International Tournament Banter Signing:

There's always one. Good tournament, silly fee, complete flop.

We had Diouf and Diao.

The James Rodríguez transfer is maybe the most expensive.

Who will it be this time?

I'm going for a random Portuguese lad so Ferro.

Alternatively any tips for a genuine break through talent?

Placing Diouf and Diao alongside the name of James Rodríguez

Rodriguez is still a quality player who has had some ups and downs like a lot of players do.

I can see Turkey doing reasonably well and one of their players getting snapped up.

Liverpool have been linked to him and we have form!

Top of my head Diouf, Diao, Cisse (who I liked), Baros maybe?? Origi. LFC love a tourney signing.

i thought baros was with us when he had the good tourney?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah I didnt check it clearly cos a couple have said we'd already sign Diouf and Diao but I thought it was during/after.

That was the New zidane Cheyrou summer wasn't it?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And the time when Liverpool bought Berger and United bought Poborsky. Fergie signed the wrong Czech
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I always thought Poborsky had talent. Maybe we tried to play him too far wide, if I remember rightly.

none of the czech players really delivered.

Patrick berger was cool but inconsistent.

Not sure that Cisse counts. We signed him in 2004 but he didn't play in the Euros because he got a 5 match ban after being sent off in the qualifying playoff.

Not banter signings and not sure how regularly they'll feature but I rate Doku and Gravenberch very highly, and could see them earning moves to one of the European elite in the near future.

Wow I can't believe nobody said it as a potential serious option (at least I don't think they have, only scanned briefly), SHAME ON YOU Gooners. Never mind, I'll big up our boy and suggest that our very own Bukayo Saka is a Euros youngster whom could well return home with a fat price tag on his head.

All depends on the manager and whether he gets a Michael Owen or Theo Walcott chance at Int tournament debut glory. If it's the first then I've not doubt he'll go down a Euros storm. But if it's the second then he'll just come back depressed he never even got the chance to play.
