The targets as in plural. Only paper I see linking with multiple targets today is Daily Mail...
Eric Dier, Schneiderlin & Rodriguez
And the surprise factor means - its probably daily fail is not a fail today

I reckon JJ is talking about the express article with Musacchio and Dier (every man and his dog knows about our interest in the Soton two already).

Only concern is they talk of Musacchio as a replacement for Verts. I call BS on that part though as Barca will look for an easier deal...

I can't see us selling Verts this summer, If Luiz went to PSG for £50m then we should be asking a similar amount for Verts, which no-one will want to pay.

JJ was tweeting last night a number of hours after the Dier stuff had already hit the net. Could be that he missed those stories but seems unlikely given that he was probably immediately inundated with tweets asking about it. Pretty sure he's talking about Musacchio as that's a new one.

I can see us doing the smart thing, similar to Vorm with Lloris - buy a good player in the same position, give them a year to acclimitise and then if the worst happens and next year Hugo or Jan want to leave, we're not playing catch up. If we do well and they want to stay, we have good competition.

Express links us to Dier and Musacchio

Unless JJetset explicitly tells us which paper he reads, then what's the use? Every paper is carrying some kind of transfer story related to us!

dont think this has been posted

ali z late last night: Hmm wonder why Lasalles deal not confirmed, if so shoddy work by us, Jamal was very excited to be coming.maybe just played forest off against Lisbon, not that our chairmen would ever do that

JJ says 'targets' - he isn't going to post about papers reporting on MS and JRod. Everyone knows that.

He's only going to respond to what they say if they've surprised him by actually reporting something out of nowhere unexpectedly, so it has to be the Express which seems to be the only one linking us to 'two' players rather than one.

Therefore: Dier and that Mustacchio bloke from Villareal

I hope it's the Express with Dier and Musacchio (his name is so fun to say). We desperately need to sort our our CB issue and these 2 would certainly do that.
I doubt it'd be a paper that links us to Schneiderlin/ Rodriquez because literally everybody already knows about our interest.

Apologies if this sounds ignorant, but what does that final sentence mean? :oops:

I can see him replacing Chiri.

Barca have signed Mathieu (LCB) and they have already spent £70m net on transfers. Can't see Jan going there especially after his recent quotes as well.
