He bout to slap someone uplol LVG leaving Swansea
Why did Juve let Coman go out on loan Bayern? Figure they could use him
Juve doesn't really utilize wingers so this can really work out for him. Even with Ribery out, would like to see him take Coman under his wing

50m for a 19 year old?
Not even that mad if true cause Marital is the next Henry according to many in France,infinitely better buy than Charlie Austin as I've seen rumored today..
Bundesliga has the most goals per match in the world.I mean are the title races elsewhere usually any closer? . I enjoy the fact that almost any team can win on any given matchday,even if that's at times to the detriment of my squad *shrugs*
Doesn't Martial play the same position as Memphis? I really like him as a player but that seems weird

CHICAGO (Aug. 30, 2015) – U.S. Men’s National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann has named the initial 23-player roster that will gather for friendlies against Peru and Brazil in the final preparation games before the decisive Oct. 10 playoff against Mexico at the Rose Bowl for a spot in the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup.
The U.S. faces Peru, which finished third in Copa America this summer, on Sept. 4 at RFK Stadium in Washington D.C. (7 p.m. ET; FOX Sports 1, FOX Sports Go, UniMas, Univision Deportes Network) and four days later meets five-time World Cup champion Brazil at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts (8 p.m. ET; ESPN Networks, UniMas, Univision Deportes Network).
“The bigger picture is to get some answers for how we put things together for the Mexico game a month from now,” said Klinsmann. “Obviously we want to continue to have a good flow of guys from the Gold Cup, but also to bring back guys who are in position to compete for a spot on the roster for Oct. 10. Our message to these guys is simple: prove a point that you want to be at the Rose Bowl.”
A total of 15 players from the group were a part of the team that represented the United States this summer at the CONCACAF Gold Cup, and 12 join from the 2014 FIFA World Cup squad. The roster is loaded with experience, boasting an average of nearly 27 caps. Three players have 50 or more appearances, while only five have 10 caps or less.
Matt Besler and Jermaine Jones could see action for the first time since February and fellow 2014 World Cup teammates Geoff Cameron and Tim Howard are back in the mix for the first time in 2015. Meantime, SV Sandhausen forward Andrew Wooten will make his first appearance in an MNT camp, the 25-year-old having scored five goals in the first five games this season.
Toronto FC midfielder Michael Bradley and Seattle Sounders FC forward Clint Dempsey will be added to the U.S. roster for the match against Brazil, and goalkeeper William Yarbrough will return to his club and be replaced by Chicago Fire ‘keeper Sean Johnson. Any additional changes will be determined following the game against Peru.
U.S. Roster by Position:
GOALKEEPERS (3): Brad Guzan (Aston Villa), Tim Howard (Everton), William Yarbrough (Club Leon)
DEFENDERS (: Ventura Alvarado (Club America), Matt Besler (Sporting Kansas City), John Brooks (Hertha Berlin), Geoff Cameron (Stoke City), Greg Garza (Atlas), Omar Gonzalez (LA Galaxy), Michael Orozco (Club Tijuana), Tim Ream (Fulham)
MIDFIELDERS (7): Alejandro Bedoya (Nantes), Joe Corona (Veracruz), Mix Diskerud (New York City FC), Jermaine Jones (New England Revolution), Alfredo Morales (FC Ingolstadt), Danny Williams (Reading), DeAndre Yedlin (Tottenham Hotspur)
FORWARDS (5): Jozy Altidore (Toronto FC), Aron Johannsson (Werder Bremen), Bobby Wood (Union Berlin), Andrew Wooten (SV Sandhausen), Gyasi Zardes (LA Galaxy)
Yea with the deadline fast approaching, teams almost have to overpay to get their targets
Doesn't Martial play the same position as Memphis? I really like him as a player but that seems weird
He's a striker as well if I'm not mistaken.

Roy Hodgson has named his squad for the Euro 2016 qualifiers against San Marino and Switzerland.
Among the 22-man group is Swansea City midfielder Jonjo Shelvey, who will be hoping to add to his solo cap, which was earned in October 2013 against San Marino.
There is also a return for Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw, who last featured for the senior side in their 3-1 victory against Scotland in November 2014.
San Marino v England
UEFA EURO 2016 Qualifier
5pm, Saturday 5 September 2015
San Marino Stadium, Serravalle
Live on ITV
And following his impressive performances for Stoke City this season, former Under-21s captain Jack Butland is back with Hodgson's group.
The only uncapped member of the group is Burnley goalkeeper Tom Heaton – although he was part of the squad for the June fixtures against Republic of Ireland and Slovenia.
The Three Lions take on San Marino in Serravalle on Saturday 5 September, before returning home to Wembley Stadium to take on Switzerland three days later.
As well as the carrot of maintaining their 100 per cent record – following six victories from six – Hodgson's side could seal qualification for France during in the forthcoming double-header.
Jonjo Shelvey was last in action for England in October 2013
Manchester United are best represented, with four players in the squad that will report to St. George's Park on Tuesday.
Manchester City, Arsenal and Everton each have three – while Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have two representatives within the group.
Stoke City, Burnley, Leicester City, Chelsea and Swansea City all have one player in the squad to make up Hodgson's 22.
And captain Wayne Rooney will be viewing the fixtures as the ideal opportunity to become the first Englishman to score a half-century of goals for his country.
Currently on 48, and just one behind Sir Bobby Charlton's all-time record, the Manchester United forward will go into the games knowing he is on the brink of history.

With 48 strikes Wayne Rooney is just one goal short of Sir Bobby Charlton's all-time record
Commenting on the announcement, England manager Roy Hodgson said: "On this occasion we are obviously missing some players from the June matches. However this is compensated by the fact we have players who weren't available over the summer.
"Jonjo Shelvey gets another chance as he has been very impressive since the start of the season whilst Ryan Mason has been unlucky with us - he picked up an injury the last time he was in the England squad.
"This latest squad shows we are working a good number of players with a claim to be England regulars and secure a place in Euro 2016.
"Before that there are two matches we must focus on. The players must keep going, play well and look to win every match. I don't want any let up and we want to win both these games."
The squad
Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), Jack Butland (Stoke City), Tom Heaton (Burnley).
Defenders: Nathaniel Clyne (Liverpool), Luke Shaw (Manchester United), Kieran Gibbs (Arsenal), Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), John Stones (Everton), Phil Jagielka (Everton).
Midfielders: Michael Carrick (Manchester United), James Milner (Liverpool), Ross Barkley (Everton), Jonjo Shelvey (Swansea City), Ryan Mason (Tottenham Hotspur), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal), Fabian Delph (Manchester City).
Forwards: Raheem Sterling (Manchester City), Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur), Jamie Vardy (Leicester City), Theo Walcott (Arsenal).
