First eye test says he might have tunnel vision and plays like a winger, a scorer without assisting much. He is strong, fast and a bit too fast. He can still be effective and dangerous like in that WC game against Honduras I believe when he scored a hat trick.
Makes the wrong decision 90% of the time (not passing in the right moment, running into multiple defenders, etc.)
One of our best transfers in years, 30mil is a ridiculous bargain if you look at the sums other players are transferred for.
Guess Chelsea is back....All Spaniards scored a goal - Pedro, Diego and Azplicueta (Costa being a false Spaniard)
Coman (Juve) transfer to Bayern nearly done, according to Gazetta, BILD and RTL France. Would make sense, now that Juve is close to a Cuadrado Transfer and with Sammer saying Ribery's foot is making no progress at all. Rumored transfer sum is 20mil, would be awesome if this transfer came true, he's exactly what we need, one of Europe's biggest wing talents and would be a Ribery successor. Costa would be able to play right wing, his true position.

Under the radar move by 1899 Hoffenheim - Eduardo Vargas - one of the Pillars of the Chilean team underrated guy next to Alexis, Arturo and Bravo.
Yeah, Cech saved it for Arsenal but Arsenal's defense was something straight out of playground. In fairness, Arsenal should have won. The linesman messed up on the offside call. Ramsey was clearly onside on that goal. But that arsenal defense.....Both Kocielny and Mertasacker were out and were replaced by youngsters Paulista and Chambers. The communication between the two was non existant. Paulista was pretty good actually but Chambers.....oh my Chambers... In the first half, he made somewhere around 8-10 passes to Liverpool players. He literally had more passes to the opposition than to his own teammtes!! No hyperbole! Cech was trying to encourage the guy but you know deep down he was fuming and would have lost it if they conceded. Chambers is absolute garbage. Another overrated English player. Arsene Wenger hates spending yet he went out and spent 16M on this guy. LOL FAIL. Arsenal finally figured out that if they want to avoid Chambers fuking it up, they need to attack on the other side. Second half was a different story. But of course the typical Arsenal offense. Creating chances after chances but Giroud always there to waste them. Arsenal can give up any dreams it has of being a title contender with that horrendous defense (their defense has been bad even with Per and Kocielny in there this year) and Giroud to throw it all away on the other end. Clear weaknesses which they failed to address in another transfer window. 3rd or 4th place finish in the EPL. Early out in the UCL Again.
True, it's strange how affordable the Chilenian guys are, especially after their Copa success. Should be a good Firmino replacement.
Leverkusen with their biggest game of the season (CL qualification vs Lazio) and Son is at Tottenham for his medical, wow. Transfer will be around 30mil.
I'm trying to work out if Son is worth that price tag. Rooney finally scored! Good grief, hope it's a start of a turnaround for him.
Not even close to being 30mil, most German fans are baffled. On the other hand, EPL have been throwing huge sums at mediocre players for a long time now. Let's say it like this: Looking at other transfers, mainly involving English players, 30mil for Son is okay for a Premier League team. Performance-wise he's not even worth half of it.
Done deal by Tottenham? heung-min? I thought they were going after Saido Berahino really hard. On another note, De Bruyne is nearly a done deal with the Citizens. And Klose might keep them out of the CL altogether.
Nearly done, Heung-Min Son is going through a medical check there right now and is not playing in tonight's CL qualification. Leverkusen 2:0,niceee. De Bruyne deal done apparently, 75mil plus bonus payments, this is sick. The sum is warranted though, guys like Bale and Neymar did less and went for more money. He'll be paid 20mil/year, pretty sweet.
