Apparently we're back in for him alongside City, Barca and Madrid. Madrid apparently had a 20 million euros bid rejected the other day so we'll have to dig deep. He's a great talent with clear potential. Roma did some really good business to get him for 3 million. Only one season on major clubs from across the globe are willing to pay almost 7 times that amount!

He rejected City last year who were apparently offering in excess of £30 million and around £130k a/w in wages. De Rossi peaked 2 years ago, but he's still quality and the Roma team generally weren't great last year. This would be the cheapest you could get De Rossi for a while now, so economically speaking I guess it's an ideal time. He would be a big loss to them, and Serie A for that matter, but their loss would be our gain. Midfielders like him, especially Italian midfielders, can go on for a few years. I would imagine Mourinho and the Chelsea team as a whole would love having a gladiator like De Rossi in the team. The more I think about it the more I like the idea. If he does decide to leave I'd welcome him with open hands.

These are the supposed quotes from Perez (weren't in the SSN article for some reason):

Madrid have scored over 100 goals in La Liga for the last three consecutive campaigns. Mourinho is the first coach to oversee such an achievement.

Welcome back

haha some jokes just write themselves:

You saw right through his Genjutsu. On Jose, we all know it's happening, just need to be patient and wait for the official confirmation.

He's going to have so much fun in la liga! As much as some people are happy I'd never say no to Neymar.

Neymars instagram and twitter: http://instagram.com/p/ZwXvcIxtnX/# Google translated: I'm Here reunited with friends and family and they have helped me to write a few things here ... It's not going to hold out until Monday ... My family and friends already know my decision. Monday I sign a contract with Barcelona. I want to thank the fans of Santos by these incredible nine years. My feeling for the club and the fans will never change. It is eternal! Only a club like Santos FC could give me everything I have lived on and off the field. I thank the wonderful fans who supported me fish even in the most difficult moments. Titles, goals, dribbling, celebrations and songs that fans created for me will be forever in my heart ... I made sure to play the match tomorrow in Brasilia. I want to have the opportunity to once again take the field with the "mantle" and hear the crowd scream my name ... as the hymn says, "it is an honor that not everyone can have ..." It is a different time for me, sad (farewell) and cheerful (new challenge). May God bless me in my choices ... And I'm always in Santos! # Toiss Nothing new but words from the man himself confirming it.

These three always pop into my mind when this question is raised (Mind you, there are also others). Hard to choose one. I particularly enjoy watching intelligent players, so Zizou possibly edges it for me .

Was just gonna post that , it insinuates we'd go after Varane, I'd love to have him here! But no way do I want David Luiz gone. Nor do I think he'll leave, just more DM rubbish probably.

Looks like another way they're trying to avoid 'FFP', no doubt there will be massive Arab sponsorships all over them, and being owned by Citeh, they'll also gain from it in both revenue and increased fanbase...

TBH a lot Madrid fans seem upset, but some agree it's the right time to move on. Either way don't the Spanish media fool you, most Madrid fans will always have a place for him in there heart.

Holy shit, me and bro are studying for a med and law degree, wish we could study that much, too many distractions! At OP, I agree with what most people have said Biology's probably to must useful. But you don't have to do it if you don't want to, some of the syllabus was a drag from what I remember, stuff like Ecology (Although the syllabus is different for different countries, its likely to be similar content-wise)...Good luck.

Lukaku's hat-trick stopped Man Utd from equalling the 29 wins record set by Jose's Chelsea

Hats off to Juan. He tops of his already fantastic season with 20 goals in all competitions, the first time he's done that. Not to mention his huge tally of 30+ assists, :blue scalf:

Lol Hazards a funny guy. Thorgan also plays for Zulte Waregem, huge game today!

Just remarkable. Adidas's promotions and kit designs are the best in the business right now.

Ribery has been immense today.
