Vidal's available these days, just saying.

Been poor all season and most of last. Would cost a shed loads in wages and fees. Bayern fans can’t wait to get rid. Not like there’s a shortage of top CMs out there atm all different but could work with Pogba and Matic. Sports Witness did a good article about Nicolo Barella from Calgeri who Di Marzio linked with us start of the window. Ribalta is close with his agent and was close to taking him to Juve a few windows ago. Would be a great replacement for Pogba. Plays the exact same style/role for Calgeri. Would be available for about 50m euros and is just been called up to the Italian national team. Looks a real player at 21years of age. Had 2 great games against Juve last 2 seasons.

Interesting Mourinho saying we will still make a big signing in the Summer.

Cagliari is asking for 30m, don't know where did you get 50. Juve is asking for him, Cagliari want 30, Juve are offering 15+2 players from Primavera. Negotiations are apparently ongoing...
 
Milinkovic Savic. What a player having another great game for Napoli atm scoring again. Got to be a target I hope.

Was reported by Sports Witness from a few Italian outlets. We would defo get charged more than 30m euros at Utd!
 
TBH, could see that happening... :D
Milinkovic Savic scored another one. Amazing player.
 
Milinkovic Savic would be a good signing and has said Mourinho is his favourite coach in the world which could be helpful. I feel as though a very talented 6'4 midfielder could appeal to Mourinho
 
Savic ended up scoring again. Apparently Lazio president has quoted 100m euros when Juve enquired. Woody excepts the challenge :)
 
"Take Daniel Radcliffe. Starts off with the first Harry Potter film, gets 150 grand. Then the fourth, he's getting 35mil. No one says, 'No, no, give him 150,000, that's what he got for the first film.' So why should it be different for sportsmen?” - Sean Dyche on Sanchez' reported wages.

It's hard not to like that husky voiced, ginger Mourinho. Honest, hard working, gracious in victory & defeat (from some of the post match interviews I've caught) and now he's coming out with stuff like this.

I only see one out & out 9 there. Not bad for a donkey.
 
I think we're over stocked for the likes of an Ozil or Griezzmann now with Sanchez coming in. If you bring either of them in as well as Sanchez it's going to the point where you will have to be giving someone a lot less game time as there will be so much completion for places.

We still want to develop the likes of Rashford and Martial but have quality also. With Sanchez we have just the right balance for attacking options imo.

Obviously if Mata goes in summer a space for Ozil does become available.

I'd really rather us went for Dybala though for that striking alternative to Lukaku. Although they are both too good not to be playing majority of games so probably would not work out well.

One year he might actually turn up in a big game too. ;).

But let's not hope for too much for that £100 million. Baby steps.

It was 75m scouse. Just to correct you. :P

Lukaku hasn't been great against top 6 in terms of goal return but I think he has definitely shaken off that lame lazy tag people has given him.

Plus he has scored plenty of goals generally so we would not be where we are without him.

Cesc and De Bruyne doing well considering everyone has a 1 and 2 year head start on them, for a big target man sized striker Lukaku has got a nice cross on him and can really pick a pass
 
Not how Everton sell it.

And they're the Mersey Millionaires who know about these things! The fact they haven't got a pot to **** in, in reality and are disgracefully being helped out by that fat mess Anderson and the City council for the still prentendy new ground, all at the taxpayers expense, whilst they make cutbacks elsewhere in essential services the City down to Central Government cutbacks, doesn't come into it. How there's not a public enquiry into him, Moshiri and all the backhanders F only knows?!!!!!

But that's for another thread and another time. *Calms.

Spot on. Some people here seem to have been playing FM too much with these ideas to bring 20 more Ozils and Griezmans. You're already overcrowded up top as it is. In the summer I'd expect a right back and a proper midfielder who can free up Pogba a little bit.
 
Need to secure the top 4 place before any 'names' can be talked about.

Which for anyone not called Manchester City is far from a given as I type.
