Turan plays on the left no? So either Poldi on the bench or up front, if this is true.

Turan always looks really sloooow to me. Good player otherwise, but I think we'd have signed him two years ago if we wanted him.

We're just being used for leverage.

The lack of pace is the only slight on him I have

TambourineMan

He's a really smooth player, easy on the eye. Been one of the main reasons behind Ath. Madrid's good form in my opinion. Would certainly add a bit of flair to our current team.

I'm all for this. Accomplished technical player to add to squad depth. He's not the fastest but neither is Arty.

Clrnc

He has about the same pace as Santi. His pace isn't a problem, quality little player. Don't believe this will happen though, why would Madrid let him leave?

Financial issues.

Spain is fucked

yuv

I have wanted to see him play for another team in another league and Arda wants the same

Says the f&#@%#g agent? wouldn't want him here for that alone. I'm sick of agents calling the shots, clubs and played mere pawns.

Yep. Atletico Madrid have an insane amount of debt. They'll probably lose a lot of money on Falcao when everything is said and done. Realistically they can't afford to turn down any good offers.
