We should just buy him now. He can't be any worse than Isla and looking at how Gervinho is destroying Serie A fullbacks and center backs, Menez will have a similar effect and open up a new dimension to our attack: COUNTER ATTACKS baby
Well at least we wouldn't need to hear everybody here saying "he needs more time to adapt, he has only been here for few months" next fall if he wouldn't be any good. I think we should spend 3M just for that.
Agreed. 3M means he can settle into our system and even play most of our Europa league games
I know we like to think we're as broke as Notts County, but we're really not and if we can't spare 3M then we might aswell declare bankruptcy and move on.
"According to L'Equipe, Juventus have offered 2 million euros to PSG to obtain 26 year old winger Jeremy Menez." http://www.transfermarketweb.com/?action=read&idsel=133592
So between Free and 4 mil euro asking price, it looks like Beppe tested the water at happy medium.
if we dont get him now he would sit on a bench for the rest of the season and he would find it hard for him to integrate into the team (just like llorente). plus him moving to juventus would help him gain a spot in the national team.
Even if you keep vucinic you can go 433 with menez Rw and Vucinic Lw
Menez for free and De Bruyne for 15mil would be a real coup! But I would be ecstatic if that happened and retain one of Vooch and Quag, preferably Mirko.
