Reus does not want to sign, he wants Madrid or Bayern but Madrid are front runners according to nearly all Spanish media even some German.

I know. But just make it happen. It surely isn't harder than paying 153M €. Or just buy someone else. There are a lot of good players out there for ~50M €.

I dunno, I saw it on a respectable TV channel here, they don't show too much unreliable speculations. Their source is probably Spanish media and other world-wide news but I am convinced this is real if Bale wants it.

I'd like De Gea to stay, is it true he wants to leave? Even so, him + 120M € is still absolutely ridiculous. I'd say him + 70M € is the highest we should pay. And even that is questionable.

I dunno, have you seen someone pay 153M € for a player so far? Let's say 5 club in the world can pay it, why haven't they? Surely they know something better than a single club, don't you think?

This isn't only about right now. We are probably paying from our sponsorship deal with Adidas. That is a one time deal and when that money runs out, we are out of our depth. We can't even spend 100-150M € for entire window in the future if this amount of money spent now.

We didn't even get paid this money for Ronaldo when we sold him to RM. We shouldn't act like them, they're the mindless spenders, not us. RM is surely ******** us. We can't let them hit us with our own weapon. This is not the way to the success. I hate it when I see this.

Until they kick lumps out of us, probably not the best game to come into.


I'd be fine with the club paying 100m for bale because well it's not my money but we'd look like mugs if we never went on to win a couple of titles and challenged for the CL.

What? There has been nothing concrete coming from anywhere about this, just paper bollocks as Jan is coming round. Bale has said he is happy in Spain, Bales agent has rubbished the rumours himself to one of the journos on Sunday Supplement this morning. And the DDG talk again is just paper bollocks coz he has not signed a new contract as of yet. The Addidas deal is not a 1 time deal its spread over a number of years with the chance to negotiate a longer deal for more money. And with our Sponsorship and Merchandice we can easily spend 100-150M euros this window and a few afterwards especially when we are in the CL as well. The club have some very good financial and money making men there, who will work out if we can afford him or it makes sense to. Adidas could even fund some of the transfer in a bonus type payout.

Exactly its not our money and if we can afford it and makes sense to the club we will. But its all talk atm. Think he would be great tbh and would suite LVGs 433 system down to the ground. Think we will defo be challenging in the next few years.
 
All setup for an arsenal push for 3rd, we struggle away, they're beating the hammers and will beat the saints while we'll drop points away at stoke.

Don't think we will tbh. With players coming back and if we play like we did today for 60 mins feel confident we will beat Stoke. Arsenal will struggle and continue to drop points and end up struggling to 4th like the they do most years. 3rd is ours imo, we will get better just cant see the rest improving that much.

We have to keep players fit to improve, our defenders get fit and most of our midfielders are injured, the midfielders will return and the defence will get injured like a never ending cycle.

Arsenal are just within 3 points of us i think, **** knows how we've let that happen.

I think we will be fine once our Midfielders are fit really not worried tbh. Hopefully can get a player or 2 in Jan as well. Still think Arsenal will have a meltdown they usually do around feb/march time when they crash out of Europe and the cups.

Two things are certain in this world. We all have to die and Arsenal have to finish forth. So don't worry.

That's true, don't think 3rd and 4th matters much tbh anyway apart from needing to qualify for the group stages.
 
Rojo and Januzaj to have late fitness test before Stoke game my mate just text me he read on one of the forums.

With our away record i woudn't be surprised if swansea, qpr and west ham took points off us, not easy away games them. Should be getting 9-12 points from the home games though.

We'll draw against west ham and have a **** up against a team we should beat ala leicester away, spurs away, villa away and west brom away.

Na think them perfomances have gone tbh. And with Shaw,Rafa,Smalling back and Herrera,Rojo,Januzaj possibly back for Stoke then the rest the game after. I think we will push on 2nd half of season, plus new signings.

Them performances/results happen throughout the season and on any random day.

Januzaj back for the bench makes no real difference it's Di maria's blinds we need fit. Need shaw though if we revert back to the 4, smalling for stoke would be nice also.

I agree just think they will be less frequent. Also Januzaj would of been good to have today in the 2nd half coz our whole midfield was shot. We need all players back tbh and im glad we should have them all back by new year. Yes Smalling for Evans!!!!!!
