    Real Madrid wanted him last summer, That says it all for me, He could've won the champions league with them but he decided to return to us.

    I'd argue that you haven't watched much of him looking at that assessment mate.

    There's not a pundit in the world who'd say Pogba is nothing to be excited over, only rival fans say that.

    Says it all for me too.
    Says that Real Madrid want to buy whoever costs the most money, because thats what Real Madrid do and have always done.

    He is a great player, but he is nothing to be THAT excited over.
    As in as excited as Matth gets.
    He gets the same chubby when someone mentions De Gea.

    You bought the french Jermain Defoe, Hardly anything to get excited about.

    Weird how they have discovered so many World class strikers in the last 10 years

    Torres, Falcao, Forlan, Costa, Griezemann,

    <laugh> well nobody gets that excited about anything, even Euromillions winners have more chill.

    De Gea is the best though, there's no disputing that. He just is.

    Why is he the French Jermain Defoe.
    Other than the fact that both men are black, I see no similarity.
    And also, Defoe was a very good player at his peak.

    It's got nothing to do with colour.

    His ability to score goals, hence the Jermain Defoe comparison.

    So the only similarity is they're strikers?

    You missed the best one out.

    I'll leave it with you.

    He's infinitely better than any of them, unfortunately.

    So they're both strikers who score goals?

    Lacazette has scored 91 goals in his last 133 league games.
    Defoe has never come close to that strike rate.
    All that remains to be seen is whether The Cassette can transfer his skills to the PL.
