Mateo Musacchio

[Jazz]

That was yesterday's tweet. Also, not sure how much I trust a Norwegian expert on La Liga ...

It was about 20 mins ago

Odd that we might pay circa 20M for a CB with no premier league experience but we scoffed at 20M Lovren

In my opinion Musacchio is far superior to Lovren. Won't be as much as £20M either

You lot never learn.
Who got this guy's name on their shirt 10 minutes ago? Go on. Own up lol.

Never seen him play to be fair. Is he Argie and how come he's not in their Intl squad if he's that good

 

[Sweech]

Ugh, I hate how much I want us to get him.

I have a huge optimistic feeling we can land him, but there's that part of me that expects it to totally fuck up.

The good news is: in comparison to our usual fuck ups, this one still has plenty of time before the deadline to fix itself - Rather than getting fucked up ON the deadline.

Who said we scoffed? Or even made an offer?

Finally got to that Barca video. I mean, you can't tell much from one game highlights but what I gathered was this:

1) Fuck me, he's first to every ball and block. Very quick mind, good positioning too.
2) He's good in the air. Powerful headers, good blocks usually because of his positioning. Could struggle with some of the really powerful prem players in the air because of his height, but then we have other options we can utilise in those games.
3) He's quick. Not Walker quick, but good enough off the mark and determined running which puts off strikers. Outdid neymar in one clip there as I recall.
4) He's gonna make mistakes. Its just the nature of his game, he really tries to nick everything so occasionally its gonna go wrong.
5) He's good with his feet. Good technique running with the ball.
6) His passing is *****. Needs to play it short a lot more. If people get frustrated with Daws' passing then his is worse because they're not vaguely accurate either. BUT this shouldn't be an issue as I'm sure he can pass short and, when coached correctly, all he needs to do is slip it to Walker/Verts/LB/DM anyway. They can do the rest.

Overall very impressed, but that is just one game. To anyone who's seen him more regularly, are those 6 points along the right lines?

He should be in their squad, but the coach has his favourites as most do. Most people believe he should have been at the WC though

 

[Spurger King]

Not really. I don't see how quotes from their manager is "bullshit"

No, just the random crap from twitter that is just clearly lies or opinions. Might as well quote youtube comments.

It's because Lovren is not worth anywhere near that much

Mange som spør om Musacchio. Reell interesse, men partene skal være LANGT fra hverandre. Kontrakt til 2018, ukk €50M, VCF får kun 35% #cmore


HTH - note the date.

Plus Poch has seen Lovren close up for a season at Soton, and according to the rumours, targetted Musacchio early into his Spurs career.

As a RCB, Musacchio is a better fit alongside Jan than Lovren.

Getting a player like Musacchio (if we get him) is not just a case of having the cash to make an offer that'll be accepted. It's also about timing and what your rivals are up to. The Scousers aren't in for another expensive CB because they've just signed Lovren and already have Agger, Skretel & Kolo Toure.

I noted the fact that I have no idea what in fuck he's saying.

Well seeing as Poch coached Lovren I'm very confident in him picking on over the other.

Not saying he is reliable but he has tweeted since (30 minutes ago) saying our offer is miles off what they want

normally is with us isn't it?

He's saying the following: Spurs are interested in him, but clubs are far from each other. The player got a contract to 2018. Release clause = 50M Euros. Villareal get 35% of the fee. Nothing new tbh. Afaik, Petter Veland is reliable source. He's a La Liga expert.

More reliable than the Villarreal manager and JJetset?


I think not.
