Immobile makes a lot of sense for everyone. He has been arguably Dortmund's worst player last season and just needs to get his career back on track. Like most Italians, he hasn't taken to life in Germany so goes back home. I'm sure Dortmund are happy with this as well.
The Trapp signing is another example of how clueless we are in the transfer market and the first person we need to buy is not a player but a sporting director. We have zero strategy and, Di Maria aside, we have no idea who to buy next. Lavezzi and Cavani are still at the club, now that Cabaye is gone we only have 4 central midfielders when 3 of them are playing every game in our 433 system (a system that works) which weakens our squad depth even more. No offence to Palace fans but you'd think one of our players would laugh off the opportunity of joining a lesser London club rather than grab it with both hands in a out-of-jail manner.
Point being, we didn't need Trapp, Sirigu is a fine goalkeeper and Buffon's worthy successor and we are adressing the wrong areas of the pitch. We'll probably win the league and a couple of cups but supporting us has become so boring.
It's not like we can hide behind the FFP excuse anymore. We can spend as much as we want. We just don't know on who.

Kiko Casilla is the new signing of Real Madrid. He's not the most expected name for the position but he's an ok goalkeeper. Also I think Navas will have more chances now. And with this, De Gea is getting further for this season.

For me, Draxler matches with Juventus' standard, even more currently that they're betting in younger players. If the negotiation gets concluded it can turn good for both sides.

Barca have an Adama Traore on their books for their 'B' side and would be silly to let him go, he's going to be a monster of a player. He's obviously not the same player but I had to double check when I read this!

He's such a brilliant player . Imo the most complete midfielder currently playing . He's also a fucking nutcase which is always a bonus !
