Eh? He's Fred level, a busy, hard-working pest in the midfield but nothing remotely special. Not even Arsenal fans rate him as highly as you seem to.

Spend big now on a young CB and a RW ,plus with the youth coming through and Ole's dedication in promoting them,the Glazers may not need to spend big for atleast three windows.
Its a tempting concept for them but with Covid still very much a concern then obviously they would be wary.

Do you mean Upamecano & Sancho/Badashile & Sancho?
Yep.
This is a two summer project to get us challenging. They’ll need to spend next summer too even if we do add Sancho and Upemecano. We still need 5 players In my opinion to have a young squad competing at the highest level. It’s probably 200m net over the next two years. The annoying thing is without COVID we’d have had no problems doing it.
It s better for RBL to sell now for a fee higher than the 42 million or less Bayern will pay next year.

medical today
The feck did I just read?
Most Arsenal fans I know would get rid of him in a heartbeat.

Lazy journalism.
'United could opt to pay up Dortmund's asking price as they fear other clubs will get in the race. We shall wait and see."
Brilliant. I can do it as well.

Genuinely quite interesting. Doesn't have to go through a two week quarantine as long as he is registered as a United player before Holland play a match this week. Maybe that is part of the reason why this deal was completed so quickly
Not even a sniff of a Lingard rumour? So much for his new super agent getting him a big move abroad.
What a strange rule. You’d have thought it wouldn’t matter, so long as he’s a United player before travelling.
Either way, can’t see there being a problem getting a medical done in the next 7 days.
Not serious.
Sounds like the medical is happening today/tomorrow. Can see this being announced tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest now.
He'll need to be a free agent to get a "Big" move.
No-one is wellying 15-20m for him, and 100k a week. And beating 100k a week at that, as he already gets it reportedly.

He had 1 year left on his contract. The signed him on a deal with a lower release clause that comes into play next summer to ensure they didn’t lose him for free. That’s the move of a club that is preparing to sell him next year. They could sell him now for more money than they are guaranteed next year.
didn't James whine about the weather in Munich? And now he's going to Liverpool?
I realize he has a connection with Carlo, but surely James could've made one last big move? He only just turned 29 so he isn't near the end of his career. Everton really the best he could do or are they offering him an absurd wage?
If it was the James from the world cup yonks back maybe!

They’ve signed him twice!
So, anything new about the James transfer?
It wouldn’t be a transfer of the window. What is more, it will most likely change nothing - Everton already was a “top half of the table team”, and they will remain one
Its not though,is it ?
Going from Madrid and Bayern to Everton will be an eye opener regarding quality of teammates.
Thanks

Are Barca binning their entire team? Messi, Suarez, Rakitic, Vidal. What's going on with Coutinho? Are they at risk of doing a AC Milan and going through a terrible period?
Barca binning midfielders are starting to worry me as this will give funds to the dippers to get Thiago
If they get the high earners off their pay check, Coutinho stays. Building on Griezmann, Dembele, Coutinho, Frenkie de Jong, Ansu Fati etc..
They will get him sooner or later, 30m is a steal
He’s tosh, like.
Hell, wasn't long ago he was the only bright star at this Arsenal team....The feck did I just read?
Most Arsenal fans I know would get rid of him in a heartbeat.
I have to admit i don't follow Arsenal at all, but i do remember a game vs us last season maybe, he dominated us.
Match thread was full of praise for him.
And he was very good, dynamic, always open for a pass, pressing left right and center.
I remember Pogba was wank that day and thinking to myself - i'd rather have this hairy dude then him.
For 16 millions, that's peanuts. Not worth a try?
Maybe not, i might be wrong.
Chelsea won't have it easy when getting a new keeper to compete against Kepa.

Apart from Messi, it's the right move to make. Suarez, Vidal and Rakitic are costing them a fortune in wages, yet not getting the right standard of output from them. Plus, they've brought in Pjanic who's another ageing CM, so there's only de Jong who's a relatively young player in CM, that is of the right calibre for Barcelona.
Happy with this one.
If Sancho plus Upamecano arrived I'd take that as a massive window. The other positions can be looked at later on I'm not a massive fan of bringing too many in during a single window.
Hopefully Shaw can be fit for most of the season and AWB can work on his attacking play - I'd get rid of neither at the moment.
Move on Rojo, Jones, Andreas and one of the goalies. I'd actually give Lingard another season to see if he can turn it around we have to have some amount of experienced squad players and his outlook at least looked more positive end of season. Same reason I'd keep Mata even to give Bruno a rest when needed in the last 20 mins - he can still do a job of sorts at 10 just don't ever play him wide again.

Nah he’s not that good. Just runs around a lot
This keeper situation is starting worry me. We've been flawless in the window so far but a new keeper was priority #1 and yet it appears we're really struggling to get someone in.
