Winter 2013/14 Transfer Window DISCUSSION Thread

Apparently where are now in for this bloke

Anyone know anything about him?

Idk too much about him, but he has been awesome this year. 11 goals tied for second on Serie A with Tevez.

I saw that on the Metro.

Didn't he recently score a hattrick in 10 minutes or something like that?

Not sure that it was in ten minutes, but he scored all four goals when Sassuolo beat AC Milan the other week. I know he is highly rated but don't know a lot about him.

Scored a hattrick against AC Milan in 30 minutes, that's all I know.

Yep, put 4 away against Milan in the 1st half.

I watched that whole game, and he really, really impressed me, even aside from the obvious fact he scored 4 goals. Every goal showed off a different skill, and he was very heavily featuring in their all round play. I wasn't sure how this guy was so under the radar. Then the commentator mentioned he was only 19 and I just thought we need to snap this guy up, surely he'd leave a bottom Serie A side for a top level PL team? Then he said he was on loan from Juve and I gave up any hope. So the fact we seem to be in for him is very exciting!

However my whole opinion on him is based on 1 match I watched, and the hype, so don't read too much into it!

It also begs the question...if his potential is that high why would juve sell him?

Can't help but think it's some media bs...

@ Deuce @SpursLegend

Have just seen this

We shouldn't get our hopes up

 

[Carlspurs]

The only juventus forwards i see us signing are either vucinic or quagliarella

Berardi is excellent and one of the brightest young stars in world football. It makes almost no sense that Juventus would part with him. If we got him for only 15m it would be great business. However, file this under the extremely unlikely category.

We would have to make sure he spoke English though??

He could speak every language and we'd still probably ruin him.

Another thing about Berardi I just remembered that he is co-owned by Sassuolo and Juventus. I'm not sure how transfers work in that situation.

From my very limited knowledge, you have to purchase both, for want of a better phrase, parts of him and agree a fee with both clubs.

Oh man the thought of Daniel Levy negotiating the same transfer twice is terrifying for all involved parties.

Into the last week and our squad still looks vulnerable. Not good enough keeper LB striker cover. I hope Jan is going to be happy to play LB again, because I can see it happening.

Knowing Sherwood, I think he's much more likely to play Fryers there. Fortunately.

You forgot the Lion!

 

[Carlspurs]

You forgot the Lion!

i don't think juve would let go of llorente especially after he has been finding his feet after a rather slow start

 

[DG4125]

We need more "have we signed Player X yet?" They seemed to work in the summer.....

Have we signed Damiao yet?

[John Thomas]

Have we signed Hulk yet. He's coming, he's coming here I tell you.
