João Moutinho

[Chris12]

We were never going to get him though.

I'm actually glad it's over.

Ander Herrera would be a very similar and cheaper alternative.

Whats he like? Where does he play?

Athletic Bilbao. Similar to Moutinho, Arteta, etc

Him and Iker Munaian. PLEASEEEEE LEVY! Then we have decent wing cover along with PEA and Townsend.

 

[King of Otters]

Moutinho cost monaco €1m. Lisbon have a 25% sell on fee. James Rodriguez costing €69m.

Is this true?

Disgraceful shenanigans from Porto if it is.

Yet if it was Levy we would be singing the praises of him and saying "_____________ got Levy'd"

 

[Tspurs]

Levy is a Boss, not a complete mofo. But, yeah, he would f#ck'em but not that badly.

It's an admirable feat but you can't help but be slightly disgusted by a powerful club screwing a less powerful club out of a big cash windfall in such a blatant way.

Yeah, if Levy screwed United out of 10m we'd be giddy but if it was Wolves or Plymouth I don't think we'd be as proud.

 

[Anto18]

Exellent work by porto if true.

Probs harsh to say that the current squad is rubbish, they have some good players such as Dirar and Ocampos.

To be honest, I don't buy the whole "the french league is rubbish why would they move there" argument. Just because the league is rubbish now does not mean that it has to be rubbish in the future - kinda like Spurs, just because we weren't top four doesn't mean we shall never be top 4. These players are going to join a project in Monaco of a project in regards to raising Ligue 1 to a world class standard of football.

The whole league is terrible with the exception of money bags PSG. Lyon are shadow of their former self, Marseille came 2nd and conceded nearly as many as they scored lol

If lyon are 'terrible' we're only Gareth Bale away from being terrible

Like I said, similar to Moutinho and Arteta. So yes, hes a good mobile CM passer, that can sometimes score too. He's younger too. 23/24 I think

Mobile, can pass and even score? Where do I sign up. Sounds just what we need.
