think he'll join chelsea. costa is an option, but not sure who else would be a better signing than draxler. mandzukic?
How does Griezmann compare to Draxler?

Not in this market you won't
Maybe 3-5 years ago

Spritelier although less powerful.
Not convinced either are a perfect fit for us.
I'd quite like giovinco for the left
Hmm. Don't know really. I have a feeling about Griezmann but that's probably just because he's scored plenty of goals this season.

Giovinco? Draxler would be way more exciting.
Giovinco will never be anything more than flashes of talent. Destined to be talisman of a club like Atalanta or Bari or somewhere like that.
Am I the only one who thinks Draxler looks somewhat similar to Pires?
E: Not as good looking though.

True. It'd be a gamble.
I'd actually give Chambo a run on the left too
Why I brought up giovinco by the way
draxler is much better than giovinco. i'd say draxler could be on the same level as hazard within 1-2 years here, but not sure we really need him. i think we should wait until the summer, focus on bringing in costa and then assess the situation.
Hazard has a lot more ability IMO. Much faster, better 1v1.
Wish we'd got Bernard
Heard he's flopped in Ukraine.
Get him on the cheap then
Apparently Schalke are the ones pushing the Draxler transfer. Maybe he can be got for less than the release clause.

Not a bad comparison. His style is more German obviously but that's the kind of role I think he would play for us.
I'm for Draxler as long as his transfer doesn't prevent us from buying Costa/Benzema in the summer. His finishing is excellent and his dribbling is penetrative and at pace. The closest we have to a player of his type are Podolski and Walcott and neither are good enough to be starters if we want to be a top side. Hazard and Gotze have more all-around ability but Draxler is more direct and more of a goalscorer and that's the kind of player we're looking for.
