Super Super Quality Transfer Speculation & Shit

[Özim]

found out something interesting about gervinho and hazard. when hazard and gervinho played in same team, they played roughly the same amount of games, with goals scored, gervinho had about double what hazard did and assists were 16 to hazard and 14 to gervinho

Odd that Lille sold him for so much more then, Hazard always was the gem in the team, he's younger, has more vision, scores and creats more goals and is more intelligent on the ball.

There's no comparison, we chose the cheap option, like most of the time these days. If you asked anyone with football knowledge who they would prefer in their team on a purely football basis it wouldn't be Gervinho.

I don't know where you pull these things out from, but they really don't convince anyone tbh.

I think it's fair to cut Wenget some slack until Euro 2012 is over.

That is of course unless we're after players who won't be involved.

Dempsey.

Come on dude, he'll say the players prices are overinflated after the Euros, if we wait till after Euros it's bye bye decent signings.

Can't agree. If that was true the price difference wouldn't be so great.

Think you scuffed the quote to be honest.

Bayern Munich are after Dzeko apparently.

Lot of Walcott to Chelsea rumours flying around. I didn't realise he only had 1 year left on his current deal....

Yep and I bet he's quietly smiling to himself after his turn around in form. It is strange how there has been nothing in the headlines about it, almost as if everyone expects him to stick around. a move to man u or chelsea could definitely happen, so you have to bloody well hope the negotiation team are dealing with this urgently too.

its a misleading stat as it comparing gerv's 93 games for the club, against hazards first 93. hazard went on for another 100 games and that is where he started to make his name.

i don't mind gerv, i've got a little more patience with him as his first half season was ok.

I don't mind Gervinho either think he has some decent skills, though his lack of end product is a problem. Hazard though is a level above talent wise.
