Isco

[MeatHunterrr]

Even though Madrid never use him, they will still ask for shed loads.

I think €25 million would be enough for him tbh. and that is not shed loads considering Isco is only 22 with lots of ability and potential. In that age you need to be playing week in week out. At Real he won't get that as they sign every summer new shiny toys.

Sell Javi Garcia, RIchards, Sinclair, Guidetti and possibly Milner to fund the deal.

Do you think Isco has wised up yet? Does he know we are the best club for him, just like last year...

I think it's being understated how well thought of he is at Madrid - he cost the 30 million euros for a start. He started 23 La Liga games and 6 Champions League games for them last season, including the last hour of the Champions League Final. I'm not sure he would have been in our starting lineup week in week out competing for a spot with Silva and Nasri. In comparison, Milner only started 12 PL and 3 CL and Navas 18 PL and 1 CL I know they are different players but it shows how much we tend to rely on Dave and Sami who have a lot more experience than Isco.

But you can also argue that Silva and Nasri was used heavily due to Jovetic being injured much of the season (who plays also in the same position).

Can't see him getting a look in now with Kroos signing?

Definitely, although I think Jovetic could fit into any position in our attack. We can only guess how much Jovetic would have featured and who it would have been at the expense of last season but I doubt we would have even been in for him had we signed Isco this time last year - again begging the question of who loses their place to accomodate Isco? Even though he's obviously been close to Pellegrini in the past, I'm not convinced he would drop Nasri or Silva in important games
