Will Higuain Leave His Dream Club

Higuain 'close' to Arsenal deal

 

[MasterBlaster76]

Fixed.

Looks like an almost done deal, but his signing could mean that Ancelotti might opt for a different formation.

That's another City target gone awry then.

Liverpool aren't going to get anywhere with that defence.

I know! Need a new LB to replace Enrique, and a couple of CB's (an RCB/LCB each) to strengthen our rather mediocre defence line. Digne/Sandro, Alderweireld and Zouma will do nicely..

As far as I know, Digne is close to a PSG move, and would Sandro really move to Liverpool, he has better options if he wants to move.

Benat returns to Athletic - ESPN FC

How no one bigger didn't come for Benat I'll never know... maybe next season.

Fixed.

Not so much a different formation, but a narrower right.

------------Benzema-------------
Cristiano------Ozil---Isco---------
-------Alonso------Khedira-------
Marcelo--Ramos--Varane--Carvajal
-------------Casillas--------------

And you give him the freedom to interchange with Ozil, it works.

Everton reject Man Utd offer for Baines - ESPN FC

Try ?15m.

 

[puddleduck]

12m is derisory for Baines really.

 

[Epic]

Exactly, this is the best LB in the league we're talking about here.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Don't see the point in prioritising in Baines. Already 28, not significantly better than Evra and has the same weaknesses as him. Would be a good signing but I'd much rather get in a midfielder.

 

[Skater]

I'm hearing a lot about Ola Toivonen and Leroy Fer coming to Norwich.

 

[ste_mc_efc]

We pretty much signed Fer in january, but discovered a potential knee problem so wanted to restructure to deal so it was less up front and more based on appearance/performance type things. So if his knee went we didn't lose out as much. They (probably quite rightly) told us were to go and it fell through at the last.

Sounds Good Toivonen Was Not Able to Show his Ability anywhere.....norwich in english conditions suits good for Toivonen.. he has great physical ability

Baines would be a great signing - remember his free kicks as well - but the priority absolutely must be a midfielder.
