Just seems to me that he's been very underwhelming at PSG for a long time and we'd need a bit of a 'try before you buy' option. £27m is a big gamble when you consider some of the huge talents that have lost form and never recovered it.

I don't think we would sign him at all if we weren't convinced

Didn't say it was realistic ;):(

Its not my money I guess but can't see us dropping 30m on this fella and it working well.

Wait and see I guess

If we can get him on loan we should get him on loan. Makes good sense.
He's played so little for PSG this season that even semi-regular bench appearances would be an improvement to his current situation. Meanwhile we could do with holding fire on anything more permanent till the summer, when we can make decisions about GKN and Lamela going forward.

Nobody said they do. Doesn't mean they wouldn't. Anyway, it's not been reported anywhere so no need to discuss.

I'll trust Poch's opinion so we'll wait and see

That's the Poch who wanted Sissoko and was desperate for Berahino ;).

To be fair I think with some proper coaching Berahino would still be a good player and would also link with Kane well.

I could just be being a tad mental though given how uninspiring he’s been for stoke, but that could be down to poor management.

I dont really know that much about Moura. But has he stagnated as a player the last year? Or is he a victim of clubs like PSGs ever quest for superstar players in all positions? To me it seems like you really dont get time to develop or grow as a player in clubs like PSG and Man City. They want the full product from day 1.

Really hope we buy someone this window, to strengthen the squad. And Moura looks like potensial good signing.

Jim White’s face is getting fatter and fatter.

Anyway, big ‘breaking news’ just now on SSN saying we’re in the box seat for Moura.

Back to White, the annoying ****. He started this breaking news by talking about Sanchez’ possible move to Utd basically leaving a gap at Arsenal. Then goes on to say we’re in the box seat for Moura. Nothing to do with Sanchez or Arsenal. If I was an arsenal fan listening to that I’d hate Jim White even more than I already do.
