Agreed. Think Chelsea are close to getting him now.Exeter Blue I am here said:Cobwebcat said:Would anyone have been unhappy if we had just paid the buyout clause for this guy two weeks ago and then concentrated on any further additions?
There are about 4 players per window that could significantly improve a team like we already have and are realistically available. One has already gone to bloody Monaco.
Once you go a level down its a gamble. I'm sure Garcia would do fine outside the top 7 teams in the Premiership and perhaps Maicon too but it's a waste of money for us. This guy is a sure thing, if we miss out to Chelsea again it's our own fault. If we get Cavani for significantly less than the buyout then Ill admit I underestimated Cheeky Chops.
This. Cavani is THE essential purchase of the summer for me. Letting Mourinho whisk him away would be a disaster - RVP all over again
Slap the money on the table ffs.

Unbelievable, we'll finish 4th
Willian went from Shakhtar to Anzi last season.
Shakhtar still have Douglas Costa and Taison on their books. They are a hot bed of footballing quality as proven by their performance in the Champions League
I'm sorry whilst he is a good player to call him one of the top midfielders in Europe is a bit Ott jut because he's signed for us

I don't think it is a guaranteed disaster: it all depends on what we do to compensate but I have wanted us to buy Cavani for two years now and he is my number one target for this window so I would be most unhappy to see him go to the Chavs. If Pellegrini comes in and predominatly uses 4-2-2-2, I see Cavani and Kun as an ideal pairing for the front two.
I do think the asking price is high but the money is not my problem. However, If we go to the release clause money, there is no guarantee that Chelsea won't match it and that he will not see them as a more attractive proposition.
On the whole London v Manchester debate, I'm Manc born and bred but I know London pretty well, having lived there at one point and having spent last 22 years living within 50 miles, and there is no denying that it is a fantastic city, on of the world's great cities. Culturally etc it offers way more than Manchester. However it not a place that I would want to live and nor is Surrey; I'm not a rich foreign football player with bags of spare time and money.
Manchester though is developing - once again - into one of the world's premier footballing cities.

I recon he's one of the top midfielders in Europe & so do plenty of people in the media who watch European football.
