You said Quote but I'd rather not see you consistently repeat yourself regarding Ferran Torres. Well I’m not going to change and I’m likely to keep repeating myself so you’re out of luck hoping that you won’t have to see me repeating myself… Surprised you found that hard to understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) I don’t think Felix is realistic and to tbh I’m glad. Something don’t feel right about him. Record signing at Atletico and only impressed in bursts. Goes to Chelsea and doesn’t really impress again. In both instances the clubs will be blamed rather than the player. Has he every been that impressive for Portugal ? Clearly he’s a very talented player. I just get the feeling he thinks he is a lot better than he is due to Ateltico being robbed with the amount they spent on him and with him also getting rewarded with a massive salary before he had really earned it. Top player with many years ahead but definitely some bad Juju. Edited July 7, 2023 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Felix on loan would be doable if he wanted to come we'd only pay half his wages so £125,000 a week Madrid would pick up the rest, I'm sure Chelsea only paid £100,000 a week towards his wages. I know we haven't seen the best of Felix at Chelsea but there is a player in there, the way he glides round the pitch with ball glued to his feet at times Felix behind Watkins would be I'm sure Emery would get the best out of him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly a player and probably comparisons with Coutinho before he exploded at Liverpool are fair. Hes worth a punt at a value that suits us not what he may become. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he's good, but he only played for a weak side here (Velez) and then went directly to the MLS which is a shit league IMO. For a good price, I'd take a flyer on him (Transfermarkt has him at 20 quid, which is the limit I'd pay for him at this very moment). Although I've become a hardcore premier league fan in the last years, I'm here because of the legend that is Dibu. I adore the guy. Argentina with Messi was a shitshow until he arrived. I love Bati, but I absolutely despise Verón, he really left a sour image here after his performance vs. England in 2002. Thank you for the warm welcome! We love Dibu too but refer to him as Emi more often. Yeah, I honestly don’t think you guys would have had a chance without him - his personality, ability and sheer strength of will was a huge factor. Question: is Dibu adored more than Messi? I’ve always followed Argentina, so many star players. Was devastated when Ortega got sent off (head butted Van Der Sar) at France 98 WC, what a goal by Bergkamp though. Wanted you guys to win then too, so many great players down the years. Batigol was always one of my faves, absolutely unique. Crazy shot on him! I remember Claudio Lopez and Crespo too.. a lot of players didn’t manage to shine for the national team as much as they did for their clubs. Aguero never hit the heights.. there was Saviola and Aimar too… One of my favourite goals was Almeyda from far out for Lazio! I wonder if Emi can persuade anyone in the current squad to join us Would love more Argentinians and South Americans to join… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will both be pleased… I only want him gone if we’re bringing in someone better or more suitable though. We need proper cover or competition for Kamara (hope he can stay fit, avoid injuries).
