Summer Transfer Thread 2015

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Schweinsteiger is a Schweinficker.

 

 

(If he signs for them.)

[AngryOfTuebrook]

That would be it for me mate. I'd kill him. 

What if he scores and gets kicked in the head?

 

 

Would that restore some sort of karmic balance?

[Mil-ing Around]

Schweinsteiger is going to be 31 in 3 weeks time. He was a beast of a player but only made 20 appearances last season. Something isn't right there. Maybe his body is shot and he can't play in a high intensity Pep team?

 

The reported fee is £15 million for him with 1 year left on his contract. Seems quite high.

 

He certainly has the build and physique for the Premiership though. This seems like a big name shirt selling signing that will appease their fans more than exactly the type of player they need at the moment. 

[Bjornebye]

I think it is a very good signing for them. They have lacked any sort of steel in the middle since Keane left. Fellaini is a whopper. They have a fucking good squad going into next season. Cunts. 

 

Reports that AC and Inter are battling for Ibrahimovic's signature. 3.2 million he is available for. We should throw in a cheeky bid. Fuck Benteke.

I just hope it's their calculated risk.

 

 

[El Dangerous]

Fuck, with Schweiny leaving does anyone think we might lose Joe Allen to Bayern?

 

Would you rather have Benteke at £32m or Behrahino at £20m and a holding midfielder as well?

[J-V]

Code, so this is what you've been doing in your spare time.

 

[El Dangerous]

Bastard. Delph is staying at Villa. So that'll be £40m all in on him and Big Benty.

[Trumo]

I've seen a lot of people questioning Man Utd's pursuit of Schweinsteiger on the grounds that he's apparently injury prone, or that his legs have gone, or that he'll struggle to adapt to the league, or that his salary is too high, or that they needed to prioritise reinforcements in other areas first. All of the above may be true to some extent but what they are getting is somebody with huge experience and success for both club and country and it takes some of the pressure off their younger players. They'll look at his record and then look at how he carries himself and in simple terms, link the two together to learn about what it takes to get to the top and stay there. All the best and most successful squads ensure that they include somebody of that ilk because it makes for a smoother changing of the guard when the time comes.

[Byrnie]

Spot on, Trumo.

 

I'd fucking love him here.

[Dave D]

I'm trying hard to find the negatives in Utd signing Schweinsteiger. I'm not doing a good job.

 

Try as I might, I think it's a great signing. Makes our midfield look a bit raw and one dimensional.

 

Just get Pjanic or Kovicic and all will be well.

 

(Cabaye would have done)

[El Dangerous]

Cabaye is good business at £10m but he's a total highlights player and we need to aim much higher. We won't but we should.

[manwiththestick]

Schweinsteiger is my favourite non Liverpool player, an absolute beast of a player at his peak, like a Rolls Royce.

 

 

 

 

Of course, he's now shite.

[JermainePennant]

Bastard. Delph is staying at Villa. So that'll be £40m all in on him and Big Benty.

That's good news for us, we won't be signing Delph and now city will be more desperate for Sterling to get the amount of homegrown players they need.

[El Dangerous]

What makes you so confident? If Lucas wants to go he'll be our first port of call. Cheap, English, plays for a shit English team.

[Paco]

Liverpool are weighing up a move for Inter Milan midfielder Gary Medel, according to reports in Chile.

If his name wasnt gary

[Trumo]

This seems like a big name shirt selling signing that will appease their fans...

 

Well, 'Schweinsteiger' is 14 letters.

[Dave D]

Well, 'Schweinsteiger' is 14 letters.

A valid point.

 

Difficult song material though.

 

Maybe-

 

Woooooaah

Schweinsteiger

He like a Geiger.

....Counter.

Woooooaah

Your shit ahhhhhhhhhh.

[Spy Bee]

He's a good player, but I don't think he strengthens them greatly, and I think they still have a lot of weaknesses. I'm not exactly shitting myself about them getting him.

[JermainePennant]

Allen, Henderson and Milner are better than him and would start ahead of him, probably Can aswell.

 

If Lucas goes we will look for another dm as James Pearce said a few weeks ago, if we wanted Delph we would have got him on a free, we spoke to a Milner months ago and would have with Delph aswell if he had been a target.

No. Just... No...
