nah it's ok we all suffered enough

Naaaah dude, just pick something silly or fun (he has a silly name that can give ideas), its half the fun of winning these things. I miss making bets with Nicko and making him wear dolphin version of him

I think last year's cl run was a bit lucky (although you always need luck in cl) and not really representative of our position in european football

Yes, that may be true but I was expecting to build upon the squad that "luckily" made it to a CL final. Instead we lost Tevez because he is Tevez, sold Vidal and failed to replace either of them with players that will perform NOW. I don't doubt Dyabalas ability to be great some day soon but we took a couple of steps back this season. That's all I'm saying, just a little disappointed but I'm excited to watch this team grow and get better with time.

I don't get why Inter are selling to us either tbh.

I had thoughts they'd be dumb enough to block it thinking of Scudetto after beating a guaranteed relagation team and another one fighting for it come end of the season. Wise decision to sell. as decent a temporary solution as Hernanes is, 11m is just too good of an offer to reject.

True, but at this time it is hard to see who ee could get of the same level to replace the exiting top players

This thread is officially unreadable. I tried, I failed. So many candy-asses in here!

Big thanks to Jay and Osman for providing a bit of sanity.

Really? I feel I been bit emotional all day It really infuriates me we failed at our objectives and our own set goals (Marotta's own words and wishes), and had to settle for less.


Hope it turns out well, 10 new players, thats half the squad almost. If you dont have a set key player to carry you like Tevez did in the meantime, we risk crumbling mentally with the increasing pressure with so many young players.

So...are we done?

Probably

What more do you need? farewell handjob, little petting, perhaps a cornetto for the ride home?

 

[1251alex]

Just like FIFA?

Finally someone who gets it.

How do they do the medical for these last minute buys?

 

[Ocelot]

And your opinion of getting Hernanes instead? Isnt it better to gamble on a young player with very high ceiling that can become a top player, instead, of what we just got? Who no one deemed worth considering even except for last minute panic option?


Financially we should been able to risk it, we have gotten plenty of moolah from sales so far, and our revenue improved significantly past year.

Draxler for the ~40 million Wolfsburg is paying is a pretty bad deal. It would've been alright (not great) for ~30 million.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

How do they do the medical for these last minute buys?

if i had to guess deal is signed pending medical so if medical is failed contract is null and void

 

[j0ker]

Both? Loan or permanent?

 

[Martin]

if i had to guess deal is signed pending medical so if medical is failed contract is null and void

like a pre-nup?

 

[Red]

How do they do the medical for these last minute buys?

I think they tend to rely a lot of the medical history of the player and just do a very targeted medical based on what prior injuries a player has had.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

like a pre-nup?

no like actually marriage contract, if not consummated it is annulled
