Re: Erik Lamela

Please tell me that's tongue in cheek...

People aren't taking Mourinho's comments seriously?

It is tongue in cheek......

I would be far more distraught if this deal went tits up though...... this guy is an amazing talent.......cant see us not facing competition.

Nice :)

I agree with you. I even think I argued earlier this window (perhaps in this thread) that Lamela would be unrealistic, Roma wouldn't sell, bigger clubs would be in for him and so on. I would be absolutely delighted to be wrong about that one though!
 
Re: Erik Lamela

and you've seen a decent amount of lamela too i take it

what about pjanic ...how much of him have you seen?

and dzagoev...how much of him have you seen

I see pjanic as a deeplying playmaker rather than a number 10. His problem is that even though he looks like a big lad, he gets knocked off the ball rather easily in the same way Siggy does for us.
I think he'd need to play in a 3 man midfield in the premiership rather than a 2 man one. He's a fantastic passer of the ball though but isnt much threat on goal himself at number 10.
I havent seen much of dzagoev since he was outstanding at the Euros. I have no faith in a Russian player coming to the premier league and doing well though. If he eventually does end up in England I think it will be as another Abramovich buy.
 
Re: Erik Lamela

Re: Erik Lamela

I didn't last time!! I was the first that said not to get too excited as we hasn't signed him.

Re: Erik Lamela

I think we will sign him on the basis that having lost out on Willian, we'll realise the importance of getting this one completed swiftly.

I 100% agree and I know you weren't blowing your trumpet before either.

apologies that wasn't aimed at you....just general frustration as to what has occurred. just ignore me....though I think I feel a lot better now compared to earlier on.

Hopefully but will still need to find another winger or 'no 10' from somewhere though!
 
Re: Erik Lamela

He doesn't look a better player than willian.

He can run a bit faster and that's it

Regardless who is better or worse, it's marginal. We need another player of the same sort of calibre to move forwards and challenge the top 3. That's a tough ask in 10 days
