Summer mercato 2015 (69 Viewers)

[Mark]

The agent of Firmino, Roger Wittmann, came out giving a small update.

http://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/roberto-firmino/darf-im-sommer-weg-40117848.bild.html

He confirms, that Firmino is definitely allowed to leave Hoffenheim at the end of the season.

Despite lucrative offers last year, Hoffenheim were able to convince Firmino to extend his contract, but same time it was promised to him, that he could leave this summer..they also had 25m€ offer in winter, but it was never an option to sell him, as all parties have agreed that summer is the right time for it.

Following top clubs that r allegedly interested in him (named by Bild, not the agent):
Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Schalke, Wolfsburg, Dortmund, Inter, AC Mailand, Juventus Turin, Athletico Madrid and St. Petersburg.

Sport Bild KNOW, Firmino's dream of playing for one of the very top clubs could become reality soon, cos also Bayern have him on their list.

I m not denying, that Firmino is on Bayern's list, but what I know is, that Sport Bild dont 'know' anything about the plans of Bayern..nobody does, but especially not Sport Bild.

Let's do this!

Oh. Anyway, Man Utd could buy him in 5 minutes, they'll smash another £150m out this summer, hopefully without CL football.

man utd would be stupid to go spend more money on attackers when there are far deeper issues in midfield and in defence.

Well they are stupid, they shop like they are making a PES line up.

@zizinho

i doubt he would chose to go there over the other teams mentioned

 

[Oggy]

So Inter is closing in on Jovetić, well it's time to cross another name from the list...

@King of Kings @Hustini @AlexJuventino

Anyway we should switch to a winger based formation.

Yeah, well.

Honestly, I can't even be upset, because I lost all hope of him coming to Juve anyway.

He strikes me as the kind of guy who'd do anything for money. Talking about wanting to join all the big teams... idk maybe I'm just messing with you

Except Diego was single-handedly trashing the Bundesliga and Firmino is a nice prospect. I dont know which formation Allegri is planning to with anyway but it better suit the players we are going to sign.

4-3-1-2 is not a good formation moving forward. It kills our strikers and our CMs. There is no other option for us with Pogba and Vidal, who like to make central runs. We need wingers to stretch a defense laterally, not more people in the centre to clog up their channels.

Then you think how it's possible one of Morata or Tevez will be gone after next season either back to Madrid or back to Argentina and there is no reason to think that we will even be equipped to play a 2 striker formation let alone 4-3-1-2.

I'm seeing the 4-3-1-2 as a stop gap because we lack wingers. Let's just find wingers. I would prefer a winger over Firmino, Mkhitaryan, etc.

I agree with everything you're saying but there are some problems. We won't be able to buy 2 wingers in 2016 to make the switch. We'll still have Tevez for one season so if we bring one winger this summer and another in 2016 then the first one has to be capable of playing as AM since the only reasonable formation for next season seems to be the 4312.

There's another option... Selling a star to fund a couple of wingers

But I wouldn't go that way
