I wonder what is Gerrard trying to do ?

Oscar to China !
Draxler to PSG !
Football is getting messed up !

So Arsenal failed to sign Draxler.

Were Arsenal really trying to sign Draxler? I don;t believe most of the transfer talk in the media until it actually happens (or I hear it from a reliable source when it comes to Chelsea).

Half the rumours are started by agents trying to engineer pay rises and improved contracts for their players or a big money move which the agent also profits from (agents are a big part of the problem in modern football).

Either that or the media make up a story quoting a "source" of some description that is never named to sell newspapers. as click bait for their site or simply to create mischief and discord.

Rich clubs are linked with so many players that when one actually happens the media likes to say "we told you so" but never mention the multitude they get wrong again.

Draxler and PSG deserve each other. What a tire fire that will be. PSG never has any qualms about signing players with questionable attitudes. Does PSG even need another versatile attacking option?

The fact that Wolfsburg announced that he will never play for the club again is an obvious sign that the guy has attitude issues. Wolfsburg would be a better team with him on the field so you'd have to think that is a VERY STRONG indictment of this.

As for Arsenal, the move made sense for the past couple seasons but he would've been completely unnecessary now.

All the transfers done till now....

Did you really have to list all those transfers? :(

Now why would Liverpool sell Illori ?

Who's that? Never heard of him.

That is the same thing they said about Owen and Rashford.

He is a Portugese mid, amazing talent .Like Sinclair.Too bad we let him go too.

You mean Ilori, not Illori. I was just about to say 'Soccerway hasn't heard of him'. It helps spelling the player's name right.

Tevez to Shanghai Shenhua
from Boca Juniors

China isn't helping its national team though....

Tevez is such a Mercenary.

@Holt Ilori joined like 2-3 seasons ago didn't he? All I know is I've seen more of his Ultimate Team card in Fifa than I had actually heard of him in real life situations over that time.

He couldn't have been playing that well. Here's an article that is indirectly about him...

Ademola Lookman moved from Charlton Athletic to Everton, that's an interesting deal!
