  1. This might sound like me being a biased United fan and honestly I would say the same thing if a United player did this. I was watching the Arsenal v Bournemouth game again today and I just can't fathom why Giroud was celebrating after scoring his goal. Arsenal are a team, I imagine, that have title aspirations you still had 5 minutes left to score against a 10 man Bournemouth team who are clearly holding on by a thread.

     

    Look at Martial vs Boro, I know it was only 1-0, but he instantly grabs the ball and heads back to centre circle. It absolutely pissed me off when I saw that and I'm not even an Arsenal fan!

    First of all, if 30m is the price then Juve will almost instantly match the deal. He is a special player and will be the face of Italian football for the next 10 years.

     

    There has never been an Italian player of Marco Verratti's quality that has ever played in the EPL, so I really wouldn't be that worried.

    Zola??

    plenty of speculation has PSG's Marco Verratti moving to Chelsea in the transfer window. at "only" 30m, I think this would be a pretty good signing for Chelsea - however, I am always skeptical about Italian players succeeding in England based on past prejudices. but given his success in the sorta-similar EPL-lite Ligue 1, i don't know if it would be that risky of a signing

    No chance Verratti moves in January, and certainly not for 30m.

  4. Is going the Cleveland route such a bad thing? Guys like Allen, Kluber, Santana, Lindor, Bauer, Carrasco were all brought in under Shapiro. They formed the nucleus of a WS team. I would love for the Jays to go all out to get the big name players, but Rogers are not the ones to throw the cash around.

     

    I honestly believe they will probably trade Donaldson before his contract runs out and will start the rebuilding phase.

  5. According to Heyman, Jays and Fowler are still apart on talks. And that EE is apparently looking for 5/125. 

     

    Edit: also worth noting, Passan is saying that Nippon are going to post Otani after this upcoming season. 

     

    Edit 2: Davidi saying that is EE signing with Jays is looking less likely by the day, and Moreland is a real possibility for 1B.
