The January Transfer Scouting Thread

[wishkah]

it's positive news so will choose to believe it as gospel.

This is what's bugging me a little though.

If everyone but Conte wants Porro and he would rather someone else, we may then have 2 RWBs that are not going to be used by Conte.

So whilst everyone is clamouring for this player and they will be really happy to sign him, I'd worry about what that may cause between Conte and others.

Reports could be way off though and he may actually like the player so let's see

My main criterion for new players is that their name translates as Peter Spliff from the original Spanish.

unsure how reliable the source is but there’s been plenty of smoke around this one.

Thought he had a €40m release clause ? So we offer 10-15m less.. Doubt we get him for that with Man City having %.

Maybe we are offering our sell on % as part of the deal.

If Porro has any legs to it, I’m super confused. I thought all the craziness behind the scenes would negatively impact any potential business in the transfer market. And that everything had gone belly up. So, I suppose that means this news is horse manure. Which is a pity. As he’d be a good addition.

I see Liverpool are now linked with Sofyan Amrabat.

Presumably the same Sofyan Amrabat who sent this place spiralling into the third circle of hell when he was linked with us in January, “no top club would ever entertain him”, “why isn’t Conte as smart as people on this forum”, etc.

1. Liverpool being linked with him doesn't mean Liverpool want to/will sign him

2. It was Conte/Paratici who decided against signing him, so presumably they didn't think he was worth the modest fee either? I doubt they refused the option based on the opinions of this site.

If be surprised if it were every single transfer addition was proving to be a sticking point.

Doubt we’d be in for him if he didn’t have legs.
