Summer Transfer Window 2019

[The Penny Blue]

Per game, Thuram is 4th, but far behind Ben Arfa, Saint Maxim, and Atal. He's a good player, but I've always been slight underwhelmed by him. Doesn't seem to take care of the ball very well, seems a bit clumsy maybe. But he's young. He's also another left sided player.

The list I saw was from the middle of the season but is 10th across the top 5 leagues according to this: https://www.footballwhispers.com/blog/ten-best-dribblers-in-europe

But I’d disagree with the last part. He is pretty clean on the ball and he can play anywhere in the front 3 albeit he played primarily from the wing last season

I'm fine with Barca hand offs.

If Alena is a la Masia graduate then all good in my book x

So was Sandro.

Played quite a number of games last season but only one Spain u21 cap which is odd.

Need more jarg rumours, the Welbeck one is already going stale

Pretty clean on the ball ?
What does that mean ?

Asking for a friend like.

Obligatory video for the nothing rumour:

Posted about him when I was watching Barca vs Eibar he was damn impressive as a sub on the left wing

Was that Oumar?

And Chalov looks wonderful yes, but what is it about Russian players in our league? I can’t think of many who have been a success. Think Bily for us, and then there was Shevchenko, one of the worlds best strikers allegedly, the Prem turned him into a mediocrity. (I use the term ‘Russia’ loosely, to include all the old USSR states)

As Ukraine and Russia have essentially been in a state of war for the last 10 years, I think "loosely" is the wrong phrase!

Never heard of this Chalov, what is the source/story here?

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Alena is a massive yes!

 

[blue to the bone]

What are we their B team, their first team ain't good enough so why would we want their crap cast offs, NSNO

Like digne and Gomes?

No idea. As you can see, I was reacting to a video quoted in post 11419
