ed 002 if we do manage to sign james James Rodriguez what's you're thoughts on him as a player and where do you also see carlo planning on playing him me personally i think its a great coup but just praying he can adapt to the premier league thanks for reply.

{Ed002's Note - CA knows him well but as the years have gone by he has been rather off the boil. It does not seem much, if any, of an upgrade on Gylfi Sigurdsson.}

Hate to say but I agree with Ed. I worry the Prem will pass him by. He has undoubted ability, but so does Gylfi, just feels like pace is king in the Prem these days, we lack it and James will only make that worse.

Unless Carlo has some master plan to play the game at a different pace to the rest of the league and rely on Allan and Gomes to dictate the pace of games.

Hopefully if we can bring doucoure in from Watford that could help as he has a good engine in midfield and i used to the pace of the premier league. We do lack pace in nearly all depatments though, really hope we can bring a new RB to help with that also.

{Ed002's Note - Zeki Celik (RB) Lille are willing to sell for €20M and don't want to negotiate too far from that amount. The player is looking to move to England at some point and the asking price has proven too high for Villareal who were offered to opportunity to bid for him. West Ham, Everton and Spurs have shown an interest.
Santiago Arias (RB) Napoli spoke with Atletico when they were concerned they were going to lose Elseid Hysaj and Everton see preferred choice Celik as too expensive and have enquired. Benfica spoke with Atletico but opted for Gilberto.
Alessandro Florenzi (RB) time at Roma is over so a loan to address the Everton RB issue - he has been used quite often as a RW as well.
Djibril Sidibe (RB) Player wants out but Everton would like to take up their option but would need the player to be persuaded to stay - Monaco had Milan saying they will take him on a loan to buy in January and they could look again in the summer.
Diogo Dalot (RB) loan option if Sidibe leaves.}

😂😂😂😂😂 streets ahead of siggurdsson, yes he’s has a few injuries and played for top clubs, but his goals and assists are outstanding for an attacking midfielder/ wide player.
