there you go

something i had off a different forum

 

[RickSanchez]

Seems like West Brom let go of a few of their handy players.
How is Adler these days, I know he used to be quite highly rated, surprised he went on a free. Surprised at Barrios as well, thought he could still be playing for some good sides but I guess money was too tempting.

 

[Thistle]

What is Barrios doing going to China and on a 4 year contract.??? Gun player who should be in the prime of his career.

200k a week + he is living in a free luixury apartment handed to him by the club owner with his own personal driver + maid.

Its pretty much the same type of deal Gyan is on. You dont turn that down ever really.

 

[moomba]

Chinese League is going to end up with some decent players in it.

 

[Coledinho]

Chinese League is going to end up with some decent players in it.

They will keep going with the older household names though. Rumor is that like Anzhi a Chinese club agreed a fee for Hulk but like Anzhi he refused to move. Just a example of how they cant get the world class names yet

 

[Magma]

guangzhou also have lippi as their manager. going places.

 

[Coledinho]

Eden Hazard is going to have a massive press conference in the next week or so to announce which club he wants to join with it being broadcast on French TV. His agent wants 8 mill euro bonus + Hazard wants 4 mill extra ontop of the sign on fee he will already get

What a bellend

Well he's off to City then, didn't he confirm that we will be in Manchester next season? MU won't pony that sort of $ up.

 

[Magma]

at the moment, neither will we. read reports that we're less than impressed with his opinion of himself, his demands and overall dickness.

 

[moomba]

Its between Chelsea and a Manchester club. Press think United but they think every big name will end up at United.

Personally I think he wants to come to City and hes using Chelsea to squeeze as much as he can out of us.

 

[Tomnat Tigers]

M'Villa has been linked with arsenal, read on another forum that when he was taking a throw in last night he said i will be taking these for Mr.wenger, though I'm not sure if that really happened or not.

Kawaga looks to be off to united on the cheap.

Vertoghen is close to a tottenham move though apparently ajax want more then what tottenham are offering. Loic remy also being linked with a move.

Hazard will end up at either united, city or chelsea.

RVP hasn't signed a contract and man city seem to be the only team that is interested with barca saying they have no need for him, only other team he could join would be madrid but mourinho seems pretty happy with benzema and higuain.

Wouldn't be surprised to see falcoa at chelsea.

One of bale or modric will leave tottenham if not both now that they will be playing europa league.

Also man city fans what are you's going to do with john gudetti(spelling). Is their a spot for him yet or will he go on loan again.

 

[moomba]

Will Vertonghen still be willing to go to Spurs?

I could see Guidetti going out on loan again.

 

[Magma]

guidetti looks likely to go to swansea on loan

anzhi have bid 45 mil for rvp or something like that. will show if he's purely motivated by a big final contract or winning. i dont want him at city though. not worth the money when he wouldnt be the best striker anyway

Asian women mate.

 

[Latro]

Dortmund want 20 million Euros for Kawaga.

 

[Redalert]

Anyone know the situation going on with Neymar? This kid was meant to be the next Pele but he seems to have disappeared recently...

He's still a gun, Santos are just doing everything they can to keep him before the 2014 World Cup.

Source? Figures I've seen before were half that

I think Santos have him tied down til after the 2014 WC. Still takes the piss

 

[Latro]

I got that from German press. Neuer went for the same price last year with only 1 year left.

 

[Cooldude]

Would be shattered if Kagawa goes to the Mancs, used to love him

 

[Latro]

Drogba is leaving according to Philippe Auclair.

Disappeared?

27 goals in 25 games in 2012

 

[apollo_creed]

Drogba is leaving according to Philippe Auclair.

think he's either settled on a big payday in china or going to barca.
he has had a successful and wonderful career at chelsea. he'll be held in the highest regard and be considered one of the club greats. the right time to leave. the timing is perfect.

will miss him in the pl but thanks for eight great years.

didier.
