  1. More money is everything to players these days. Especially when you do not have to pay tax.
  2. Tbh, Benitez was not sacked. He was interim manager till the end of the season and just saw out his contract.
  3. Fair enough but whether they will give him the wages he is after is another thing which may be difficult for them bringing in a high caliber striker so that will eb the difficult thing.Maybe Jackson Martinez is a good bet for them.
  4. http://www.goal.com/en/news/90/france/2013/05/28/4010688/monaco-interested-in-hulk-claims-agent?source=breakingnews&ICID=HP_BN_2 Now, Hulk of rumours are to be true. Seems that Monaco wants to buy the whole past and current Porto team. Rodriguez, Moutinho, Falcao, Carvalho, Hulk?, Martinez maybe?
  5. I also find it hard when people say Cech is much better, simply because Courtois has just been all positives since his move to Atletico and you can't really pick out any flaws from his game to say he is inferior to Cech.
  6. Well hopefully Cech is not derailed by injuries however unlike VdS, Cech has had more injuries and maybe this could be a problem in the future, hopefully not and with Courtois he could be the no.1 keeper here for maybe up to two decades. Future sorted
  7. Why rotate him when he can have a full season out on loan. We are just taking valuable game time from him. No point having both of them rotate because say Courtois has one excellent game for us then gets rotated next game, not really good for confidence and it brings uncertainty for the keepers.
  8. The talent they bring through is amazing. Developed Moses, Zaha and Williams to the first team and all have brilliant careers ahead of them. Hiram Boateng is another one of their talents who will soon come through as well.
  9. You said it like you are 100% certain. Think really, he has scored around 35 goals this season and you don't think they will have trouble replacing him. Logic please
  10. Even if he does have that, we can never say he has more consistency than anyone because he has not played a game in the hardest game in the world. Big difference. If Mikel was playing for Watford right now, he would look much better as well.
  11. Funny how most people think he had a bad season yet Garth Crooks put him in his team of the season, Team Brana! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22574993
  12. Zola done well to reach with Watford here but tactically he needs to be better. Some of the football Watford played was very enjoyable to watch but did not have a back up plan. Palace set up well for them and even near the end, he stuck with same formation, he should change formation or something but that is a weakness he needs to improve on IMO. Interesting for Chalobah next season...
  13. No, he is going Bayern 100% looks like.
  14. I believe it is true. Sky Sports are reporting he is going to have a medical there. Think you might be eating your words.
  15. Most players in his position, normally move to Ajax and if I was him I would do the same with the expected departures of Eriksen and SDJ. We have a history of signing players like this and then not giving them chances so surprised he would come here if he has choices. If he is set on coming here, good on him but I think he would be best served going to a team such as Ajax.
  16. Even they are not stupid to get him back, no matter how good he was in his spell there. They are looking at Suarez, Negredo, Yilmaz, Cavani and Martinez as possible replacements.
  17. Even I was critical of Oscar earlier in the season but coming towards the end of the season I definitely think he improved. He looked good on the wings even though it is not his main position, his body balance also improved and added more goals. Hope he kicks on next season.
  18. http://www.dutchfootball-league.com/marco-van-ginkel-rising-dutch-midfield-star/ For those who want to know more about his style of play. Already got a full international cap as well.
  19. So City have beaten us 5 times this season out of a possible six and we only managed a draw in the other one where we were outplayed at our own ground in Benitez first game in charge. Bloody annoying!
  20. One game. Service to him was not so brilliant. Messi disappeared against us. Does that mean he is awful? I swear some of your comments make me think you are deluded. Have you seen how much goals he has scored this season? You called him overrated because he "disappeared" in one final yet he has been a shining player for Dortmund in most big games. Christsake!
  21. Mata over Silva any day. Just a genius. Some of his passes #whew#
  22. That is just wonderful! Wish he could do that on a better occasion though. Not that much people over the world will see that
