Are there any decent, realistic midfield targets left? Who's still on the market?

Zidane: "James improved the team; he's staying here"

http://en.as.com/en/2016/08/27/football/1472331919_569138.html

UGHHHHH Kovacic, James and Isco on their bloody bench all of which complain about lack of game time. WHY the HELL do they refuse to let any of the 3 go? God I am so envious of their luxury. Only Madrid can afford to keep a situation like this.

They don't want to go, especially James and Isco. They've been Madrid fans their whole life and Zizou was their idol. They want to prove themselves there. Unless they really push James out Kovačić is our best option.

in order of preference as I talked to Beppe and Fab via phone:

1. Moussa Sissoko
2. Brozovic
3. Kovacic...talked to Max and he wants him.
4. L. Gustavo
5. Herrera
6. Witsel
...Mr.X if a club calls us and say if we need this guy.

as for Cuadrado, Conte needs to be convinced or have a beating. If we don't get him I ask Marty to remove any sign of him on tuZ.

Nothing on Bastian?

Nothing on Bastian?

I guess he's in the Mr. X category.

 

[catch22]

I'd rather Brozovic than Sissoko. There is a reason why he is a regular starter in a very talented Croatian team, and he typically looks very good with them. I think if he is surrounded by talented players he does a very good job.

According to my Spanish friend (and a diehard Real supporter) Real fans don't care for James at all. It was before we sold Pogba, he said he wished Real would give Juve James+cash and get Pogba

 

[Gagi]

They only care about the next best thing.

Unfortunately they're not in charge.

 

[Bjerknes]

Real can't keep all those players on the bench. Perhaps it won't happen now but if we are patient they will fuck it up as they always do.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

What Would Sabatini Do?

 

[GarfielD]

Wolfsburg wants €25m to sell Luiz Gustavo. Marotta will make contacts with Perez to ask about Kovacic, according to Sky.

 

[alaska]

I'd be okay with offering 40m and a strong wage to secure Kovacic at this point.


Maybe even that is fantasy.

 

[catch22]

Just anyone but Sissoko.

The thing is though that Brozovic keeps him out of the Croatian NT, and is available for half the price.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

I heard n'zonzi was on the shortlist fml...

This.

Look at Barcelona - they have problems attracting players; even regular quadruples from the bench aren't too exciting, not to mention top players want top deals even when benched.

 

[Mike-e-y]

We won't get anyone we've left it far too late and all the links are tenuous at best

 

[ClaudiOHHH]

Just get James

 

[Robee]

We lacked a vice marchisio when Pogba was here man and paid for it at the start of last season. What makes you think he is back in 2 months? werent they saying around the winter break?

Even if he is coming back in 2 months. I dont see why Sissoko is a better buy than a vice marchisio or a higher priority.

Agreed on the Sissoko part, my friend. I'd hate to see that blind mule in our team.

Allegri or Marotta, can't remember said it a about 10 days ago about Marchisio returning in 2 months. But as Allegri is speaking; Pjanic will become our regista with Marchisio probably as backup AND most of the time in a more advanced position I guess.
