Yevhen Konoplyanka

I read the other day he was going to Stoke.

Huge transfer for them if true.

Yeah, one of my close friends is a Stoke fan and would be absolutely buzzing if they pulled this deal off. A player WAY above their station IMO.

Fair play to Hughes if he pulls it off, he will have got him and Bojan for the total sum of 800k.

"Yevhen"? Lol :) Put a smile on my face

I watched Konoplyanka in uEL and he was losing the ball too much and looked far not consistent. Although long shots and technique skills were great.

Surely we're better to be on Sterling, KDB and maybe even Isco

I actually mixed him up with Yarmolenko from Dynamo Kiev, but Konoplyanka is indeed a good player, even better than Andrey. Could play both a supportive and more atacking inside role. We should go for him before somebody else snatches him

Just like Milner, he's not available on a free. He'll demand an obscene signing on fee and huge wages. Not good enough for us. We need to be buying first team players and demoting our first team players to squad players not bringing in more mediocre players.

If those fees won't count to FFP as mentioned above, then you'd guess it's a free transfer for us. The wages won't be as big and remember we have offloaded and will offload big wages so it's neither a problem.

He doesn't seem to be a "medicore" player, he would add something new to our team, his speed, runs, shots, etc. It's beter to sign him on free rather than buy Isco and Firmino for 30m+ each so we have more same-typed players, who are furthermore a spanish and a south-american.

Would take him over Navas in a heartbeat.

Arnautovic Bojan Konoplyanka

That's an impressive "3" in a 4-2-3-1, if Hughes could dig a striker out from somewhere he might have quite a team.

So now Konoplyanka moves to Sevilla FC officialy. I feel that he'll strike there.

 

[City_Sean]

Seems as if he's off to Sevilla, could be a good move for him.

Shaquiri(sorry if i spelt wrong) will be better anyway for us.
