Arsenal's technical director Edu has already denied that Arsenal were interested in signing Paqueta, stating that while he admired the player they were already well stocked in the attacking mid area.

I don't believe anything these days. Nothing.

 

My son said he liked the song we had on in the car this morning, but there was something in his voice that made me think "This kid is a fucking liar"

Stop playing Bay City Rollers then.

Paqueta or Maddison? If you could choose one for us to sign this window 

 

different players. apples and oranges. the dead ball delivery of Maddison and his willingness to experiment and deliver a final pass and or score means he needs less defensive responsibility. think with what Howe wants, he'd rather take Paqueta, though Maddison is probably one of the top 3 at what he does in the premier league.

How corrupt is football btw.

Barca crippled in debt and fraud.  Yet still buying class players :lol: 

 

 

 

They talk a bit about the De Jong situation from about 22:40 here. Barcelona have sent the player a letter suggesting that there was criminality involved in the signing of his last contract and that that contract should be annulled and he should return to the terms of the original contract he signed when he joined from Ajax. 

 

The Dutch Players Union has suggested there is evidence of extortion in the way Barcelona are dealing with their players. 

 

It's high time UEFA stepped in and did something about a) their continued spending in the face of massive financial problems, and b) their treatment of their existing players.  Obviously that won't happen but it sounds like they're behaving appallingly.

So you're saying we're going to rescue De Jong from Barcelona?

Unfortunately I can see Silva going to Barca and Man City coming in for Paqueta. Silva has apparently been asking Citeh to sort a move away for him for a season or two, specifically to Spain. So unless Pep convinces him to stay for another season, or Barca have finally run out of their funny money, then Silva's potential move could really fuck up our bid for Paqueta. As for Rider's audio clip, if we're in for Maddison we should be interested in Paqueta, because neither are wingers by trade, they're number 10's. Maddison is on record as saying he doesn't like playing wide, but both can and have played wide in their careers.

Is Ryder daring to imply that Bruno and Paqueta can't exist in the same side, voicing over multiple images of them playing together for Lyon. Not withstanding the fact they line up for Brazil as well. :doh:

This is the kind of thing I think we need to be used to. Absolutely no links with him but a player who makes a lot of sense once you have a read about him. 

 

It's tenuous at best, but Howe was asked about whether he was considering players from the Portuguese league after the Benfica friendly, more or less said that he was, and praised their technical ability. The journalist in the Sky video seems pretty certain we're interested, so it comes down to how reliable he is.
