Still think joaquin is one of the most naturally talented RWs in the world now....

valencia is NOT that "dump" , they won't "take" 10M for joaquin, unless we add one more player, maybe MOMO.

Vicente anyone?  What if we have to settle for a Downing, Gamst Pederson or Bently then do you think that would even be worth it?

Actually i prefer drente from real madrid. He isn't getting any games now...so if we are good...we can get him in a loan-cum-transfer deal.

He can play LB and LW...... And i can see him being one of the best left sided players in the world.

As for the right flank....we should be able to get joaquin. Valencia are in turmoil now...we should be able to bully that club and get their best players on the cheap.

I am sure joaquin will jump at a chance to join us...

Joaquin would be an excellent buy if he could regain his Betis form.

I thought we went for them when we could not get our primary targets for whatever reason. Babel can be great but needs time.

Is there any point spending £5m a time on players not good enough to fulfil the role? We have plenty of players, sadly not enough to make a really strong team. If Rafa hadn't spent so much on Sissoko, Crouch, Pennant etc then you could buy one or two top players and properly resolve the problem.
