Zatman Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I think he was REal Madrid bound but Marcelo has been on sprakling form that Mourinho can do without him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 But...But...I wanted us to magically sign Coentrao Same here. I even tried offering my soul to the devil in exchange, but all he would swing me was Ben Thatcher and some chewing gum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 does that say 30m euros or is that me? if so :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 does that say 30m euros or is that me? if so :shock: Looks like Bayern offered 18, his release clause is 30 and Benfica want 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 17 year old Brazilian striker Lucas Piazón will move from São Paulo to Chelsea at the end of the season for £6.5m. Apparently he's "the new Kaka". Apparently. :? Is that because he has the same haircut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Dogg Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Coentrao to Bayern...Ribery/Robben offski? He is a left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbsboots Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 He can also play as a winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted March 30, 2011 Moderator Share Posted March 30, 2011 Coentrao wouldn't replace Robben or Ribery like for like. He might be able to play as a winger, but those 2 aren't even typical wingers. They're winger-cum-strikers (teehee). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Bayern just bought Luis Gustavo and he's been playing left back, Coentrao was basically a winger throughout the World Cup. New managers influence I imagine, Robben/Ribery might be sold as they are injury prone and on mega £££££££. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 but Gustavo is a centre half or defensive midfielder and is just there as Pranjic is not very good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do most of their damage cutting inside like a wide striker. Everybody is doing it at the moment, even England! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got an old school Marc Albrighton! It is the usual at the moment though, mainly because managers these days prefer fit, quick, attacking full backs, the space needs to be created for them, so it makes sense for wingers to play opposite sides. From what I've seen, Contreao, is your modern day full back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Bayern will need to get a few more defenders in if they intend on getting Coentrao in to play left back, Robben/Ribery don't track back and Mario Gomez is very much a useless lump that seems to get goals, Coentrao is suspect defensively. Lahm/Badstuber are the only defenders in that team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I'd imagine they'll get Neuer behind them this summer and then sign someone from abroad. Why they ever let Hummels go I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
