James Rodriguez - gone to Bayern on loan

[Ajm1985]

I am just trying to figure out what will he bring to the team which we are missing. In terms of attacking mids, I think we have our hands full with Silva, KDB, Sterling, Navas, Nasri vying for 3 places. He would just be a luxury signing IMO. I would rather take Isco as he is a grafter and can play CM.

Regarding his 13 Goals and 13 assists last season, I bet if KDB played there he would have double the goals/assists.

I just think for Pep to complete the team, we would need a very good right winger, CM and both full backs. Please let me know what do you think.

Fair enough. He would be a luxury, my point about KDB was that he has been overplayed; if we had a similar player, with similar abilities, there wouldn't be a reliance on KDB to play every game. I think Kev is absolutely superb and in no way should be bin him. Of the players you listed, I would much prefer to have James over Nasri.

Given the choice, Isco would be a better fit but with James reportedly falling out with Real I think it would be remiss of us to not show interest if he was available.

A Gundogan, or Weigl for CM, good winger, 2 younger fullbacks and another striker would be good. Unless Sterling starts practising his finishing.

Play Sterling on the right wing, sign Pogba, Alaba and Lahm in the summer. Job done.

Lahm?

 

[KCblue]

Lahm?

Yeah can't see him ever leaving Bayern tbh

 

[sk3ptical]

he is not worth no wear near 100 mil

Defo not worth 100mil. I think the new PL cash will over inflate any player we want though.

His apartment is for sale in Madrid and now this morning El Confidential are linking him with a move to City.

 

[waspish]

He's shite and lite wait! We are being linked to him because he's if to the scum.

Shit? No certainly not that's a crazy statement. Light weight? So is Silva.

Bad attitude supposedly and not exactly a Pep player.

No, thanks.
