Nabil Fekir

Fekir for 30M or the FIFA merchant Zaha for 80m? :thinking::thinking::thinking::thinking::thinking:

Get this guy

On board with that. Zaha is pure crazy talk for 80.

Aulas not extracting maximum value for a top player?

Heā€™s crocked. Avoid

Liverpool said no for a reason. Ticking time bomb.

Straight swap for Mustafi? :henry2:

Heā€™s got a year left on his deal, besides most likely another ITK spouting the usual.

He clocks up a good amount of games per season tbh, for arguments sake if that figure was genuine heā€™s more than worth the punt.

Heā€™d instantly be our most technical and dynamic attacker if he signed. You do worry why the price tag is low if that Twitter account is to be believed. Even in the last year of his contract heā€™s still worth a lot more than EUR 30M - it could only be that low if the player has significant injury issues

Liverpool must have found a serious injury concern when doing the medical brcause they ended negotiations and never looked back.

Also the reasoning wasnā€™t really given. This is usually because they do not want to ruin the playerā€™s name from potential future moves. But one can only speculate itā€™s because heā€™s crocked.

If heā€™s available for ā‚¬30m then heā€™s worth a punt IMO

Did Liverpool pull back? I thought they reduced their offer by like 15m? Unless that was a ploy to save face because they knew Lyon would say no?

I miss the days when we had good crocks. If we could pay ā‚¬30m for 2007-2012 van Persie, Iā€™d do it, so surely this is worth the gamble when the alternative is Iwobi, Ozil or Mkhitarayan.

Have any of you ever watched him play? :smiley: Not sure if this is worse than ā€œweā€™re too posh for Carrascoā€, friends, Carrasco and Fekir are both twice as good as all the wide players in our squad were last season and the only thing preventing them from being that good here would be us. for various reasons. And for that money? Easy go. Resale value will prob. immediately be higher once they pull on our jersey anyway (if we donā€™t fuck up our business as usual lol)

We need a winger tho. This crippled french aint one.

We donā€™t need a winger. We need better defenders.

Unless the winger is free, Iā€™m not interested.

Yes we do. Itā€™s possible to need more than one thing at once.

A bit like saying we donā€™t need oxygen lol

No, itā€™s really not :slight_smile:

But when you canā€™t afford both, you go for what will make the biggest difference. And that isnā€™t a winger.

Unless theyā€™re free, in which case I will welcome them with open arms :slight_smile:

A Jakey classic right there.

Thatā€™s not what you said though. You said that we donā€™t need a winger, which is different to saying we need both but ranking a defender as being of a higher priority.
