Swansea make £12million bid for Norwich striker Nelson Oliveira. #SwanseaCity #ncfc
he was fantastic last season, and scored a great range of goals, not just headers. he's hardly less mobile than Janssen as well. He's as fit as anyone could be so he can play the way he does for another 5 years or soI'm not convinced on this. Surely less mobile than Janssen, and OLD.
I get the appeal in a PL loan for Janssen (I don't want to give up on him yet), but is Llorente really a better option?
Sounds like player wants Chelsea
Very good friends with Morata and Conte.
Wow, we are trying to buy a 32 year old target man when we don't play wingers. This is really surprising. Rate the player but it would have been nice to get a forward who was good with the ball at his feet rather then the Spanish Crouch.
He will increase our average squad age by about 5 years. Its an odd choice imo and out of line with our usual targets i.e. because he's 30+. Clearly Poch feels he can offer us something so happy to trust him on this one. He's not a bad signing at the right price.
