Looks like Darmian is all but done then? Utd are apparently in advanced negotiations to replace him with highly rated porto rb dalot.

Bitching about Darmian, Perin, Can, Fabinho, Vidal, Morata on loan is lowest common denominator level retarded, but Icardi is an interesting case.

Makes sense on financial level (older player with depreciating market value out, younger player in) and even on sporting level (Higuain isn't perfect & there isn't any other better option available). Plus, can only imagine the reactions of Inter and the Interisti lol.

But on the other hand, I'm not sure I want someone with his character playing for my team. Some things are more important than winning. If we do sign him, have to somehow stomach it for a couple of seasons before we sell him for 150m (hopefully).

Icardi numbers are incredible considering he was playing in a team that was struggling for creativity the past 6 years. Imagine what he can do with the likes of Pjanic, Costa, Dybala and Bernardeschi.

Yup, theres where the amazing thing is.

Inter doesnt support him for shid, yet he scores like a madman.

Chelsea will get a great striker.

I agree, he is despicable. But as they say, business never personal. Its actually a great deal.

thing is that most of his goals are assisted, and he's heavily relying on inda wingers. i bet the duo of perisic + candreva assisted at least half of his goals this season.
What i meant is that inter doesnt generate much from plays compared to us. SO what he does is really good

Icardi is a fine striker but he is like most box strikers that play by themselves. Either they score or no one scores. Look at Immobile and Dzeko.

The only thing that matters is how many they would score that other strikers would not score.
