I don't get it, what is wrong with Shez?
Posted on 7/4/13 at 12:13 am to NOTORlOUSD
he hasn't exactly been stellar. we can do better. especially someone who can distribute better than a U14 GK.

Besides his distribution, which is fairly overblown, there's nothing wrong with szczesny.
We'd be better off putting that money into our defense

remember that one time szcz got dropped for flappyanski and only regained his spot bc LF got hurt? yeah that was cool.
we could do better. and distribution is pretty key in our system. would be nice to have a competent GK in that area. szcz is worse at his position than any of our top defenders. and it isnt like if we spend on a GK we can't also buy a CB (which we probably won't do anyways).

um.
Yeah I really don't like the way he supposedly commands the back. no confidence at all sometimes.

higuain supposedly flying into london tonight for his medical (according to Sid Lowe, so, reliable). unveiled tomorrow maybe?
Here's to optimism:
Higuaín is in an elite list of players that scored 100+ league goals for Madrid. He scored his century of goals in just 179 games.— Kay Murray (@KayLMurray)
Only Cristiano Ronaldo (92 games) Puskas (105 games) Di Stéfano (115 games) Pahíño (115 games) & Hugo Sánchez (129 games) did it faster— Kay Murray (@KayLMurray)

in the realm of the purely hypothetical, I would go nuts if we bought Suarez. perfectly fits our system.
Top 15-20 player for sure, and he fits well in the system as you said, but I don't think I could handle the shame of having him.
Posted on 7/4/13 at 11:43 am to acgeaux129
I'd say top 10. there is no shame for that.

I dont think there is anyway in hell we'd sell him to another EPL team...
It would also contradict what he said about English media and no doubt that would intensify in London...
Anyway, the thought seemed to make Piers Morgan happen.
I'd say the argument could be made for him after Messi, CR7 and Iniesta...

yeah, no one here thinks it's realistic.

Not going to disagree, but depends on your criteria for ranking players of course.
I don't know, I kind of find it similar to the whole oil-baron-buying-Arsenal type of thing... kind of takes away from the integrity of the club for short-sighted gains. I don't care about his off the field stuff, but he's an absolute disgrace on the field IMO, and I'm genuinely surprised 'Pool fans defend him so much. I know it's en vogue to bash him, so I won't belabor the point, but just my opinion. He's awesome though.

I'm actually beginning to think he'll be here next year...
I think Higuain will give you 20+ if he stays healthy...
Now I'm thinking out loud, is Suarez's remaining 6 games confined to EPL or we would he have to serve them in any league?
Posted on 7/4/13 at 12:02 pm to TFTC
confined to England. FA has no power over any other league.
i think Higuain will bag 20+ as well. especially if we can get another creative attacker (Rooney, Jovetic, unknown targets...)

Yea saw that. Hopefully the deal will get done before the weekend.

Martinez is highly rated in our setup. The word is he's better than Szcz at that age. Iliev is just a bit younger than him and he too is highly thought of. I'm all about bringing in Marchetti, cutting Szcz loose in the next couple of years and developing Martinez and Iliev.
Posted on 7/4/13 at 4:59 pm to Friend of OBUDan
Szcz has seem to regress instead of improving once he got into the first 11.
