Transfer Rumour Axel Witsel

Rome wasn't built in a day ( other cliches are available ).

When in Rome.......................

Everyone's different mate. I reckon he'd be awesome for us. But fear my heart will be broken here.

On an unrelated note, I refuse to believe that Everton are waiting around twiddling our thumbs as this all pans out. I'd hope they are being kept up to date with it all, and will act accordingly.

Yep, I'm a firm subscriber to thinking that just because you can't see loads going on doesn't mean that it isn't.

It's been a while, but I've had a lot of fun with ten to two girls !

In the same way that I couldn't afford to be choosy back then, we, as a club, can't be too choosy now. If we're second or third choice, then so be it. All that matters is that they improve us, make us more competitive and, over the course of a few seasons, put us in a place where we're first choice because we're both successful on the pitch and have the necessary finances.

Ten to two girls were great. You didn't have to buy them a drink either

I've liked him a while mate. Was little surprised we were ever linked to him really, as i've seen him as being a level or 2 above where we currently are. Like he should be playing Champions League football really.

I don't see any Russian football though (obviously) so a lot is based on seeing him for Belgium where I like him a lot.

Oh yeah and from the Russian leagues - Dzagoev is available for 15m, two years younger and IMO anyway a level above Witsel ability wise.

But then again Russians don't exactly travel well...

Somebody on another forum said 2 days ago this was off. The same one who said this morning that Lukaku is 50/50.

Who said that mate?

Actually, scratch that, my mistake, not the same source and not as reliable.

I'm not overly worried just yet and i agree i can't/won't believe we are sat waiting for these 2 or 3 targets to say yes or no before we move on. I'm fairly optimistic that come the end of the window we will have signed a few players, improved the overall quality of the squad and hopefully made 1 or 2 big signings.
I appreciate optimism isn't aloud on this forum

When in Turin, more likely...

I'm really hoping we can still get this lad, a real top class talent and can't really blame him for taking his time deciding what will be his biggest career move.

 

[DaChunk]

did he sign?

 

[Pabbers]

Its not even a close choice on any level, Turin is beautiful.

Aye but he supposedly wanted to go to Naples - which is a toxic watse dump, and last year Milan which is arguably the ugliest city i have ever seen

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Zenit play Ufa on Saturday - that's a return trip of approx 4000km. It will be interesting if he makes the trip - If it was me I'd say no thanks Vlad I'm off to Waltonski.

Well, the slums of Naples is rank, like slums of Liverpool or Manchester.

But the coastline of Naples is absolutely stunning.
