Transfer Rumours The Summer Transfer Rumour Thread 2016

Tom how much Serie A do you watch? He was quite often carried by Vidal the previous year and although he stepped up this year, there were games where he was
painfully anonymous. He's not world class yet.

 

How many times has Ronaldo been anonymous in games? Quite a bit.

 

Wish we had someone that anonymous playing in our team?

 

Very rarely actually, I'd say 95% of the time he is a top performer. Hence why he averages over a goal every game for Madrid. Strikers me as a very strange thing to say

 

Andre Gomes joins Barca for £30m. Will rise to around £50m in add ons.

Schurrle joins Dortmund for £26m

Pjaca joined Juv for £20m

And ex Saints Djuricic has joined Sampdoria on loan.

 

Ronaldo is a striker, it's a lot easier for a midfielder to go under the radar and have a good game that isn't obvious at first sight. He had some poor games for Juventus last season, sure. But he had some brilliant games too and at 23 he can only get better. For somebody who is quite lanky and not blessed with explosive pace he can spread eagle opposition. Some of the things he does on the pitch defy logic and United are paying for him in the hope that his consistency improves. It's too much money but it's not my money and having seen him play week in and week for the last two seasons I can't wait for him to play in the Premier League (again). I wouldn't mind if he had two poor games next season though

 

He scores his goals in bulks. He can score 3 or 4 a game one time then go on a scoreless streak.

 

That's an insane argument. Please don't tell me you're trying to compare these 2 in terms of impact? Anyway we can assume then that you don't watch any Serie a?

 

I watched every Juventus game in the Serie A, every Champions League game and missed two cup games.

Saints said to be after West Ham reserve keeper.

And a striker.

 

35 mil move for Sissoko by Everton, please let it be true

 

I'm sure "Football Fan Cast" are extremely reliable with their rumours....

 

Marega is ****ing awful.

 

You don't really surf the net do you Fran? You trawl it.

 

My point wasn't related to Pogba. Just stating that criticising Ronaldo for being inconsistent is pretty daft.

 

Think you have based that off the first 10 games of last season when he scored all 12 goals across about 4 games. Really can't say Ronaldo goes missing often.

 

Ronaldo "goes missing" is one of the stupidest things I've ever read on here. Well done Tom

 

Reality is that if he does go 'missing' it's becuase he's being marked out of the game, probably by 2 opposition players.

So he is still contributing by creating space for others

 

I've seen plenty of games where Ronaldo does virtually nothing all game.

Suggestion that apart from a back up keeper and a RB, we are not looking for anyone else this summer. That agrees with what the club is saying, but I'm still hoping they are lying.
