He's very similar to Lacazette in that regard which still makes me wonder why Arsenal is interested in him in the first place. You can play him there. But he's only half as good in that position. I'll take your word for it. I imagine that in this case, he'd play a little further up the pitch and slightly more central, maybe just behind Lacazette (or vice-versa) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually follow the blog on twitter but haven't had a chance to read these. Thanks for these! Hopefully this deal gets wrapped up soon. I actually don't want Oli to leave but I suppose a 6 months loan, and in a WC year, might really be something to consider for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get to play the team I despise the most in the world. With Ancelotti in charge, I would be very disappointed if we did not win the group.

Lateralus91 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 German media reporting Aubameyang could be announced as early as today. We will sign Batshuayi as replacement. Auba's deal 63m € + 5m € paid in bonus. I'd be ok with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralus91 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Deal is 63.75m €. Giroud to Chelsea, Batshuayi on loan to BVB. Also Marc Bartra to Betis. Sad to see him go. Clearly a move away from here because he's still affected by the bus bombing. Wish him all the best. He's been a terrific addition football-wise but especially character-wise. Furthermore we signed Sergio Gómez from Barca's youth team. Don't know anything about him but seems he was one of Barca's best academy players. Barca fans seem quite unpleased he's leaving.

In turn, Barcelona signed Marcus McGuane from Arsenal, who didn't look too bad in his Europa league appearances. Full circle window we've had.

otherwise Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I'm not a tactical wizard but I'll describe burnley's tactics as go to hockey moves, tons of pressure, good forward and back check, good transition game. Don't think City are still very good at facing a team like that and with injuries, def not. They were able to grind out a draw. good on them. Sterling's miss is bad but not the end of the world. A much needed break now, and then back at winning again. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralus91 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 So, these Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang boys seem to be alright at football, don't they? Who would've thought? Good thing Auba plays up front. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReggieBush Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Chelsea fans are deluded if they think they should sack Conte. How many top class managers are you going to go through before you figure out its the boards fault. If Conte does get fired, it sets up a nice return to la nazionale.

I'd love him back at the national team but I think his heart is set at being a club coach for the time being. He's been a long rumoured target of Inter and you'd have to think they would consider making a move for him, especially since Spalletti hasn't been getting great results lately. If that were to happen, it would probably make Spalletti the first choice for the FIGC, so who knows?

ReggieBush Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 It should be 4-0 Juve. Spurs have had some chances but the fact that there was no call on Chiellini which lead to the goal is absolutely horrible. He was kicked in the ankle! Couple that with 2 horrid Higuain misses and Spurs are in a game they have no business being in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
