Must be true if you read it on the internet
I see the joke candidate Slimani has yet to get a vote.

Leandro Damiao
Fuck Giroud
Sign all the strikers! :mourbringit:
United States of ‘Muriqi?
First of all, I'm not saying WJ is the tits in vinegar or anything, just what I've said before, he's a younger Llorente - very strong in the air, holds the ball up well, maybe a little more skillful. Good passer too. I don't watch as much Spanish football as I used to but he seems a very decent option for the money we want to spend. My Atleti-supporting mate describes him as a "good player, not top", which I think might be as good as we can hope for, that would seem to describe all the strikers we've been linked with. I know nothing about Piatek so can't compare him, but I'd say he's more "involved" than Giroud. I liked what I saw of Muriqi against England but I'm aware that's just one game.I'd have preferred Piatek, but given the circumstances tonight I saw we bite the bullet on Willian Jose if the price isn't too expensive. If it is and if Chelseamare genuinely willing then let's be honest we have a better chance of having a decent last spell of the campaign with him than without him.
Bill Madrid how much did you say he'd cost us?
I do know that WJ is popular in San Sebastián, among fans, teammates and the club alike, he's seen as a hard worker.
As for how much he'd cost, you can forget about his €70 million buy out clause. La Real were holding out for €25 million (£21.2 m), we have supposedly offered €15 (£ 12.7) million which is way too low. There was some talk of a loan till the end of the season with a commitment to buy, so there is some leeway. I imagine €22 million (£ 18.7m) would do it, as the player is now "unsettled" and his replacement, Isak, is in fine form.
I'd rather we brought in Ian Wright than have to put up with people referring to WJ as "Jose" though.

I thought Any Cunt was more of a winger?
Piatek hasnt really impressed me..Rebic is far far better than him. Hope we dont waste money that impacts the summer budget. Giroud on a 1-2 year deal would be acceptable..with the kind of service he is going to get, he will score a bucketload and especially against Woolwich - the celebrations alone would make it worth it..
