Confirmed Signing Cenk Tosun

[blue to the bone]

Then what can Walsh do if he even blow this? He can't do anything right. Sack.

It's Besiktas changed the price. Nothin to do with walsh. Every thing else was agreed

 

[pacerized]

1. Besiktas 14

2. FC Porto 10

3. RB Leipzig 7

4. Monaco 2

are those team crap too?

Just give them the extra 2 million get the deal done and move on to the other positions we need filling before the window is over. Made the mistake with holding out on the Siggy deal and wasting the time we had

 

[Penno]

My favourite thing about Besiktas is how they sound like an badly wiped bottom

Hope we sign him but anyone who thinks this lads going to magically transform us is living in cloud cuckoo land. Midfield is why we are absolute toss, we don't have a single player who can keep hold of the ball... just tons of minimal talent grinders.

We could do with someone up front too who can hold the ball up and bring others into play. Calvert-Lewin wins headers, but just flicks them on to no one.

Anyway mates, I have been reading this forum since the rumors started; one thing that struck me is how arrogant some of fans here. I had lived in London for 4 year during my PhD years and never witnessed such a thing from Arsenal or Chelsea fans.

Yeah, Premier League is better than Turkish league as well as Portuguese, Croatian and Dutch leagues but this doesn't necessiate that a player who plays well in one of these leagues cannot play well in PL. We know that many players who play very well in La Liga (or Serie A) can't succeed in PL, this doesn't mean La Liga or Seria A is under-qualified - it means they just don't have what PL requires.

So when you consider Cenk Tosun for PL, don't get stuck to industrial football's prejudices (i.e., a player from Croation or Turkish is necessarily bad); just look at how he performed in CL and Turkish league and evaluate correspondingly. Cenk has a perfect finishing, strength, positional knowledge and work ethic; on the other hand, he isn't that effective when opposition parks the bus and he should be more aggresive when he is marked tightly.

A club who paid £16m to Niasse cannot really complain about paying £25m to Cenk. Anyway, the only reason I am 'okay' about selling Cenk is that we are up to financial fair-play regulations which is we cannot buy any players without selling one. Otherwise, I am sure we can get better offers for him at the end of season (considering a market where Van Dijk worths this much).

If this transfer happens I believe Everton fans will be happy and if not I know Besiktas fans won't be unhappy.

Cheers!

Cenk is a complete striker and if Cenk would play for an Ajax or a PSV, the club wouldn't sell him under the price of a 35 million euro. It's already sadly to see that Cenk will go to a crap of a team, if he joins Everton. Everton played [Poor language removed] against united..

Honestly done with these lads. When does Erdogan get around to restricting internet access?

 

[Azza]

So it's off...

 

[Jc74]

How many kopites in this thread pretending to be turks?

 

[Aries]

We should keep cenk and sell him to another club in the summer.

Please do.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Sounds like we are not going to budge so either they do or its off and we all move on.

 

[Petit]

Off.

 

[Ring master]

So it's off...

Sounds like we are not going to budge so either they do or its off and we all move on.

So no back up striker in mind? And yet koeman got called all kinds for it with the giroud saga.

 

[nsno-chris]

Don’t give the jarg Turkish yard dog a chance in hell

Leave him to rot in that third grade league
