January Transfer Thread 2020

As far as I am aware the Baller brothers are triplets and not quadruplets

James Rodriguez being heavily linked today.

Thoughts...

Quality player but is he injury prone?
28 years old still has years in him

 

[Zatara]

He's on £270k pw at Real Madrid.

Take it as not happening then.

They would subsidise his wages or lower the fee.

 

[Brisan123]

We have after Russian star according to my source. Didnt tell more, on a bender I assume.

Can you get alcohol in prison

 

[CielosGrises]

If we have money for Rodriguez surely it could be spent better elsewhere. As always, depends on the deal - don't break the bank.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Nope to James Rodriguez, especially for that price.

We need younger, more mobile players

Hearing we are very interested in Willems at Newcastle on loan from Eintracht Frankfurt, Brands made a beeline for him after the game on Saturday, probably for the summer

Used to play for PSV

 

[Real_madras]

He's on £270k pw at Real Madrid.

Take it as not happening then.

Real may pay some of the wages, to get him off the books? But I doubt we'll get him, unless he is desperate to play for Carlo again?

James Rodriguez can run hot and cold. That's why he was loaned out to Bayern. I wouldn't spend that kind of money on a player that isn't consistent.

 

[Gilbert..]

I dont claim to be an expert but has he actualy done anything since that world cup a long time ago. Watched him a few times for real madrid and was very unimpressed with him. Anyone know any better. I havent watched enough of him.

It's less hot and cold and more injured and not injured. He's pretty consistently good when he's on the field. Bayern couldn't afford to pay what the fee was for a guy who might miss half the games. And honestly that's a real question for us too but unlike Bayern we can't just sign Coutinho instead.

 

[Toast]

Ruin the transfer window please Everton.

 

[mikel_88]

Would like us to go for Eberechi Oluchi Eze at qpr

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I mean, if we make James happen, then bloody hell

 

[Huyton Layne]

Has any current Colombian looked consistently good playing for their club team?
