That'd be the best option if you ask me. If he turns out to be an absolute flop (which can happen, although I think he's too good for that) then we'll have VV at the club for competition - it'd be a one year buffer period to reduce the risks that come with a new goalkeeper. That being said, that...

No, but we can get Akinfeev on a free! That'd be nice.

Messi: "I really like Martino, he is a great technician," he pointed out. "He makes his teams play well and everybody respects that." Heinze: "I'm not surprised Barca think about Tata Martino. I think he would be the ideal coach for Barcelona," he said to Cope. "Martino is a coach who doesn't...

Probably because they were born in the same province (Santa Fe), but it's all bullshit, manager is the club's decision, not any player's.

Possible centre back options, besides T.Silva and D.Luiz: Agger, Vermaelen, Koscielny, Vertonghen, Mangala, Evans, Inigo Martinez [sport] I know it's just Sport, but Vertonghen would be awesome, shame we didn't go for him last year when he was actually available at a decent price... Evans would...

if Goal is banned, there is no justification for The Sun to not be. There were talks that it's a publicity stunt to increase memberships (as they haven't been sold out for 2 years now).

Exactly. It's not like he signed with Madrid. Completely understand Dortmund players turning on Gotze, but not Barca fans vs Thiago. People seem to be more upset that he joined Bayern than that he left (when most thought he was going to United I didn't see many cursing him), and while I do...

Agree about Lewa>Mandzukic, but if Mandzukic is turned into a plan B player and Lewa is his replacement, I'm sure Lewandowski wouldn't be very overjoyed in joining Bayern's bench. All speculation and "what if?"s but a lot can happen over the course of a year.

Holy crap, Muller and Kroos are only 23.. then Alaba and Gotze, both world class, are barely out of their teens.... That's scary They don't have Lewa yet, if Mandzukic ends up being second choice/Plan B to a false 9 Gotze (and still performs well) then maybe they won't need Lewa and he...

Step 1. Buy Rooney Step 2. Sell to Chelsea for 10m + David luiz Just about as realistic as the original rumour.

I'm surprised there's anyone that still rates David Silva

Rumour originated on caught offside anyway... TS is 183cm

More than that, considering Alba is our LB, Montoya should be our first choice right back.

"Thiago gone and Sergio Roberto comes through. I think it's obvious" - Zubi just now

Tito claims Cesc told him he has no intention to leave and that he (Tito) is calm, despite Cesc having offers from "big clubs".

Confirmation that we don't plan to sign a forward and Tito indicated that he trusts Roberto, although no confirmations that we're not looking for a midfielder. Hope we can sign someone classy, but it's gets harder as the transfer window progresses...

Tito just said "of course" Pep met him in NY and that they are friends and Pep was there for him when he needed him, but also said he never felt the club used the illness against Guardiola.

Got a new contract, up until the 2017/18 season, 150m euro buyout clause with option for one extra year Live press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG59_b3msdU

There seems to be this myth that claims he doesn't get game time. All competitions: (Player - Starts in La Liga last season) Valdes 31 Fabregas 30 Messi 28 Alba 27 Pique 27 Dani Alves 26 Busquets 25 Xavi 24 Iniesta 24 Pedro 23 Mascherano 21 Alexis 18 Adriano 18 Song 17 Tello 12 Puyol 12 Montoya...

We bought Cesc for 34m euros, do they honestly think we'll be taking a loss on him?
