Is it too early to be depressed that we won't sign a starter?

[AndyBlue82]

A quality first choice, world class striker I'd harder to find then right winger and we're struggling there. Diego will be fine! Just means Remy and Falcao will get more minutes

[ozboy]

That's one reason for getting Pedro. I think it must be 50:50 on costa already.

wrong thread.

What I don't get though is why we are following fpp so strictly when our title rivals city dont give a toss and they seem to be getting on fine while breaking the rules

They dont seem to mind paying fines and using less players. FFP is a joke as currently laid out. Fining clubs for spending too much is nonsense. Points and transfer bans are the way to go.

Every day sheikh mansoor wakes he knows while he was sleeping millions of dollars of oil was pumped out of his backyard, how much do we think he cares about fines...

That's the point.  They can fail to abide by FFP because they don't give a sh*t about fines.

SkyBet are now offering 2/1 on us signing Cambiasso

[PloKoon13]

I would love it if we signed Cambiasso, the man is a g.

[big blue]

I'd take cambiasso all day. Even at his age he is better than mikel and ramires.

[Scott Harris]

If Cambiasso is coming in would he be ahead of anyone or would he just be a backup ? Like Big Blue said above, i rate him higher than Ramires and Mikel, and if Cambiasso comes in i would rather he was played ahead of both of them. If Cambiasso arrives, then there really would be no need to keep Mikel.

Maybe abramovic doesnt want to make a loss!

[Sparkz]

Still think there will be a surprise signing made by us by the end of the window

[Theafonis]

I think Cambiasso could be a good signing. He's worked with Jose before, he's a leader, experienced etc.

 

We've also been linked with Thiago Motta, another who's worked with Jose. 

[jack_super_class]

Cambiasso? so much for giving Loftus Cheek a chance.

[abramovich]

Cambiasso is 35 next month and is long past it. If that's the kind of signings we're after, I'd be really upset.

Id 100% agree

[RickUK]

Seeing as the thread is now locked, Telegraph say Bruce Buck holding talks with Everton to see how we can settle the mud slinging going on and maybe do a deal

[AndyBlue82]

I'd pay him just to mentor RLC for a season

[CFCBlue12]

Cambiassio, Cesc, Matic will be one of slowest midfield.

[ForeverCarefree]

Cambiassio, Cesc, Matic will be one of slowest midfield.

The ball will always move faster than any player ever could.

[dkw]

There's a lot more to football than being really, really, really, really fast....

[Sparkz]

Cambiassio, Cesc, Matic will be one of slowest midfield.

 

Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets weren't exactly the fastest midfield and they dominated every team in world football

[PedroMendez]

You obviously haven't played FIFA

Bale. It's coming.

[the special one]

Bale. It's coming.

 

Nah, Messi.
