Roberto Firmino

[Boss]

Any giffs of Ayre arriving on the scene? For old times sake?

 

[Torvald Utne]

Never heard of him except for on here but I'm all in

There is no release clause.

At least 5 different sources disagree with you (ranging from 14 to 18 million). Here is the one when he signed an extension (see last paragraph):

 

Roberto Firmino has signed a two-year extension with Hoffenheim.

Firmino has played a major part in Hoffenheim’s success in front of goal this season, scoring 13 and providing a further 10 assists to help the club into 10th place in the Bundesliga.

 

The 22-year-old, who has made 100 Bundesliga appearances for the club, had been linked with the likes of Schalke, Wolfsburg, Manchester United, Liverpool and AC Milan but instead opted to sign a contract extension.

 

The Brazilian, whose previous deal had been due to expire in 2015, told the club’s official website: “I feel very much at home here. I like the path that the club is on. We play exciting football, the team spirit is great and I will continue working hard to help the team as much as I can in the future.”

 

The club’s sporting director, Alexander Rosen, praised Firmino as “a player with incredible ability, who has developed immensely in the last year under [coach] Markus Gisdol.”

 

German tabloid Bild believes Firmino is likely to leave Hoffenheim in 2015 but the new contract will guarantee Hoffenheim a minimum transfer fee of 25 million euros.

I'm waiting for the ink to dry. Looks like a Chelsea gazump opportunity if he is anything near as good as his Youtube videos. We'd also need City to hurry up with that 50m.

[setreal]

Bild reported based on his value of about 30m€, never mentions a clause. No paper in Germany has ever mentioned a release clause for Firmino. Release clauses are not very common in Germany. That is what i'm going with.

[Hades]

I doubt anybody at the cub has ever heard of Firmino, let alone putting in a €25M bid.

[Russ Atmosphere]

[RobbieOR]

We've bid £44m.

 

Good, Andy Carroll won't be our record signing anymore.

Fair enough dude. We will know soon enough.

Oh sure, I don't care either way really. I just hope we get him in.

[liverpoolsno9]

Never seen him play but seen a few posters on here banging on about him for a year or so. Just watched the obligatory YouTube clips and, IF we can get Sturridge fit with Roberto alongside him & Coutinho just behind, that looks good to me.

[El Dangerous]

I'd be a lot more comfortable with this move if there was a 'h' in between the n and o in his name.

Indeed. It reads like "For me? No"

[Baltar]

Would be a good signing. But frankly, if any other European team from a top league that's in the Champions League next season come in for him (and there certainly will be), we've got fuck all chance of getting him.

Firmino Clive do Nascimento apparently.

FAAAAAAP   FAAAAAAAAP FRRRRAAAAAAAAP FAP FAP FAP FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP

 

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAP, FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAP

 

FAP FAAAAAAAAP FAAAAAAAP FAP FAP FAP FUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP.....

 

...and that's how you fap when you got a 12 incher. If you don't believe me ask Gerrard. 

 

For the record, if we end up being beaten by some cunt club for this fella, I'll take it personally.

[Trumo]

A few people on here might like the thought of you being beaten by a cunt club.

You are really a disturbed little fella aren't you?

[ZonkoVille77]

It's that Somalian heat. Fucks with the brain.

[Arl arse]

(In preparation for the long drawn out transfer saga and failure to sign this fella ultimately ending in a deadline day signing of some fuckin no mark.)

 

I'll get this in nice & early:

 

 

 

 

 

Ian Ayre is a cunt / Fuck the committee.

[Anubis]

From this footage, just in, of Firmino signing for us, he looks like he's carrying a bit of weight.

 

[xerxes]

"hello, hello - Rob Fermino, Rob Fermino"

 

Chant ready...

[Elite]

Sounds like he'd kill your weeds.

[Boss]

Firm-in-Hoe

 

Sounds like words to live by.
