Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
So what are going to be the biggest moves this transfer window?
Hazzard to EPL?
Falcao anywhere?
Higuain anywhere?
RVP to Man City or Barcelona?

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
Ironic: Some news that Atl Madrid may be forced to sell Falcao...to have money to pay him to FCPorto. That transfer was suppose to cost them 20M€ last year, and they have to pay another 20M€, +5 to 7M€ thanks to performance (goals + europe league trophy). He will do great playing for Chelsea or Man Utd, for example.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
City hotshot John Guidetti is apparently in Istanbul possibly talking with Galatasaray. i thought there were some big time clubs after him, bit surprising to see him in Istanbul.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
I think;
Hazard to City
Falcao stays unless there is a 55+ mil bid by a certain Spanish/English club
Higuain's situtation is really uncertain, Real seem to be keen on selling him but they must find a replacement first.
RvP could be Juve's return on signing big names in the transfer market(This is more hope than guessing)
If Toure leaves for Spain, he will return to Barcelona. Can Barcelona afford him, that's another question.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
I don't see the wisdom in getting rid of Higuain but I'd happily take him on United if he were to be sold. They deserve us a gift after fleecing us for Ronaldo.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
Lol Madrid pay 90 million for Ronaldo. I'm sure Man U wasn't too upset. Man U needs to do something big.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
You buy 3 strikers for Benzema's price and they give you like 20-25 goals a season and cost you 90 mil together. Ronaldo alone has scored 146 goals in 3 seasons and 60 in this season alone, his worth cannot be estimated in money terms.

not really a random dude but Yann M'Vila is french and in the most recent reports, the only club he's being linked to now is Arsenal.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
To be fair, those "random french dudes no one has heard of (Sagna, Koscielny)" have turned into some of the best players in the EPL at their positions. If Wenger can keep replicating that, I'm totally fine with doing that again this summer.
I think we'll either see some really big names, or some really anti-climactic transfers like Gael Givet (fits the trend of aging French center backs like Silvestre and Squillaci).

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
Despite winning the Champions League, I think Chelsea is gonna buy lotta new players (again)
Falcao to CFC is a lock IMO. Hazard's gonna announce his new club tomorrow, won't be surprised if it were Chelsea after all .. Belgian press mentioned Lukaku+cash possibly going to Everton for Fellaini

They have to. This run was something special, and it certainly won't happen anytime soon. They need an overhaul.
Also, some reports say that Man City have intervened in the M'Vila transfer.

RVP to Man City? Modric to ManUtd?
Interested to see where Cavani goes. Probably CFC.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
I am hoping that Falcao goes to Chelsea. Drogba is probably leaving and Torres can't be your only striker. Go get Falcao

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
As great a player as he is, I don't think Falcao's going to be our priority this summer. For the money he's going to cost, we are probably looking at the likes of Hazard (who's going to make an announcement later today), Hulk, Modric, Jovetic and even Lucas Moura. The club and the fans still have great belief in Torres that's almost hard to believe, and truthfully wingers and Lamps' replacement are bigger priorities.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
I like Hulk if you are playing a 2 striker formation because he absorbs the defense with his strength and dribbling and can set up Torres for easy goals. He is a very good player but he is more efficient in a 2 striker formation IMO

PSG is a strong possibility.

Re: Transfer Thread 3.0!
Players I've seen rumoured with Man Utd: Kevin Strootman, Eden Hazard, Shinji Kagawa (apparently went to Manchester to talk to SAF), Leighton Baines, Nathaniel Clyne, and to a lesser extent, Javi Martinez/Iker Muniain.
Would be thrilled to add a talent like Hazard but see him joining City instead (we'll probably know where he's heading in 9 hours or so). Knowing SAF with Berba/Owen leaving he'll probably want to add a centre forward too, don't see the value in paying a premium for a guy like Lewandowski. I like Welbeck a lot because of what he adds (movement, pace, link-up play), but Chicharito needs to be more involved next season.
