his reputation is a bit overblown and Italy havent produced a good striker in a long time probably the last one was Gilardino if dont count the madness of Balotelli

but he fits a David Moyes style physical player but he is a bit more than that which we probably wont see

Alberto Gilardino wasn't a good striker.

OK poacher, useless at everything else. Not even close to Immobile who is also not very good.

Why though, he is pretty shit and St Maximin much better

He wasn't great for Leeds last season, think Howe likes his workrate and directness though and he's certainly not sold on ASM given Newcastle arguably played better in the games he missed injured from Jan last season.

All the buzz around him for years and tagliafico joins lyon for 4m

Maybe bassey will end up covering LB

Coming up to 30 now. Amusing to think if Man. United had wanted him then Ajax would've probably premier league taxed them 15-20m!

Has anyone taken Belotti yet? Surprised with his style West Ham didn't actually look at him given he has good workrate and is a box striker but guess on a free he wants ridiculous wages.

He has been available for 7 months on a free and nobody has made an offer except Toronto. He really isnt great Belotti

He wanted to join Milan but they took Origi instead

I never got the hype about draxler. 

He was good as a young player, I'm sure he set the record for quickest player to 100 bundesliga games (which havertz or sancho has since beaten) for a good schalke team and national side

Problem was hes apparently a mardy **** who did things like go on strike and miss training to force his transfer, then at PSG he's never played enough or really nailed down any position, it'll be interesting to see how they play him, he's somehow kept his reputation but in reality he's had a bad few years, that wont stop an overreaction to the move

Draxler to Newcastle, might be first mistaken transfer they make

Couldn’t land their attacking options so going for the big name hype option - you love to see it. I’m sure the Geordies will lap it up.

Kasper Schmeichel signing for Nice.

Hope his injured hand gets through the medical...

What's going on at Leicester? No signings, and the goalie's off? Looks like they may get Leno to replace him, which is no disaster, but still they're being very weird this window.

That Scamacca guy that West Ham just bought for £35M looks like a real beast, would have loved to have him leading our front line.

He only has one season as a starter though and Sassuolo are an attacking team, he hasnt done much in his seasons before that

Its strange, apparently by sounds of it they are in sell to buy mode but Tielemans doesnt see to want to leave and thats who they want out. Not sure who else is really a sellable asset as think Fofana just recovered from his injury maybe Barnes and Maddison are not as highly thought of as people suggested, so maybe Schmeichel wages were as best they could get, he is 36 soon so doubt will be a big fee

He gets a bit of stick for his finger thing vs us last season but he always comes across as a decent guy off the pitch

Yeah, I know other fans hate him but he seems pretty sound IRL. There was some talk the other day of Maddison maybe going to Spurs but can't see him fitting the formation or really having the right temperament for the manager.
