    I dont even know Aurier is.

    Markovic is only 20. Being a sub at his age is no bad thing.

    Serge Aurier- attacking wingback. French. Perhaps not the strongest defensively, but can move up the field nicely.

    Not bad on him... bad on us for spending £20mill if only a sub.

    But he's 20 and on a long term contract. He could be a first 11 super star in a few years.

    That's only £4m ****ing less than the supposed buyout price for Shaqiri. FFS, it's the Torres money all over gain.

    Aurier is actually Ivorian. He was French on earlier iteration of Football Manager though...

    Really?! <laugh> Aren't most French internationals African born and only have a passport so that they can represent France? <laugh>


    He does at least play in the French league though!

    A lot of African players are French born.

    Think its more of a Swansea/BR thing. Look at how much they wanted for Allen

    You missed out tackles lost. Davies was pretty brutal there, he loses something like 2/3 of the challenges he makes. Shaw on the other wins more than half. He's also worse in the air, as he only wins about 40% of his aerial challenges as opposed to 55% from Shaw. He's pretty good interception wise, but the chances created stat doesn't hold much weight when compared to top class fullbacks. All in all he's average, but still better than Bertrand who is the absolute s**ts.

    He played for IC during the World Cup. Clocked as the fastest player at the tournament.

    This is the problem I have. If Enrique were fully fit then he'd be okay. But just to assume he'll be the same player after a year out is a risk, especially as a lot of his game is based on physicality.

    Holy crap! I've got a migraine at the moment so my vision isn't the best... when I opened that link up for a few seconds I thought it said Stoke made a £71million bid for Assaidi! I went from "Holy Crap- is that real- to this is a faux link to realizing there was no "1".


    Assaidi might as well go- he's never going to make it at Liverpool- so sell for as much as we can.

    If we profit on Assaidi like that he becomes a good signing.

    Signed for £2.4mill - I'm sure wasn't on very high wages. He may have never made a first team start- but yeah... selling him for anything north of £4mill will represent a profit even after wages, no doubt.

  19. I only have one concern about RB and that is Brod; he'll continue to pick Glen ****ing Johnson!!!

    We have Flanno, Wisdom & Kelly there too
