Bewildered Posted 2 May, 2016 Share Posted 2 May, 2016 Dries Mertens http://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/southampton-to-make-formal-bid-for-dries-mertens-amid-napoli-ext-456111 I can't see us paying in excess of €30m the story suggests is needed to get Napoli to sell.

Shance Posted 2 May, 2016 Share Posted 2 May, 2016 Right.. Just **supposing** Liverpool came in for Mane. It's been rumoured. Now.. I would rather he didn't go there BUT if it was to be considered..who would be adverse to taking Jordan Ibe in P/x?... I mean..£25M cash + Ibe. I'm valuing Ibe at somewhere between £10 and £15M Ibe's wages wouldn't be too drastic either.... So you think Mane is worth 35-40 mil? Are you mental?

Sheaf Saint Posted 2 May, 2016 Share Posted 2 May, 2016 So you think Mane is worth 35-40 mil? Are you mental? In a market where Raheem Sterling is worth £50m, and considering the new TV deal starting this year which will inflate transfer fees even more, I wouldn't be at all surprised if somebody was willing to pay that much for him.

van Hanegem Posted 3 May, 2016 Share Posted 3 May, 2016 I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I think both have shown enough to be considered ready for the PL even if both have the potential to be a lot better then they are today. Well, it looks that we're going to find out who is right about Janssen next season. There's talk in Holland that some club from the PL has made an opening bid of 11 million pounds and that's very serious money for a club like AZ. I hope you're right about him as it would be a shame when another Dutchman leaves too early for the money instead of building up his career the right way.

sotonist Posted 3 May, 2016 Share Posted 3 May, 2016 So you think Mane is worth 35-40 mil? Are you mental? he's better than Lallana. There's not an english premium but there is an everybody getting a lot more revenue than before premium and probably a more teams would like to sign him premium.

Alanh Posted 10 May, 2016 Share Posted 10 May, 2016 Might be worth looking at Serge Gnabry as a replacement for Mane. Fits the same profile as Romeu and Bertrand in terms of not getting a regular run in the first team at a top club. The downside is that he didn't make an impression at West Brom earlier in the season, but I guess it's difficult to make an impression there unless you are a 6ft plus centre back.

VectisSaint Posted 10 May, 2016 Share Posted 10 May, 2016 lol @ utd. Sanches was their main target. Seriously doubt that he was really their main target. 18 year old with 24 appearances in Portuguese top league, come off it. They might have been after him, but they have bigger fish to fry in terms of their re-building for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
