30m is a fucking expensive stepping stone.
I'd risk jumping across & getting my feet wet.
We did that the last two seasons

Russian media claiming he's of to Spurs. Some rumors that Lamela is our back up option.
And yet yesterday AVB said he hadnt enquired or made a bid for the player.Russian media claiming he's of to Spurs. Some rumors that Lamela is our back up option.
Why would FSG sell Lamela to Spurs? It makes no fucking sense.Brazilian media have claimed he'll join us, no one have a clue about this transfer at all.
3 different papers - 3 different stories about his arrival in England.
Lamela is apparantly Spurs first choice and Romas sporting Director was apparantly in London yesterday.

Think he's got a release clause mate
That said I'm expecting Willian to go to Spurs in the end and Lamela to stay at Roma.
@Binny, how does Dzageov compare to Willian? Dzageov would be a realistic target at half the price of Willian if this 30million figure is to be believed.
welcome to the darkside.
Utd showed on Saturday a clinical finisher is essential in the league

Wheres your fucking avatar?But why would Roma's Sporting Director travel to London. Other way round I'd have thought.
I bet the agents are just rubbing their hands in glee ...

It really is doom and gloom in this thread. We're trying to sign a brazillian winger for 30mill quid and no one is happy? Maybe we should go after Pennant again, cos he's value.
People saying we should go after x/y/z for the same money/half the money might not be considering that those players wouldn't be interested in joining us.
He's not not got boatloads of goals and international caps etc, but nor had Coutinho when we signed him, and he's proper shit isn't he?
I'm not saying he's the messiah, but I thought people might be pleased this is the sort of player we're going for. A player that City bid for, and other big teams were sniffing around.
Coutinho was 20.
This cunt is 25. Has shit hair and has done nothing other than a bit of showboating in his career.
Why are people so shit at making comparisons ?
...but you could certainly count on Draxler!
Have city just signed a 28yr old brazillian for about 35mill quid? He'll obviously be shit then if he hasn't got a great haircut and has won nothing.
Why are people so shit at making comparisons ?
LulzYes, their inability to do so is like if a dodo was resurrected.
To be fair. And I really dont know because I havnt seen him play, but Willian has won like 15 trophies in 6 years. And was trasfered for 35m of the back of that. He cant be as bad as some are making out?Coutinho was 20.

Like I said I dont remember watching him play (I dont watch Europe when we arent in it) but my mate says he was unbelievable at Shaktar and one of the best players he has seen play against Chelsea ever. I can understand the negativity because as you and Liam point out, he doesnt score much, but neither does Navas and he advanced Citeh in one game yesterday.
Id rather spend the money elsewhere, but thats simply because I havnt seen him play.
If I could pick a Left sided forward/midfielder for us I would sign Antoine Griezmann who I think is brilliant, but no one else in world football seems to rate. So what do I know.
