Posted March 17, 200817 yr I don't watch Bundesliga but i keep seeing this name linked to us http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/a ... ge_id=1779
March 17, 200817 yr Really clumsy looking player(tall guy) but seems to have an eye for goal. He seems to be fans favorite also. I have watched two stuttgart games this season from TV and in both occasions Gomez scored.
March 17, 200817 yr Well his the right age and 23 goals in 24 games in an impressive scoring record to say the least.
March 18, 200817 yr http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=625117 He has himself shown interest in the Premeirship. I think he should be better than Amauri because Italy-to-England transition is poor amongst players(Sheva) as they always tend to look for partners.
March 18, 200817 yr ..He's only 22. His price will be really high no doubt. If we lose Drogs he just might be good strike partner for Anelka... And wouldn't mind Chelsea having a really nice bloke like Flo or Zola. Wouldn't really do bad to our image, not that it really matters to me but in business point of view..Drogs probably isn't a player everyone likes.
March 18, 200817 yr Germany's player of the year at 22 and 23 goals in 24 matches sounds pretty darn impressive. Haven't seen him play, though.
March 26, 200817 yr Not a bad player but I doubt his ability to adopt to the English football. Don't take me to serious because I thought the same about Berbatov and he has proved me wrong.....
March 26, 200817 yr is that how our recruitment goes nowadays, sort of like the us army. we aint signing no god damn hippys.....
March 26, 200817 yr He has fairly short hair in that picture. Excellent, sign him up. Gullit4 will never approve of the transfer unless he either a) has floppy hair, wears an alice hairband or c) is Argentinian. Mights as well call off the transfer now
March 26, 200817 yr qaz, loz told me to tell you you're fired. not sure what that means. he thinks he's in the apprentice. poor loz.
March 26, 200817 yr qaz, loz told me to tell you you're fired. not sure what that means. he thinks he's in the apprentice. Was wondering if I could get you to bite...
March 26, 200817 yr Was wondering if I could get you to bite... you're a fisherman? and what does that have to do with loz? seriously, pm him.
March 27, 200817 yr I'm glad we have an inside man in the Mannschaft. Let the recruiting begin, Ballack... ...I mean if this Gomez is good enough.
March 27, 200817 yr I think it's pretty safe to say that if it were not for Gomez, Stuttgart would not have won the Bundelsliga championship last season. He's a bit off his goal scoring pace because he started the season with an injury. He's a big guy (6'3") and can be a physical player. Yes, he does look awkward on the field, but he has a nose for the goal. I watched the Germany Switzerland match yesterday and for both goals he came seemingly out of nowhere to strike both times. His first goal was really a thing of beauty. He also assisted on Klose's goal. He'd definitely be worth the money. As for adaptation, he will manage it.
March 27, 200817 yr His 23, yes there is allways an adaptation period (some take longer than others), but his the right age to be making that transition (as opposed to a Ballack or Shevchenko).
March 28, 200817 yr His goals were great against Switzerland. I didn't realize that he is so pacy for a tall guy. We should get him and Huntelaar to replace Drogs, if he leaves. I'm glad we got Anelka so we won't stand with nothing if Didi goes.
March 28, 200817 yr He is the best natural German striker since Klinsmann IMO. For 2 years he is living up to his hype. He was the top scorer in the last Bundesliga season and Germany's player of the year. This season he is just 1 goal behind Luca Toni despite having missed for about 5 games at the start of the season due to injury. He has 24 goals in 26 competitive games this season. You will have to spend a lot if you want him though. Half the Serie A is after him as well as Real. He will probably stay another year though to give his club a nice sum when he leaves at the end of next season.
April 3, 200817 yr So Stuttgart has set a sellin price for Gomez: The injury occurred in the same week that the club put a price tag of 50 million euros ($78.20 million) on the Germany striker, a figure that will be treated as merely the start of negotiations by his many suitors from Spain http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=522319&cc=5901
February 9, 201114 yr Chelsea's £36m bid for Gomez was rejected Roman Abramovich was prepared to shatter the £100million spending mark in the January transfer window, it has emerged. But an incredible £35.7m bid made by Chelsea's billionaire owner for Bayern Munich striker Mario Gomez was turned down. Despite the harsh current economic times, the Blues smashed the British transfer record by signing Fernando Torres from Liverpool for £50m and increased their spending tally further with the £25m addition of Benfica defender David Luiz. Abramovich also tried to land highly-rated Anderlecht starlet Romelu Lukaku during the January transfer window but again saw his offer rejected. The 17-year-old striker, out of contract in 2012, is one of the hottest prospects in Europe and has long been linked with a move to a big club. Link Seems like we were really desperate for a striker.
February 9, 201114 yr 36m for Gomez, oh god, surely bullsh*t but since carroll went for 35m maybe not.
February 9, 201114 yr I saw this tweeted by Honigstein. Pretty desperate to think about that sort of money for someone so crap. (Top marks though for finding an old thread rather than starting a new one - worth lots of brownie points! :) )
