Sky Sports Italia are reporting that AC Milan have held talks with ASM's agents and he'd be amenable to making the move. The sticking point is supposedly us asking for at least 30m Euro. Italian football media seems even dodgier than UK media so I'm not sure how seriously it should be taken. 

[Andrew 2721]

Considering the precedent set the last couple of seasons, i cant see us asking for so little for him. Proven PL winger who is only 25. Considering the prices paid or quoted for anthony and diaby, 30 million is peanuts

[Dr Gloom 11433]

They know what they can do with their 30m euros 

[Polarboy 1175]

It actually says over 30m as opposed to at least. I never know what that means though. If you want over 30m is that 40, 50, 60 a 100.

€69m, and not a French Fancy less. 

[toonotl 998]

The going price for a player like ASM at the moment is at least double 30m. I really hope that this is paper talk because ASM has been improving lately and is not far from deserving a run in the starting lineup (if he isn't there already). If we buy Gordon and sell ASM then arguably we've made a sideways step instead of progressing the quality of the squad.

ASM’s problem is that he’s a dwa, and Eddie wants a team of giants.

agreed. We need depth. ASM has been unlucky with injuries this season but has impressed me lately as he is trying to adapt his game. He’s barely played with Isak and I thought the way they linked up the other day was promising. If we do get rid for silly money it should be reinvested on Maddison and Gordon or another winger.

Burnley. WTF?

Make a nice ragu with it?

[MrBass 537]

If ASM goes then we need a quality replacement, who isn't cup tied (so from overseas?) and who can drop into the team straight away otherwise we could be fucking ourselves for the Cup Final (should we get there).

 

I know ASM probably wouldn't start and isn't "the one" who would guarantee us winning, but he's an incredible asset to pull off the bench to scare the shit out of defences. Plus, as others have said, his link up play with Isak and Bruno last game was very nice to watch.

[wykikitoon 8392]

No training for Gordon again apparently 

[trophyshy 3765]

Lazy

[Tom 11316]

I bet when he comes back after 5 days off one of the older coaches will be like “Gordon’s alive!!” And not one of the players will get the reference

it would be madness to let our number 11, left wing, attacking midfielder, high pressing, running the channels, sitting deeper, mercurial frenchman go.

i think.

He's definitely French, if that helps  

[Meenzer 10065]

Although what if France is actually just Low England...?

Didn't all of of this happen when he was mooted to be going to Chelsea also?
