Liverpool have supposedly turned down a 23m bid with 7m in add-ons from Palace for Benteke because they didn't like the add-ons.

I'd rather rely Sanchez or Walcott up top than have Koscielny, Chambers, Gabriel, Monreal, and Holding as the only options in defense all year. That's dire. Koscielny misses any time and it's disastrous, and he can't play every minute. Goals will come from midfield and wide players, even if Walcott at center forward, for example, is far from ideal.

obviously now the CB situation is dire but if we actually had mertesacker or gabriel as options i would rather pin my hopes on the rest of the defense/defensive midfielders covering for their mistakes than walcott somehow becoming consistently good

Gigi Galli posted:That is pretty good, I wonder if Torino will have time to find a replacement. That's two of their starting defenders (although Peres is more of a wingback) gone this summer, and Maksimovic went AWOL earlier this week. They announced signing Rossettini from Sampdoria today, who I can't remember ever noticing him in any way.

In actual transfer news Bournemouth have signed Marc Wilson from Stoke for around £2m. He's dropped down to 4th or 5th choice cb with Stoke so it was probably time for him to move on. He has been quite critical of the clubs training regime on twitter so it seemed like his days were numbered anyway. I can't disagree with his criticism but to air it publicly on twitter was pretty loving stupid.

What is really needed is a Mertesacker replacement. He has maybe one season left after this one and his flaws have become more and more obvious. He shouldn't be the main defensive partner.

Gabriel has been really bad. Mertesacker is decent, but only has a year or two left and barely borders on being good enough anyway.

I've got some news to help this thread heal. Fernando Forestieri has been fined, and has apologised, for even thinking about agitating for a move to derby county! Plus we have also signed former Man U midfield ace David Jones (3 goals in 131 games for Burnley). Look and learn, wengy.

straight up brolic posted:nah, John stones had some high profile gently caress ups last season but he's generally good, while Gabriel is abysmal outside of being the right build When was his "generally good" period? He went from Everton youth player with "potential" that Martinez would be lenient with re: frequent costly mistakes so he could develop, right to established player that Martinez hosed up because he still makes frequent, costly mistakes (1 for 1 in his City career so far).

I don't think City will let in 4 goals at home against a mid table side. Well, not once Bravo arrives at least.
