For those who are liking Santi, you'll like Adrian just as much...the guy oozes quality

I really hope we pinpoint him as our main target, and then go after Isco...who is cheaper and better than Gotze

I want Mario Goetze but I don't expect him to join, think he'll be Spanish bound when he leaves BVB.

Agree0 Disagree0

This US Gooner got really a clue, lmao. Rather have Navas as Adrian. And Isco cant clean Gotze's shoes!!

Agree1 Disagree0

I really hope it happens but the simple fact it's been all over the media and it's a Jan target means I'm not getting my hopes up!

We shall see.....fingers crossed.

Gotze is quality, isco is too, will be 1 for the future... personelly i think we have a jem already in our ranks who will be on par with those... eisfeld! was better then gotze when at dortmund ive heard!

Agree0 Disagree0

Gotze still has that special something, you know it when you watch him...however he has been pegged back by injuries and his improvement has not been dramatic. Reus is the star man in dortmund but him and gotze are the threat...and if you saw the game against city...when hes up for it...hes unstoppable.

Adrian...should be our target...not sure about isco...because i feel he will go to city...sinclairs time is already up.

Also we cant buy llorente and isco and adrian...although if walcott wants to go...he can...id rather have the players who embody the style of play and who are more loyal.

Agree0 Disagree0

Better than gotze haha good one Z

ya, he is better than gotze...

gotze missed how many months? and his form is not there yet... what has gotze done in europe? does he start for germany that everyone is knighting him...

isco is the best and most important player on Malaga, a cl team as well....whereas gotze has hummels, subotic, lewandowski and reus.....all better players than him at the moment

how many of you have actually watched gotze play? one for the future yes, but when has he put dortmund on his back....like kagawa and sahin both did at diff. times..

isco carries Malaga every match now that santi is gone....that man for dortmund has become reus

I can easily see us getting Adrian Lopez in Jan, with Gervinho to Afcon (in my country by the way :-)) & the uncertainty over Theo's contract situation. Any of the Eds know anything about this "Croation Messi" we supposedly have been scouting can't recall his name now?

Usmanov Jnr {Ed002's Note - The situation is rather complicated but lenty of clubs have shown an interest in Dinamo Zagreb's Mateo Kovacic. Last summer (2011), Barcelona offered up a small financial payment for Kovacic on what I understand to be an 8 year deal with the first two years contracted to Zagreb followed by a six year deal with Barcelona. This would have "overcome" a number of issues with the regulations. However, three clubs have been involved in discussions with Dinamo (who have offered Kovacic a full professional contract) and the player's representatives and two clubs have put offers up for consideration. A couple of complexities remain, one of which is how much of an opportunity would he have if he moved - which is why he remains with Dinamo for an interim period of perhaps a year. I don't want to get in to who the clubs involved are, but at this time it is not Arsenal.}
