2015 Summer Transfer Thread


C47

Recommended Posts

Same as the Winter thread. All 2015 Summer transfer rumors, failed deals, completed deals and pipe dream wishes go here. 

 

Big news today as Marco Reus has extended his contract with Dortmund and the new deal DOES NOT contain a release clause. Any club that wants the German superstar will have to pay dearly now.

Rumors are that Danilo to Real Madrid is basically done. Good signing for a young Right Back. Danilo is incredibly talented. My guess is Coentrao is sold this Summer and Marcelo/Carvajal/Danilo/Nacho are the FBs

Pogba linked to Arsenal... Arsenal got £100m to spend and the only holes are DM and ST. I see Cazorla, Arteta and Diaby all leaving this summer. So Wenger will be dropping some cash on midfield.

 

Wenger gonna spend all but 25 of that on Pogba? That's probably what it will take.

Wenger will pay 50m for Pogba but no more, if Madrid is wishing to drop 55-60m on Pogba then good luck.  Wenger will pick up whoever Madrid will sell at discount.

Not just Madrid. PSG/United/Arsenal/Madrid and a horde of others all showing interest. He'll be 60m plus.

Paul Pogba is really good, but he's not worth what a club will inevitably pay for him.

 

Probably not. At least not yet. You're also buying him for the ceiling he's not even close to though.

but it's not like it matters to a club like Real Madrid. You really think james Rodriguez was worth his price tag? Money is just an object to them, they can drastically overpay for Pogba but it won't matter. So I still think he ends up at RM

That was my point for why Arsenal won't sign him. They have a ton of money, but they aren't going to be wasteful. RM doesn't care.

    • Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.   
    • Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
