James Rodriguez

[Macca77]

Come on lads, he would cost 30+ mill. A loan deal would suit us though

[blueToffee]

Yeah, Talksport alert had us working on a complex loan deal for Rodriguez.

Could well be something to it given he’s out of favour and the previous links.

[Brownie]

Everton still working for Doucouré - the player wants to join and come back in EPL. Talks on with Napoli for Allan (€35m price tag). James Rodriguez (reported by @TeleFootball) is a priority fo Ancelotti: Carlo would love to sign him, the club have contacted Real Madrid. 🔵 #EFC

That’s from Romano so we can assume this one is on.

Kin hell

Really don’t want him. Don’t get how he fits in our system for starters

Surely we'd go back to a 4-3-3 if we signed him?

[TheRam]

This really is what you call an audacious swoop and I love an audacious swoop

You’d hope so, wouldn’t you.

Maybe why we played 433 against Blackpool.

His goal in the world cup was just so glorious and proper clever, especially the way he had a look at the keeper’s position as the ball was coming towards him, and then chested it forward to create room for it, and he would also really keep up our handsome quota, so fuck it, I’m sold.

Would love Sigurdsson to be out the door to facilitate it.

I mean, it’s all very unimaginative (last manager’s target, and two former players of our current manager) but James Rodriguez, blimey.

[Sir Stealth]

Its surely 4-3-3 if he's coming, and that middle 3 is entirely new which kinda suggests Carlos opinion on that midfield is similar to the fans

The names Bond, James Rodriguez

Goes onto to say talks have progressed and a deal may be close

[YankeeBlue214]

So does this mean we're prepared to drop €90m+ on Allan/Doucoure/James, or is the James rumor popping up in lieu of 1 of the others falling apart, or to push 1 of the others into action? 'kinell I hate transfer windows.

Does it at all concern you that his WC goal 6 years ago is the only thing anyone ever says about him? Don't get me wrong, he's a solid player when healthy, but that when healthy part looms large.

I don't even know what to think anymore.

[ally2]

I used to think he was great. No idea what he's like now though. And no idea why we'd want another 10. It's exciting yes but I'd rather get excited about a new right winger.

[Macca77]

Just how much are we planning to spend this window, Rodriguez, Doucoure and Allan will be close to 90mil, wonder if uncle Alisher crashed his penny jar in

Oh yeah, of course, but he’s pretty gorgeous though, isn’t he.
