Daniel James

[Nick-TopSpursMan]

Are you sure? Didn’t he come through at Leeds before going to Swansea?

Joined Swansea from Hull in 2014 when he was about 16/17 so I’m pretty sure he counts as foreign in Europe?

Traore or James

Why?

Who would you pick lol

 

[tobi]

I don't understand.

He's a speed merchant and nothing more, the same applies to Traore.

 

[adamsky]

Can’t think of a more underwhelming signing since Fraiser Campbell

 

[Nick-TopSpursMan]

Where’s the money .. what’s our net spending going to look like . Where’s the 150m , Chelsea have done more business post Roman

The cheap options baffle me too because we were meant to have a big budget.

Go for Neto, Diaby, Olise, Zaniolo or whoever and spend £40-50m if we need to.

We can still get an expensive LCB etc next summer because we will make huge revenues this season.

Traore or James

Why?

I don't mind Traore, he's got something. James is total toilet.
The one positive is he does seem to score the odd goal, and that's it.

 

[Guntz]

If it's a toss-up between Dan James and Traore...

Then pass me the baby oil.

Well damn that means he’s better than Traore then.

 

[Lukasz]

Jesus Christ, hopefully its bullshit.

id rather kept winks and played him on the wing.

I admittedly like Traore, but even his biggest detractor must admit he's far better than James.

 

[CrouchPotato]

It is just a smokescreen guys.

He is shorter than 6ft and therefore there is no way this is a real target.

Traore easily. Say what you like about him but he's at least single-handedly terrorised teams in the past. I'd be praying for Traore over James if it was between the two.

ITK has stated several times now that we enquire about lots of players, with varying amounts of real interest. Then it’s out of our hands how their agents and clubs deal with it, some of them run with it to drum up more interest.
It could be that we have just talked to Leeds to know the lay of the land. That Romano posts what he posts, doesn’t mean we are skint, stupid or without a plan.

I certainly don’t want us to sign him, but I wont panic until it actually happens. We’ll probably see many links to underwhelming players the next three days - for the sake of your own sanity, don’t believe everything you read.

 

[Guernman]

Every player we have brought in under Conte is over 6 feet tall and imposing. That alone should disqualify James.

I hope....

Yeah me as well.

Just not as keen as I was last window.

But yeah Traore over James everyday of the week

At least you understand it might be. Everyone else in here seems to have just accepted it's gospel.

Then you posted the Winks stuff and I went off you.

I choose neither

All true but if we've enquired the interest is there/real.

Just surprised he's even on our list.

That's the perplexing thing.

 

[GutBucket]

United fans on Red Caffe seem to rate him, seems to be similar to Lamela when it comes to work rate but doesn't score or assist enough. If we are chasing a goal don't think that he would be very useful, and we don't really do pressing either.

 

[cjbyid]

He must have a seriously good agent who has good contacts.
