We would be stupid to buy this guy
I fail to understand why? Many players have issues off the field. Does not mean it'd affect him on the pitch. Giggs, Rooney & many other players have extra marital ventures. Tbh it's got feck all to do with what they do on the pitch. As long as they're not touching up 15 years olds, it has nothing to do with anyone else.
Game needs characters, guy is a tad mental & our fans would very possibly love him!

He isnt, not in terms of cuntishness. He provokes of course, but i never thought that he is a Diego Costa cnut the few times i saw him.
remind me when costa bedded a teamates wife then when said teamate refused to shake his hand he posted pictures of the guys kids wearing shirts with costa written on the back - just to show what a total prick he is
I honestly think thats a bit more cuntist than diving about and throwing the odd tantrum on the pitch
your entitled to your opinion over which is worse but if you think its costa then your certainly not somebody who I share much in common with

I preferred Morata if we're going by striker links from the Serie A

I just discussed on the pitch things, not off the field. Sure he is an idiot, but that is the past.

What about his arguments with Ronaldinho and Oswaldo. Plus getting the capticancy just to sign a contract. I'd rather not have a player like that who seems certain to cause problems.

We should throw all our millions at Dybala instead

If you read about this there's two stories. They divorced because Maxi Lopez cheated on her, than she dated Icardi and now they're married. You have no idea when they began dating, it might have been after Icardi had move to Inter. How is that horrible behavior and worse than Costa exactly? It's two adults that like each other and got married. It sounds nothing like the Terry-Bridge thing.

Osvaldo is a guy who argues with everyone and doesn't get along with team mates. He moves around a lot.

What's this Ronaldinho thing?

People looking for role model figures instead of quality footballers never ceases to amaze me.

The article on the previous page says Icardi started arguing with Ronaldinho at Barcelona and got kicked out for it

Attitude and Wanda Nara aside, does anybody know how he plays stylistically? Would he be a fit?

Sounds like a drama filled news article to me. Journos love to churn them out. Get a pic of team mates having an argument in training and they bust a nut yet it's the most natural thing to happen. Testosterone filled environment, everyone competitive, most of them with big egos, see each other every day. Of course players will clash but they also realize why they clash. Players who don't speak their mind do it because they are too scared and those are the players you don't want.

Hardly involved in the game and goes completely missing when he isn't scoring IMO. Haven't seen him that often though.

He isnt as bad as Diego Costa
He's way way worse than Costa. His decision making is amateur level poor and dont get me started about his egoism. Frustrating player to watch at times. One of his team mates wanted to punch him last year when he had the chance to pass in a 3 vs 2 situation but opted to go for glory and f..d up. He's done that countless of times. If we do get him we're throwing away money > Literally

He doesn't want to come from the sounds of things and on top of that he's erratic and a bit of a headcase.

We're all missing what's really important here; how hot is she?

Edit: Not very. Looks like a young Angus Deaton with peroxide blonde hair and fake titties.

Conclusion: Questionable judgement skills. Do not want.

Did this idiot realy write in his autobiography that he's gonna send 100 argy killers at inter fans? :wenger:

edit:

This is what he wrote in his book about curva nord

I am ready to face them one by one. How many are there? 50, 100, 200? OK, record my message and let him listen: I’ll bring 100 criminals from Argentina who’ll kill them where they stand, then we’ll see.

:lol::lol:

What's that about? The history with how he met his wife?

More generally, I'm of the view that Icardi and Dybala will each end up at Real and Barca, as their new no9s, just not sure which one to which club.

Watched the game today, apparently it's because they think he lied about something in his book.

I really don't think Icardi is so good to end up at Spanish big two.

Come on, guys. Which of us hasn't written a furious autobiography in which we threaten a large group of unidentified people with being killed by another large group of criminals from Argentina. It's the modern world. Get with it, grandad(s).

Which Strikers U24 would you rather?
Maybe one day he will, it's always hard to make predictions this early, but he does seem like a classic number nine, and a bit too 'limited' to lead the line at somewhere there. I think he actually came from Barcelona's B team didn't he? I think he was kicked out. :lol:

I still don't get why though, what made him write that about 100 Argentinian criminals in his autobiography in the first place?
