I doubt the buyback is 29m, no club in their right mind (and while we might not be, we're not THAT stupid) will place a buyout clause lower than the original transfer fee. Maybe it's there, but it wouldn't be clear cut.

So, just wondering if we have any left? I consider myself an optimistic fan but my optimism is dying out...

Sign the second one, worry about the first one later :lol:

That would make me a happy man.

Or get Akinfeev for free...

Thiago Silva and? What position do you think we will strengthen apart from CB? Put it this way: he's their best winger at the moment and he's not even a natural winger. His finishing isn't great but his general play is very good for a youngster. I definitely think you're under-rating him.

Haha I thought it was obvious that there's a good reason he was asked that (relatively weird) question, never thought about it like that

I make of that that Pep wasn't coincidentally asked about it, he asked his friend to ask him so he'll have an excuse to vent at the board.

He's 167cm so he fits the bill perfectly.

He definitely has a hand in what Mundo post, not as sure about Sport, just like Perez and co with Marca, but to a lesser extent.

There are 2 ways this could be seen: 1. (Most optimistic) Tito thinks Mazinho is just doing this to get a better contract and is playing hardball to not have to give in to the demands. This doesn't seem as likely now that Guardiola confirmed interest. Maybe just trying to hold it out until...

Maybe we have a misunderstanding of 'world beater' because for me it's someone who is world class, walking into the vast majority of teams in the world. Me saying he's no world beater is intentionally understating it. Cesc I seem to rate higher than just about anyone on this forum, I think he...

Doubt it

I maintain that Song is our Keita-type midfielder, good both on and off the ball but no world beater, willing to be a rotation player and already at the club.

I don't think Cesc is that much better at ACM than at CM, he does both pretty well. Anyway, Mata is just another Sport rumour. Why do we have to buy anyone at all? Song can play CM and lets not forget Sergi Roberto.... While I won't trust him in big games, in home games vs smaller teams in La...

I remember him in the 2-2 friendly against us and I was very impressed. I went to look him up expecting him to be mid-early-thirties because of him composure etc. I was very impressed with him (although it was only one game). His height is definitely a nice bonus.

Just wanted to say, everything I said about Pep on this forum recently I take back, I severely misunderstood his quotes.

Abrahmovic for president :troll:

Not enough mid fielders. Alaba used to be a CM, so it's fine.
