Yeah, clearly he wanted that, but I don't see how practicing with those guys and not being able to play with them really helps him. Practicing with them occasionally would help, but practicing with the guys that you play with would make you better as a player and team (he'll need to know how to play as a team as he ages)

Pastore would be an amazing signing, built for the league as well. I don't think he'd come to us though, or Levy would be willing to pay the money required (both fee & wages).
There are some ridiculous loan deals these days.:avbpray:

He's also injury prone, on big wages and lost a yard of pace. He's past it now so he should go to West Ham
We are not going to be involved in a race with them hey so might as well move-on
That's the key word, we'll be doing a lot of dreaming and imagining. I would think we'll shift some but not all of the dead-wood, buy 2-3 more cheapish punts and that will be that.
Don't want Menez or Pastore at all. Menez is a moody player who reminds me of Adebayor when it comes to attitude and Pastore is just a more expensive and improved Lamela (and I follow Palermo so I've seen the lad for a while).
Both are good players but I'd rather we went for PL-experience. I'll be honest though, if we buy either I'll jizz in my pants like the hypocrite I am

Probably. Only ace we have is Poch. But I think Schneiderlin has his mind set on CL football.
a good friend of mine is a milanista and i think he masturbates over Menez.. we definitely should be all over him, maybe...maybe..swap for Soldado ?Don't want Menez or Pastore at all.

Pastore I don't rate, but i also like shiny new toys like the next guy.
He is one of the best CBs in Germany. If we land him for 18 mil Euro, we have done a great deal.
Agreed. It is improbable that he's the only player in the world who would fit in at CM for us.
Considering we've brought in some of Southampton's scouting talent, the key is to find the next Schneiderlin rather than pay hideous amounts of money for the man himself!
We just need to play it smart: identify someone with enough talent and the right playing style, and don't act overly prudent.
£15m should get a great young CM if you look carefully enough.
Unfortunately it looks like we will have to look else where for our backup striker to kane as neymar is apparently settled in barcelona: neymar transfer to england unlikely

it is the taking part that counts.
Pastore is fucking class. He's not a Lamela, he's much more cerebral type of player. he would be gold playing in the left for us. A slower Hazard.
Looking at the Coutinho performance, the general performances of players like David Silva, Sanchez we really miss a small quick footed and above all strong little player who can play between the lines in compressed space able to hold up the ball and thread nice passes.
We don't have amazing pace to play on the counter so naturally when we press or try and press the space becomes compacted. Eriksen is not quite that type of player, he is not strong enough or quick footed IMO, it feels like if we are to play the way we are this type of player is essential. Only Dembele really offers the ability to hold the ball up in tight space but he lacks the creativity.
Does anyone know who would be a realistic target who could fit this bill and do you agree that this type of player is needed?
