Again we opt for the weakest player we have been linked with. We went for the cheap options again this summer and i feel it will cost us again... unless we elia is just back up for a decent winger but i don't think that is the case here.

vidal was a good steal..i donno about lich. I see Elia the Krasic type of winger..hope he'll do good, and he won't be a troublemaker

A right footed player who can cut inside seems to be the perfect match opposite Krasic. Hopefully Elia in a new environment will shine. He has the talent.

I hope we won't sign Vargas. He won't fit Conte's ideas and he's too expensive. Vargas is a Del Neri type of player.

SKY Italia picking up the story now. We'll meet with Hamburg to make an offer.

They want 15 Million, our first offer is 8 Million. We should close around 10 Million.

Good to have the forums back. I relied on google translate and vecchiasignora while the forum was down for transfer news, it was dreadful.

Anyway Elia isn't anything special and we should definitely look elsewhere. From all the wingers we were linked to, he is only better than Perotti, looks like we are running low on cash. I think a LW signing should have been a bigger priority than it was.

Vidal cheap option, Licht cheap option :shifty:
Ziegler cheap option, Vucinic cheap option and Elia will be another cheap option. We are going to have a weak leftside now that could of been so much better if we were willing to spend the cash that we supposely have. Left Back and Left wing really needed massive upgrades this year fair enough they will be improved but not by much.

I remember when Sneijder and Robben were both considered finished after they Real sting. Same with Davids after playing in Milan. Also quite similar with Seedorf in Inter.

Seems like Dutch players, sometimes need a change to reach their potential. Give this Elia guy a chance, he isn't playing in NT for being cute and a good joker.

I was ok with Elia last summer and im not completley against him this summer but i feel we need results this year and cant afford to take risks, hoping players will come good if we don't get 3rd place this year we are fucked.
