if he moves for 30m his total career transfer fee to date would be 80+ million ffs

he has like 60 career goals ffs and most of those came at Newcastle

tbf he has only played about 100 games in that time.

The weird part of this is that they are targeting another player who is pretty much like Morata but way less technical.

carrol is more like lukaku. battering ram with the control of a man that 5 times over the drink drive limit

by Firenze Tue 16 Jan 2018 - 22:13

Carroll is nothing like Lukaku, he's literally only good in the air. Lukaku has good passing and awkward but effective dribbling. He could also do 3 laps of the pitch before Carroll did 1.

by Kick Tue 16 Jan 2018 - 23:09

latest reports suggest Carroll will be available for 20m.

Apparently we're looking at other targets but no other names have been dropped Laughing

From various sources, Chelsea ask about Emerson. From the London meeting (a few days ago) with Pallotta it is clear that Roma has to sell to stay solvent, and to buy. Monchi would rather sell Emerson abroad than in Italy. Strootman and Peres are the other possible options to be sold in January.

by Firenze Tue 16 Jan 2018 - 23:51

@Rincon any truth to the Naingol to China rumours, you think? could see it if what you just posted is true, plus he's not exactly a young lad.

I'd still love to sign him even if it meant a formation change and I know it won't happen

Sanchez Lukaku Lingard
Pogba Naingol
Matic

:fap:

The thing about London and Pallotta is true. That's not part of the rumor. The Nainggolan thing seemed true but not sure. It looked like it was gonna happen and then according to the rumor Nainggolan pulled out.

Monchi's answer on Nainggolan moving to China was "so far we've had no offers".

I guess the smoking thing soured relations and the fact that he can bring in the most bank means they are open to selling him.

Haven't watched Emerson but I've heard good things. Would he be able to make the step up?

I really want us to sign Telles.

by Robespierre Wed 17 Jan 2018 - 0:15

I've watched both , also because Telles played in Inter.

Emerson Palmeri is really very good. There is just a doubt: we don't know how he is after the serious injury

Telles is mediocre instead, you can sign better than him

No contest between Emerson and Telles.the first is easily better, that is clear

by Kick Wed 17 Jan 2018 - 0:25

Have you watched Telles this season? He has been the best LB in the Portuguese league.

Emerson coming back from an ACL isn't great, we have Baba in the exact same situation and we're not keeping him, so weird we'd want another LWB who is in the same boat Laughing

Being serious when I say this, for us Carroll was being only good in the air isn't really true tbh.

He was quite good on the ball, could shoot of either foot and was quite good at making runs.

Injuries ruined him and later clubs thinking he was just a battering ram you hoof to didn't help.

We never used him like that.

No contest between them. Telles is a scrub, he looked so out of his depth at Inter. Couldn't defend at all. Emerson looked like he was the next best LB around before the injury. Juve is linked with him if we sell Sandro, or maybe even if we don't as well. The injury is the only question mark.

Telles linked with Chelsea ?? After Zappacosta now this is the nail in the coffin.

Conte lost his damn mind Laughing

Wonder which Rush Hour he watched hmm

The one in Los Angeles or the one in Hong Kong ? Or maybe it was the 3rd one in Paris ?

Of the lot only LA Galaxy isn't a fraud of a club Laughing

Manchester City are working on a deal for one of PSG's most promising academy players, midfielder Claudio Gomes (17). [RMC]

Gomes and his entourage are very interested in City's project and have verbally agreed not to negotiate with any other clubs. PSG may offer him playing time next season to convince him to stay. [RMC]

Anyone follow PSG/Ligue 1 know how good this kid is? I know Paris area has a lot of talented kids coming through.

paging @sportsczy

although you should probably take any hype and divide it by 25%

doubt anyone else knows the lad besides Nick

West Ham have apparently gotten 0 offers for Carroll or been approached by Chelsea, so it seems like that banter move isnt going to happen

I'd let this slide if I liked you, but if you divide something by 25% - i.e. by 0.25 - it's going to increase the original number, not decrease it.

Considering your math skills I'd say West Ham have got probably around a dozen offers for Carroll. Would be mad to sell, though.

by Firenze Wed 17 Jan 2018 - 17:27

Good study for a psychologist, I suppose. Arguing with Liverpool fans like Unique every day eventually leads to regressive intelligence hmm

if that were the case though, I imagine Liverpool would be among the offers, since Carroll is the caliber of player you aim for. Bring him home.

by Firenze Wed 17 Jan 2018 - 17:30

Walcott signs a 3.5yr deal with Everton & leaves Arsenal 12 years to the month after joining from Southampton, finishing with 3 FA Cups & 108 goals in 397 apps. #EFC football/financial offer beat rivals + Walcott keen to work under Allardyce. #AFC plan to use funds to reinvest

Everton beating out Liverpool for Walcott :bow:

he won’t fit into klopps style. Could be a like for like with lukaku though. Anyway West Ham would be mad to sell him now

by Unique Wed 17 Jan 2018 - 17:31

Wilshere will be the next player out the door. Liverpool will sign him on a fee
