Nah. You saw how poor he was in that role for Germany. It's not his natural game.
ElConfidecial claims Jorge Mendes is trying to push through DiMaria to Man Utd
And reports that Lukaku is off to Atletico. Which makes alot of sense.
Also, Victor Valdes has failed his medical at Monaco and isnt signing for them. Peter Cechs agent claimed PSG and Monaco have enquired.
Valdes for free anyone ... ?
What makes you think he'd pass a medical at Arsenal if he failed at Monaco? These tests aren't arbitrary.
He is going to sign for someone during the summer, no?
Not if he's failing medicals.

Xabi Alonso replacement.
Not the same type of player though is he?

No he's much more offensive minded but I can see him being reeducated into a deep lying play-maker because his passing and vision are his best qualities. Klaus obviously disagrees about him being fit for that role though 🙂
Kroos has poor defensive skills. He'd have to be played along with an Alonso. Modric is their key midfielder so probably means Khedira/Di Maria etc one of them is gone
You have got to wonder what Isco and Illara are thinking..

Fuck no!
Kroos is brilliant as the deepest midfielder. If he signs for Madrid it is certainly to take over from the over the hill Alonso. Have no idea where the notion comes from that Kroos is some sort of liability defensively.
kroos-schweini hasnt worked for bayern or the NT. dont see kroos-modric working either. pairing him with xabi makes more sense
QPR agree deal for Ferdinand and agree fee for Caulker
Nice! I hope there's room in QPR for Lampard aswell.
Any word on the fee for Caulker? Wouldn't have been a bad move for us but he's probably overpriced.
Emre Can signs for Liverpool....anyone know much about him?
When he wants to do it he Can

Agreed. He is probably the best there as well. When he played there during oct-feb, Bayern was brilliant.

Has a release clause apparently so might not be too big. I'd like to sign him.
