Franck Ribery

[Beast]

I'd be happy with Silva but it's looking like a fucking awful and mistake-plagued transfer window for us, thus far. And surprisingly he's been linked with no-one but Pool, who now don't want him anymore.

Valencia want to keep Silva that's why

Supposedly he rejected a new contract from Bayern.

It would be stupid if he didn't.

Well, now we have Frank the tank wanting to tag along with Benzinho and other stars at Real. I've understood that Bayern Munich are reluctant to let him leave cheap, but I guess Real can always loan more? :-D

edit: Can't decide whether it should be "tank" or "skank". The latter would definitely fit him.

At the same time Elmundo Deportivo claims that Pep still sees Henry as first choice for left forward position. + we have Iniesta who can cover the spot. And with us increasingly being interested in Cesc and Mascherano... Who knows, we might start a new season without a new winger.

A bit of off topic, but what the hell...

Some reports errupting from the Camp Nou (source http://www.fcbarcelonanews.com/fc-barcelona-keeping-hleb/) state that we are to keep Hleb at bay. The question now is, assuming he will stay: can he cover as an LW, and if not - will he adapt to that position?

You want Hleb to play left back? I don't think that would be good for us. I think you mean left wing? Yes, Hleb can cover the left wing - but not in Barca. We should sell his ass ASAP!

And Ribery? He wants to play for Real... OMFG, how is it possible? I hope he breaks his legs that frog eater (sorry french people, I actually really like you food etc).

Oops. I meant LW of course. Kinda had my thoughts on other things while writing that one

Ha ha, awesome.

I agree with everyone who has said Ribery is not worth anything above 40-45ME. It is obviously a valuation by the heads at Bayern, but it's grossly unrealistic and obvious that they do not want to sell. The club would do well to focus on the spaniards we have in mind.

Villa, Mata, Fabregas - Job Done.

 

[sammy]

Couldn't agree with you more. Get more spaniard, villa, mata, cesc, and silva too.

 

[gazza]

Sky news this morning bookies have slashed the odds on Ribery going to Liverpool !

 

[Zqa-]

Why the hell would he want to go to Liverpool?

And seriously, if Real doesn't have the money to buy him, how should Liverpool? Fools didn't even have the cash to pay Barry.

 

[Fourteen]

By the sounds of it, bookies are playing it safe due to the suprise they got when Owen ended up a Man Utd - They had to pay out alot.

Apparently the same group of people kept going in each time SkyBet slashed their odds after initially thinking it was a little strange to see people going for the 66-1 odds. I doubt it will happen, especially since Ribery has the chance to go to one of Spains big two and I really don't see Liverpool as having the money for him.
