonna in the next few days.

by M99 Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:29

If Ibra joins Madrid then Real Madrid will be the greatest team in history in FIFA 14 Laughing

can almost buy all of the players you mentioned for the price of Cavani

ridiculous when you think about it

by S Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:30

Instead of saying classy let me rephrase and say Bayern are very respectful towards their players.

Bayern facilitating a move for Gomez by accepting a lesser bid is very respectful indeed.

by M99 Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:30

Probably Damiao too, smart business, good replacement for Cavani.

by sportsczy Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:30

No Zlatan possibility. Here's his agent Raiola yesterday: "110% certain that Ibra is staying with PSG. He will make a great duo with Cavani. If Mourinho wants him at Chelsea? No he is staying 110%. A return to Italy? Yes, but in 10 years."

Reports from Canada that Ryan Nelsen's Toronto FC - next to bottom of the Eastern Conference in MLS - could be about to sign Uruguay striker Diego Forlan. The 34-year-old is currently with Internacional.

by Tomwin Lannister Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:31

Ibra - Cavani

Ffs :bow:

Can't even... just.... ffs wow.

Normally clubs don't get two elite strikers together, and I mean the high end of Elite.

Gomez was hellbent on joining Fiorentina. Bayern accepted a bid from Napoli after they grew impatient since Fiorentina was waiting to sell Jovetic before signing Gomez, but Gomez made it clear he would move nowhere but Fiorentina.

by Ganso Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:34

No way that it was only 5.1M, there is something under the table going on there Laughing

Arsenal and Spurs offered twice that amount.

then again you have to look at another point,Barcelona were desperate to get rid of Villa since there is a clause in his contract that he would earn 11M starting this season

by M99 Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:35

sports you honestly believe Raiola lol?

I fail to see how Lavezzi-Pastore-Lucas-Ibra-Cavani is going to play together. Someone has to leave.

by Juveman17 Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:35

Tom imagine Chiellini manhandling both Cavani and Ibra Proud

by S Mon 8 Jul 2013 - 17:39

Not that impressed that Napoli are trying to get Cavani replaced with Damaio.

Actually, Cavani=63 m

Gomez=16m
Villa=5.1m
Poli=6.5m
Mkhitaryan=25m
Abidal-free

So yea Cavani costs more than all the major players who moved today.
