2015/2016 Barclays Premier League Thread

no arguments there. I really like what they've been doing, that's going to be an exciting young team. If they sell Mkhitaryan too, they might need another player who can have an immediate impact though if they want to stay in the top 3 ... Leverkusen has been killing this transfer window so far and Gladbach has done well too.

But, but, but the German league is a joke!

The German league itself is not a joke. The fact most of the teams in that league are essentially farm teams for Bayern is a bit of a joke though.

yes it is. Dortmund is doing a dramatic overhaul including selling 2 or 3 of their 4 top players and is still pretty much guaranteed a CL spot.

but back to PL stuff: West Ham sign Algerian winger Sofiane Feghouli from Valencia on a free transfer. Excellent piece of business.

CAM? they have Kagawa for that role?

[d_phaneuf]

Dortmund are doing what Porto/Benfica do

CL spot is very likely unless you mess up, so buy young talent and with your good coaching talent build it up to sell to richer clubs

still they could do with another creative player after losing Gündogan and possibly Mkhitaryan. They have been interested in Kovacic for example.
