Happy with that. Still far too good to be quitting the Spanish league just yet. Having said that, would love to see him at NYCFC at some point.
This is ridiculous, he is obviously stalling because he fancies another club, why would City persist with him?
I always get irritated when people mention Real/Barca's model of buying players. They operate on a different level of budget compared to most clubs with them able to negotiate their own tv deals and all. And buying players just for the sake of buying a marquee signing even though they have world class players already just doesn't happen anywhere else as often.
We bought Young to be a squad/backup winger to Nani and Valencia at the time which was perfectly fine since the latter two were two of the best wingers around and Young was good for Villa. Of course things change since then. Both suffered injuries and never quite able to play as well as before consistently.
Well duh. but:
Only a €1.5m + Frederik Sorensen loan move with the option to buy for €11m, they're not spending Vidal money.
Forget about Hummels and Reus it´s there physio we should be bidding for.
Vidal (purely because Juvrntus have not been emphatic about him and the player himself seemingly open to leaving... whilst the likes of Madrid and co seem busy with other targets), de Jong, Vermaelen or de Vrij.
Dortmund following Chelsea's lead I see, the problem here is I foresee more fake groin injuries during games.
Gotcha, so we should only target one top player, a crock and two average ones.
Betting companies? How does that work?
I think the Premier League funding it is probably the best option. Or at least a viable one, anyway! There is now a thread for it in the football forum.
To get their license to do business in Norway (sports betting), they have to give some percentage of their gross income to a government fund that gives the money to sport at grass root level.
I thought Will Keane's chances of making it here were done, I'm surprised at this! Not going to pretend I've seen a lot of him but his scoring record isn't great and I know he's struggled with injuries. I assumed he'd be shipped out and Wilson would be given a chance.
If you think De Vrij is avrage, then you are very much mistaken.
He strikes me as one who'll be lucky to get 7 or 8 goals in the PL.
Rac1 reporting Bojan Krikic is off to Stoke City. Finally, will sign a four-year deal after being loaned every season since 2011.
Blackburn bought him for a lot, doubt they'd let him go cheapHow much would Jordan Rhodes cost? Couldn't be that much more than this fella, could it? I reckon he'd easily score 14 or 15 league goals in the PL.
Rhodes signed a new 5 year deal with Blackburn a couple of weeks ago so I guess he's going nowhere this summer.
meanwhile:
Could be something to it as this chick's got over 600k followers. Here's the actual tweet btw:

She's apparently friends with a few of the Colombian players
