Adrien Rabiot

[robertgoulet]

Paredes is too slow for Poch's pressing style. Not every CM that's on the market suits our needs.

Believe Herc mentioned he was on our radar in the summer but had bigger clubs after him and would be difficult.

Edit: may be thinking of a different Paredes currently in Argentina.

Edit x2: was thinking Palacios.

Barella is apparently of to Napoli

Which opens the door for Diawara to us!

Palacios from River Plate was who that was about.

Aaaah yea you right.

Poch on the phone with Rabiot:

" I take it you've seen the news about Frenkie to Barca? "​

COOOOLLLLLLD BLOOOODED

 

[King of the Lane]

Refusing to get drawn back in on this one. Dont do it to yourselves boys lol

 

[robertgoulet]

At least Rabiot would know he wouldn’t be purchased over if he were here. Can’t afford it!

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

For him to even meet with us something must have changed with the ‘agreement’ he had with Barce. Hopefully Chelsea don’t swoop in...

Already ordered the shirt.

Not sure what you mean.

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

I’m like a sad , desperate, heterosexual monk; years of abstinence in the metaphoric transfer window and I’m getting tingly at the remote prospect of a Frenchman

Barcelona signing de jong and KPB. They don’t need him now.

I think there's a reason (or a few) as to why his value keeps depreciating, and it's directly related to his and his mother's attitude towards everything. He seems like an entitled prick but I trust Poch's judgement on being able to connect with players and his determination when bringing new players to the club. So if we sign him with all of these red flags, then it must mean that Poch feels like he can get a handle of him.

True it can be problem but then I don't think poch would want him from start.
And his low price now is because 6 months left in contract.

I would say go for it and if it wouldn't work we can sell him and prob do a profit from it

 

[Timberwolf]

If we somehow pull this one off I guarantee within 2 years we'll be baying for his blood and burning effigies of his mum on the Tottenham high road.

But fuck it, signings are fun. SEAL THE DEAL LEVY!

In all seriousness I wonder, even if he proves to be a cretin of the highest order, he's top quality and might help convince Poch, Eriksen and Toby that we have some ambition in the short term. Wishful thinking but you never know.

Barcelona signing de jong and KPB. They don’t need him now.

KPB was bought as back up striker but the De Jong signing might have changed things

 

[Timberwolf]

Barcelona signing de jong and KPB. They don’t need him now.

KPB has spent the last 3 years playing as a forward/false 9. He won't affect Barca's midfield plans at all.

 

[gavspur]

So, he has very little time on his contract left. What would be accepted as a bid? £20-£25mill?

Dembele - £11mill
Jansen- £10-£15mill

Rabiot covered. Very Levy like.

 

[Paolo10]

If it was a smokescreen I doubt it would be coming from French sources, and I doubt we'd be going to the extreme of Pochettino meeting with him personally.

Where'd you get this from just out of interest?

Article a page or two back. Apparently poch is going to have a phone call with him to try convince him

 

[Paolo10]

A phone call might make more sense tbh.
