Paddock Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Don't know anything about him but he seems very expensive for his goal return. Lowensda and SimonButtle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Sources suggesting we've made a bid? Seems far too excessive. £40 got Lacazette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeQuince Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 There are so many other young Mexican players I'd rather have (and likely for less or MUCH less money). Here are a few: Jesus Corona (young and at Porto. Not only a versatile player for our front 4, but also has the nickname "Tecatito"... so, 2 cerveza names. Awesome.) Hirving Lozano (young and just went to PSV. Winger who cuts in on his right foot and has a great shot. He will be a big deal. His nickname is Chucky. I can't figure that out. I really wish he looked like Chucky) Erick Gutierrez (young, still playing in Mexico, can chip balls up the pitch like Gibson could, but offers more athleticism, a great shot and isn't hobbled) Orbelin Pineda (young and still in Mexico. Scrappy, tricky, box-to-box player) Jesus Gallardo (left back/left winger, young, still in Mexico) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaching Whoever came up with 40 million had to have accidentally hit "0." I'd pay 10 million, tops. I'm not even that impressed by him. Would love any of those three though!

Guest The Football Fanatic Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Just made a video on youtube about Raul Jimenez, if you want to see some of the goals he scored last season then click on the link I'd really appreciate it! markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Even the highlights reel is mostly penalties and tap-ins. Not heard of him before but if that's a "best of" then best swerved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they were almost all his goals last season except one (in the champions league) but he did only start 7 league games(because of Mitroglou and Jonas) and scored 7 which isn't too bad...

Haiku Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) From what I've seen I don't find him much impressive. Poor ball control, mediocre technique. £40 million is way overpriced. Portuguese league is shit anyway. Except the big three, the rest are comparable to English League Two and this guy doesn't look like a rising star among these inadequate players around. At that price, I would rather pass. Edited July 6, 2017 by Haiku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Apparently Everton have placed a £27.5m bid for him but Benfica want £46m (all according to the Sun so take it with a fist of salt) Still, its gone so quiet in the rumours section that I just wanted to post something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartyBlue Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 Im not sure the strikers we are looking at if you believe the media are good enough the last thing we need is another Niasse situation so let's not do a panic buy.Gonna be hard to find someone we "know" is good enough who would come to a non champions league club. Whoever we bring in is likely to be a bit of a gamble. On the bright side we don't need a 20+ goal scorer with how our team is structured now.

Sibdane Posted August 23, 2017 Report Share Posted August 23, 2017 I really want this rumour to die. This would be a terrible purchase -- he hasn't done anything to warrant that price. xsaint08 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
