Sadio Mane would be great anywhere in the premier, especially Liverpool who could use a striker since Benteke is going and Sturridge can't remain healthy

bull, it says the exact opposite. Everything was set for Liverpool but then he fired his agent and cancelled the Move to Liverpool.

Re: Transfer Thread 10.0 - 2016 Summer Window
Thoughts on Ricardo Rodriguez ? I know he's got a nice left foot and he's good offensively but how is he defensively there ?

Re: Transfer Thread 10.0 - 2016 Summer Window
He has had a pretty bad season.
Offensively not as effective as in past year and defensively hella shaky. Not sure why he didnt perform up to the standard he set in 14/15...maybe lack of motivation or something

Rodriguez was #1 LB in the world for someone on this forum.
You know his name, right? I know, you do.
Dude is hilarious. I hope he comes back. Poor guy.
And third best LB was Baba Rahman based on him lmfaooo

Arsenal looking to sign Vardy, apparently. Decent sources reporting it.
Not sure if he'll want to leave, but it seems they're willing to trigger his release clause.

I think so too, but you never know. I know Vardy is a good striker but I also think it's a stylistic mismatch. Arsenal like to pass the ball around the park and hold on to possession, Vardy is a striker that thrives on long passes and running in behind.
Looks like Zlatan to United is confirmed too, happening in the next few days according to Sky.

Zlatan to Man U, just wow. Reunited with Mourinho. So Wenger...you better not think Giroud, Walcott, and whenever the heck Welbeck is enough to lead the line.

Premier League.
Also it will be probably end up as a 2-year contract so it's not impossible he will get a last shot at CL with ManUtd in 2017-18. Mourinho is usually great in his 2nd season so who knows.
Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Kevin Garnett, Toni Kroos, Pep Guardiola, Ernst Happel, Joachim Löw.

Yeah, but Zlatan is still pretty good despite being that age. Also doesn't change the fact Wenger needs to have a better guy leading the line.

I don't disagree with the stylistic clash but I think Wenger is shifting some of the tactics. With Granit and Vardy, you have a long ball connection that they can take advantage of vs stronger teams. We've been working too hard to get goals. Ozil can thread the needle and hit Vardy for some better looks. If this happens, it makes some sense cause the striker market isn't very strong.

Re: Transfer Thread 10.0 - 2016 Summer Window
We don't get the space leicester do and dont get to counter attack as much because teams just sit back on us , its a weird fit for him having to create space instead of having it already.
1. I wonder how leicester will react to us paying the fee
2. I wonder if Wenger going for it in the short term mean he's retiring next year?
3. It's going to be funny watching Vardy not get 80% of the penalties he got this year and then the media subsequently calling him a diving cheat just because he's in an Arsenal shirt now.

Re: Transfer Thread 10.0 - 2016 Summer Window
It looks like Vardy is leaving. I thought Leicester is only 2 hours away from London and all the players are so happy in your team. Why did your best player just leave like that?
Oh I forgot. Leicester has so much money too

You do realise that some of the Leicester players live further away than the 2 hours it takes to get to London don't you?
How do you know what success they can repeat? Did you know they were going to run away with the league this year?
Leicester has money - did you know that?
But most of all maybe every player isn't like you would be, maybe they are happy being paid an incredible wage and playing in a team where they are having fun.
unlike you I would be surprised if more than 1 of the principal players left the club this season and maybe none.
No idea what you are talking about. Too much beer?
These are star players. They had a great fairytale this season. They are famous. They want to go out clubbing, partying. They are suppose to take their cars to go to London and come back in 4 hours or so?
Your coach said, his goal is to finish top 10 next season. Ask your coach.
Leicester has money. Yes. But London clubs have a lot more.
