It kind of smacks of getting gervais rather than Hazard at Lille to me.....but 3 million really is peanuts. I still don't actually believe it though.

Where does he actually play for Sociedad - CF or as a wide striker?
Mostly wide right, occasionally as CF and left winger. :coffee:Quote:

Would he start and if not, would he be happy with a bench role? Kind of the reason he left in the first place wasn't it?

I'd be happy with that and a replacement for Vermaelen if he decides to clear off (which he probably will) and a backup goalkeeper if Fabianski goes (i'd still like him to stay but think that's not going to happen).
Yeah let's buy Messi too.
Rather have Ronaldo :coffee:Quote:

Wash and repeat for CF.....?
Those are the questions that need asking.... to play devil's advocate. It is a nominal fee so I wouldn't be incensed if it happened but he will command a tidy wage and if we're going to get anyone out of that club, please let it just be the better player they have in Griezmann! I do think a player like this guy is one of the missing pieces.
I agree with invisible that getting someone prolific from a wide area really will ease the burden on the CF and open the options up of who we go for there. It will be near to impossible to sign a world class forward this summer but we can easily get a forward capable of 15-20 league goals, make no mistake.
I hear Lescott, Ferdinand, Cashley are out of contract. Is there a bargain for us to be had here? :d We should not forget that in Sagna we will be losing a right back and somebody who is exceptional at stepping in at CB too....
