Andre Gomes

[Slartibartfast]

I don't know spanish, but I'm guessing seducir means attracted in spanish, its got a totally different connotation in engilsh.

Nope. If you watched The Graduate in Spanish, Dustin Hoffman would say "Señora Robinson, estas tratando de seducirme. Verdad?" The word for attractive would be atractivo. But the word seduce doesn't always have a sexual connotation (even in English). It can be used in the same way as attract or entice. But the word used in the article was seduce.

Sometimes you don't initially like a transfer but once you've thought about it you accept it and even like it, the Mkhitaryan one for example. This is not one of those transfers. It is a bad transfer, I don't like it and I will be very disgruntled if it happens. Hopefully this rumour dies a swift death.

Midfielders who would cost around the same or less I would take over Gomez:


Ziyech (Ajax)
Ceballos (Real)
Banega (Sevilla)
Illaramendi (Sociedad)
Mandragora (Juve)
Allan (Napoli)
Luis Alberto (Lazio)
Praet (Samp)
Ndombele (Lyon)
Meyer (Schalke)
Yazici (Trabzonspor)
Demirbay (Hoffenheim)

most of those for less then 20-30mil is silly talk

Goodluck getting any of them bar Meyer and maybe Yazici for less than 20m

Seem we seriously in for this guy if RAC1 confirm we are in talk. Anything between 15-20M I wouldn't mind it

 

[el_gibor]

Apart from Demirbay and Luis Alberto, I can’t imagine any of the others moving for much more than 30M.

Lyon rejected a 45m bid for Ndombele

 

[el_gibor]

Lyon rejected a 45m bid for Ndombele

From whom?

Wasn’t his release clause something like 7M?

Was expecting them to be looking to turn a profit but over 40M within a few months? Lol

I think we need another mid because emery seem going with 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 diamond. One think about this transfer it will limit Niles chances that I don't like

From Sp**s.
Iirc he was on loan at Lyon and probably they paid 7m for him.

I know he was on loan and they paid his RC. Wasn’t expecting them to be demanding such silly money soo soon.

But fair enough if true.

If this happens it is probably because Ramsey is going.

There really no talks about him going in fact the negotiations talks progressing well

 

[tap-in]

Either that or Emery wants Ramsey to play further forward, more like his role for Wales.

 

[Preacher]

Gomes can play, has plenty of talent, but his mentality raises big questions. Very quickly folded under pressure at Barca.

Says who? All we know is talks are ongoing. Nobody reliable has said talks are going well. The fact we’re almost at the end of the window and he hasn’t signed tells you talks aren’t going well.

Ramsey, Xhaka, Torreira, Elneny, AMN & Guendouzi. I think that's enough.

If Ramsey leaves, I riot.

I personally don’t think it would be that bad if he leaves in terms of the starting line up. Xhaka and Torreira with Özil in front of them and Mkhi and PEA either side. Then I’d sign a winger instead of a midfielder to replace Ramsey. I don’t really see the point to this if Ramsey stays or goes.

Well the thing that give me hope he'll that Emery want him to be our key part in our midfield and want to build a team around him.
