W.O.

Fuck Confederations Cup!

That is the safest also! Although I get what you are saying, I believe the team needs a certain balance. We cant buy the next big stars in every position because that will mean a team with no experience and we all know what that leads to... I believe the main focus should be having a criteria for young talent (which the club is rightfully doing), but we should also buy some experienced players. For instance, imagine we buy De Rossi and Ibra...it would add to the team in a lot of aspects and their age is benefical for some players that might not be 100% ready!

Brazil might disappoint, but that means we will get knocked-out at QFs! Brazil never, ever finishes in second. That means we get a pub team in the second round. Than we either lose in the QF or we reach the final (we never lost a SF)...

No, I am not wrong, playing for the sake of doing so doesnt bring you any status! Falcao can play WC 2014, but Colombia (which is currently in the qualifying zone) wont even get past first round or so. The same with Porto, because they lost 6-2agg to Arsenal...

We could be first, second and third option to buy Falcao, it doesnt matter, he is not worth 60mi euros + 200k/week! Is he a great player? Of course he is, but we can basically buy all we need with a little bit more than 60mi. It is stupid to spend it in one striker (specially when we have Lukaku if everything else fails) . If his price was around 40mi + 150k/week, I would be in favour. But that aint the case... We, as a club, dont need to do these crazy transfers anymore, we saw how Sheva and Torres turned out.

Asking for a ban should be an automatic ban...

Totally agree mate, but lets not be naive, the Pep Guardiola thing is just an excuse! Gotze and Lewandowski know they will have no competition to prevent them from winning lots of trophies if they went to Bayern and they know BVB would never be able to pay them that much... I mean, Mario Gotze got a 50% increase (from 5mi/season to 7.5mi/season) and Lewandowski will be getting much more (he is currently at 40k/week). This is the real reason!

Lewandowski will score the same amount of goals that Gomez has and then people will use it to 'show' how brilliant he is... Robert is only going to Bayern because he knows they will dominate Bundesliga and he will have no hard job scoring and making a name for himself!

One player has nothing to do with the other!

Me too, but I think Real Madrid would not sell us any first team player just to piss Mourinho off!

LAZIO!!!! :woo:

Very boring 0-0 draw, the players are way too foused in doing doin anything wrog that they are completely forgetting to actually play football!

We can realistic sign Cavani, Sanchez, De Rossi and Coentrao. IMO

Well, his contract ends after the WC 2014 and if Santos didnt accept what Barça had to offer, they would get nothing in return! Neymar is obviously worth much more than 24mi pounds, but for a player in his last year of contract, it isnt that bad...

Yes, because this a one hell of a vague sentence! For instance, Neymar is overrated and so is Lewandowski. However, that doesn't mean they are bad players, it just mean they are less than what the media makes of them...

I think you are missing the verb 'to be' there!

I agree, but kids think third party ownership means some investment groups own the player, which isn't true! Most South American players have their rights shared into many owners, but all they own is his rights. That means that the decision transfer fee decision isn't in the player's or the club's hand, but in the third party ownership's hands as well. For instance, Santos and DIS had to agree in selling Neymar; it couldn't be an unilateral decision! However, th player still has to agree with signing for the club in which the third party agreed to sell him to. Falcao (or Neymar or whoever) still has to look at the wages, club, league, infra-structure, etc, to make a decision that is still his!!! Radamel Falcao will be going to Monaco only if he wants to, there is no third party excuse. The ones who say he has no option other than obbey are clueless...

Fine, then do something now, he sits in a fucking gigantic bargain position today! He can simply say he wont give his best and will not feel comfortable playing for Monaco. Also, he can have any sort of third party agreement, but for FIFA, he is the one who needs to sign the contract and he can simply refuse to do so. I know this will generate a big internal fight, but in the worst case scenario, he will continue at Atletico Madrid (a club he loves) and he will be playing in UCL...

He is an idiot for allowing the third party ownership and even more idiotic for not asking for a big club to pay for the contract to be broken! He is also an idiot for accepting what people tell him and go there and put his own signature in a piece of paper. He will go down as an average player in 20 years time because he wont have played the 2 most important competitions in football...

Many sources saying he will undergo a medical exam today at Monaco! Rumors suggesting it is a 100mi euros deal (60mi fee and a 10mi/season 4year contract)...
