^ i hope not coz barca is my team
if dem guys leave that would be the downfall of barca
i wouldn't worry, the president doesn't want them to
if they sell both of them for huge money, who do they buy to replace? kaka, not for sale, henry? just one player
david pizarro > roma
chivu > inter
granqvist > wigan
robert kovac >dortmund
derlei > sporting lisbon
metzelder > real madrid (these motherfuckers will ruin him)
iaquinta > juventus
just a mild update on transfers
well, maybe, and maybe he'll end up winning a title anyway...
tiago to juve for about 15 mil
Lyon is torn apart... from outside, and inside too.
Not true at all. That was assumed by everyone when Roma was negotiating with Inter about Pizarro. Chivu was never brought up during those meetings. Roma even released a statement on their official website saying there is no deal between Roma and Inter for Chivu. Fact is also that he doesn't want to play for them. It's either Barcelona or he'll stay at Roma.
im surprised not a lot of teams are going after riquelme.
A lot of Evertonians have been talking about an attempt to sign Riquelme on loan, though I highly doubt this happening seeing as he said he didn't wanna join Man Utd last summer as it'd mean moving his family to England when they're settledi n Spain. I'm glad he didn't join, he's not the kind of player that covers a great deal of ground. He'd be best off returning to Villarreal and sorting his attitude out, they'll have a sweet team next season.
true, villareal at the beginning of this season looked very good but they were just unlucky with all the injuries. i think its best for riquelme to return to villareal.
riquelme is a big time player he needs to go to a big time club where ever he goes. he is bigger than villareal that is for sure.
roma signed juan from leverkusen. not a bad buy. might be to replace chivu though.
^ roma is starting to step up
they should pick up riquelme
lol
argentina squad for copa america is ridiculous
they are the best team on paper

fuck me, look at that squad ... some how the argies will fuck it up in the copa, spewin there is no coverage of the copa here other than the final
damn didnt know they had that good of a squad.its a better squad then brazils.
Barca officials are seen in Roma today for talks about Chivu.
riquelme is too difficult to handle. really.
and ribéry is just so influenced by his agents, even if he recently changed. that's what got him at Galatasaray with this funky contract. he's a money machine for his agents.
riquelme can stay at boca i read. but yeah he is difficult to handle. maradona also said that napoli should get him.
What the... Lincoln going from Schalke to Galatasaray. Thought they were in financial trouble or something as someone said here on this board.
fenerbahce have the finance problems ^^
All Turkish sides have financial troubles, in all fairness, the money isn't in that league so it makes sense for them to all have torubles of sorts.
Zé Roberto has re-joined Bayern as well, a good signing for them.
well, Barça's been in financial troubles since the beginning of times, and they still consider buying top-class players... nothing surprises me anymore on this side...
Chelsea is a financial disaster, but Roman keeps pouring money year after year... though it seems to be going slower this year...
by the way, Marseille's buying Osasuna's Valdo, who i've been following for a few years now. he's a good player, trained at Real Madrid, was supposed to be Figo's replacement, but Perez's politics earned him to be rejected.
nobody mentionned Juan going to Roma ?
and Giuly's free by the way. Barça need some room on the bench.
FrenchShin actually since Laporta became president Barca's financials are okay again. Nunez and Gaspart all fucked things up. Not to mention that Real also are/were in financial troubles but you forget that right ;). Sometimes I wonder how they got money to land all those galacticos.
the financial results for Real just dropped today. it's positive for 40 million euros before taxes, and the expected budget for next year is up to 400 million euros. (they'll have Bwin as a shirt sponsor by the way... just like AC Milan).
Perez got the balance right, by selling the old training centre for more than 1 billion euros, and i agree it was a very generous price but hey, which football club isn't financially overrated ?
obviously, standards of financial health are not the same in football and in other business areas.
yeah they sold the training ground to the city of madrid and bought it back from them for 1euro. I know about the sponsor they pay 20million a year if I'm not mistaken. Think the budget you posted is also expected for Barca or atleast somewhere in that region.
Be honest what you think of Madrid canning Capello after one season and getting a new coach again? Finally a coach gets them right back on track delivered them a trophy and now he can go away again. To me I say let Capello sit out his contract before making new changes.
Haha, Tom Cruise wants to buy Los Angeles Galaxy. I heard it all now.
well, i don't understand shit when it comes to management seen from outside. if you observe, Deschamps won the Serie B and left, Papin got Strasbourg from L2 to L1 and left, Houillier won L1 and left, Capello will probably leave, though it's not official... pfff... what kind of world is that.
and i mentionned these coaches because they're not leaving for better offers. they just left without any offer ! anyway, you can't have a better offer than Capello's. he's paid 4 or 5 million euros a year, has a 16 million sacking-clause...
Schuster wouldn't be bad actually. he knows Madrid, knows Spain, thinks more about attacking than Capello does... but Capello is just like the Trap a few years back : a fucking winning machine.
so, i don't know... he could stay, he could leave. he may have troubles with Calderon and Mijatovic.... i think Capello would like to be a full manager in charge of the recruitment, but Mijatovic got that role. he's considering too many players though...
Tom Cruise is a weirdo, put money on Victoria Beckham becomming a Scientologist.
Real Madrid are Real Madrid, only a club like that would sack their coach after winning a domestic title in their first season. At least Calderon has taken the hint with Ronaldo, and is sticking to attempting to unsettle Kaka and Robben. I don't like how these club presidents unsettle players by saying they'll buy them in their manifesto for election, UEFA should do more to stop that crap.
I think they'd be right to keep Capello in charge though, ther earen't many managers out there who're better and are willing to take that job. I think if he satayed he'd want to sell Raul, which may cost him his job either way.
Haha yeah shame tho. Only long-term managers that stays with their team are Wenger and Ferguson all tho the first can also leave with the departure of David Dein. Tom Cruise weirdo indeed haha.
Mijatovic is also on the seat to be sacked from his position. Shame tho Capello got a nice clause, fire me pay me my goddamn 16million. Gotta love that all those clauses. And Calderon should stop with the we will try to get Kaka etc. Also heard about the Kaka picture with the newspaper he is holding? Nice photoshopped by AS.
Il Romanista’ have since revealed inside news from the meeting, claiming that an agreement has been reached which will see Barcelona offer Ludovic Giuly, Juliano Belletti and 12 million euros in exchange for Chivu.
