Dunno why bigger clubs aren't going for him if they know he's for sale. Probably what Shaqiri is waiting for and why he's rejecting the other two offers.

- Start date

I did not like Shaqiri at Inter so far. But I rather they ditch Hernanes and Guarin first then think about the likes of Shaqiri to get rid of if they're still in need of sell. Inter can get +20m by selling Hernanes and Guarin, so in comparison 17m for Shariqi who is younger than both of them doesn't seem quite a fascinating idea.

There were rumors today of Guarin being involved in a swap deal for Mertens.

Funnily enough he can do well in England with that body. There is plenty of dudes like him who are reasonably successful in mid-tier teams there. Personally reminds me of Lee Tomlin, the English Messi 
But what a career path. Couldn't work out weirder for him. He can do a Remy later though so no worries.

The only match I saw got to last season was Birmingham v Boro, and Lee Tomlin was a class above. Bit like the time I saw Wes Hoolahan for Norwich, unbelievable 
Agree, going to inter was a terrible idea.

He possesses better acceleration than pace, however, which might make his impact less explosive than predicted despite the space afforded in the Premiership...I actually think the Primera Liga would make him a better player and force him to not just rely on that initial burst but read & react to the higher technical level in Spain
Still, Stoke can be a smart choice since the team will work for him as well reinforcing the need for the Suisse player to play harder than he has up until now...I think Shaqiri has failed to live up to his potential thus far and guilty of some complacency in his overall game...All too often relying on occasional moments that are gifted to him rather than taking his game to the next level and creating those moments as has been expected/hoped for
We'll see, I'm hopeful

He wasnt even that bad at Inter, everytime I watched them, Shaqiri was the most dangerous Player there. As for Stoke , Money talks

Excuse me. The guy is an Inter reject.
And you might argue that Inter these days is not even better than Stoke.
So Stoke signed a benchwarmer of an inferior team to use him in their own starter squad and they paid 17m for that.
Thats like Sevilla paying 15m for a Malaga reject.
How is that good business? Affelay, Bojan, Shaqiri, Glen Johnson, Van Ginkel, Joselu.
Those are all names of players who all failed to develope, this is why Stoke was able to sign them in the first place.

"The guy is an Inter reject" lol because that says so much about how good a player is, especially after spending 4 months at the club... you should go back to Football Manager
