He is but isn't he short term too?

When you're this close to a title, why have the handbrake up?



I supported moving from Higuain to Suarez but how you don't follow up the 40 million with 45 or 50? I don't know.

the thing with the suarez deal is that as soon as liverpool saw that £2 extra over the 40 mill barrier, and the press made a big deal out of it, they were never going to sell suarez to us. That was just taking the piss, and was the epitome of wenger scrooge mcducking. They should've come in at 41 mill or something, but they didn't, and fucced up, so I can understand them not upping the offer because it just wasn't going to happen.


However, with the Draxler thing, we had 0% leverage over Schalke, just give them what they want and pay the buy out clause if you really want him ffs :snoop:


and now we're in need of a midfielder, so Draxler would've been an even more perfect signing :mindblown: cos we could've stuck him in midfield until our people came back and then wenger could've started with moulding him into the striker like he purportedly wanted to


and he ain't coming in the summer neither, cos he will obvs cost more, so its dueces to him

Draxler at Chelsea, that's a scary sight. :whoo:

I can respect not going for Berba but he's said on a few occasions he doesnt want short term fixes but all we have looked at besides Drax is short term fixes.

The Ramsey injury I feel for him, hard to replace a top 5 midfielder in the world and the best in England.
Draxler is going to Bayern :stopitslime:

Bayern not letting these German kids leave the country anymore.


The Ramsey injury is why a CM was needed above all else. It was late in the window too. And Flamini got a red card.

Despite his off-field reservations, the 22-year-old has signed a contract at Oakwell until June 2014.

The 'female situation' Frimpong is fearing is similar to Barnsley's former Macedonian Georgi Hristov, who complained about the beauty of girls in South Yorkshire.

'I'm finding it difficult to find a girlfriend in Barnsley, or indeed settle into a decent way of life,' he said.

'The local girls are far uglier than the ones back in Belgrade or Skopje, the capital of Macedonia, where I come from.

'Our women are much prettier. Besides, they don't drink as much beer as the Barnsley girls which is something I don't like at all.'

Mourinho on buying a striker. "Many people don't understand why we don't do [business in January] but, in the summer, you will understand."
:banderas:
will salah play on monday?

Mourinho undecided if Salah will be involved against Man City.

'He was there two or three days, not training, and today he trained for the first time.'
