Serge Aurier

[Primativ]

L'Equipe saying we've agreed a fee and a 5 year deal. Surely not?

link?

 

[Spurrific]

link?

Yeah, I'm not sure they have said that now. Talking THFC tweeted it (Twitter's allowed in player threads, isn't it?) but there was no link...

Depends if it is in L'Equipe or not I guess.

I have never believed that we are actually in for him tbh.

I agree but could be wrong.

He certainly doesn't seem like our sort of character but just maybe the reality is a bit different and Poch thinks he'd add something.

So much rumour out there it's difficult to separate the agent driven stuff from the rest.

 

[Cavehillspur]

£20million would be a hell of a deal in this market for him tbh, but I agree with the consensus just cant see it being true given his off the field antics.

 

[HildoSpur]

There is no doubt he is a talented player and would probably be excellent for us BUT you would have to worry about all the other stuff that surrounds him and the possibility of him acting like a total twerp.

As a player he's everything you'd want. He's a hard worker, a battler, an absolute athletic freak. Pochettino would turn him into the best RB in the world. As a person though he's a complete piece of shit. I don't want him anywhere near the club.

 

[Basil Brush]

So is it safe to say this?

On talent alone, he is one of the best options available.

On attitude, we shouldn't even go near him.

Personally, i am happy to take the risk if Poch thinks he can control him, especially at £20m in the current market.

 

[Guntz]

Aurier + Sanchez for Walker would be unbelievable business.

Chelsea being linked to Cedric Soares from Southampton in The Telegraph. Man United being linked to Pereira from Porto. Perhaps they aren't after Aurier after all. Does anybody know if Aurier is allowed to enter the UK?

This is a bizarre one. Seems to be gaining traction with more and more reports but no positive ITK at all.

Based on past indiscretions I wouldn't want him at the club but he is clearly a talented player and if Poch thinks he can work with him then I guess I trust his judgement on this more than my own!

i read somewhere that its waiting for court clearance

 

[YiddoTom90]

One of the best right backs for 20 mill is great buisness, sadly most players have attitude, aurier was just stupid that he aired it in public. Perhaps poch can coach that out of him.

 

[Twizzle]

if not he can still play the away UCL games

 

[talkshowhost86]

I can just picture the situation now.

Poch strolls in on match day....

Poch: Right, I need to speak to Aurier and Sissoko. They are playing right back and right wing in this game so we need to go through the tactics. Where are they?

Lloris: Ummmm...I hate to tell you this boss, but they appear to be on an island off the coast of New Zealand sending snapchats to each other about how stupid you used to look with long hair.

I still can't find this agreed deal info on L'Equipe's site/twitter, but a BBC journo just tweeted this...

That makes sense. I mean, him being allowed into the country is pretty key to the deal. Unless we are just buying him to play in the three away CL group games and one away EL knockout game...

Like with Rose?

 

[JB_Spurs]

I'd really much rather we spent an extra £2m on Pereira who's arguably just as good and isn't an Arsenal-supporting homophobe with a criminal record and a pending court case.
