Ha. They did it again.
![]() Three titles in two weeks. |
Monaco look like they're spending some serious money. £60m for João Moutinho and James Rodríguez from Porto and now £50m on Falcao. Although I think Falcao will only be a temporary signing, before possibly moving to Real due to some arrangement they have with Atletico not to buy each others players direct. Real may be helping to finance Monaco's signing, using them as a kind of halfway house, with an agreement that he'll move on to Real in a season or so.
Either way, it seems to put a lid on any ideas about Falcao being Prem-bound. |
Two words: Jorge Mendes.

Well done to Palace in the play off final. Great game. Nerve wracking even for a neutral. God knows what SonicBebs was going through.

Benítez confirmed at Napoli.
|
and heynckes really wants to go to madrid... jupp...
|
Also hearing rumours of Suarez to Real for £40m, although Liverpool insist he's not for sale.
Pepe and Suarez in the same team. It'd be like Slapshot! |

if heynckes, suarez, and pepe end up in the same team i might become a fan. oh wait, this face negates all that: ![]() pass! |
That's if Ronaldo's even there next season. This transfer window's turning into a bit of an el classico.

Mourinho and Ronaldo don't really get along.
Heynckes is unlikely, unless they fail Ancellotti. They've been in talks since January when Mourinho decided to leave. Zidane has been assigned a management role, so it looks like that's how it's shaping up. Quote:

PSG are still insisting they won't release Ancelotti but he does seem determined to go, and no team wants a manager who doesn't want to be there, and I don't see the appeal of appointing a 67 year old (Heynckes) for what could be something of a rebuild job, especially if Ronaldo does go.
I'm taking a lot of these rumours with a massive pinch of salt but, with so many big names involved, it's great fun speculating on it all. |

i was on a pre arranged family visit in manchester so missed the opportunity to go to wembley but i watched the game crouched around a mates blackberry tablet thing on a pub's wifi on a dodgy stream! i think we fully deserved to win, and if Wilbrahim had had some more game time during the season his confidence would have been higher and he probably would have buried at least 1 of his chances. that said he is not a prem quality striker and with Murray out till christmas we need to get a couple in! i thought tactically and defensively against Watford and Brighton we were very good, which is a good sign but we have maybe 3 or 4 players who are prem quality so we need to add some (alot!) more if we're gonna stand a chance next season |
It doesn't look like they're keeping Zaha on loan but I hope Phillips stays, if only for another season.
|
to be honest i think Bolasie is as good as Zaha (just without the hype)
i really hope Kevin Phillips stays. Coming on as a sub midway through the 2nd half really seems to give teams the shits, but i dont think he'd manage a whole 90 minutes |
Yeah, I totally agree about Phillips. I've heard that Holloway wants to get Acuna from Real. I've not seen him play, he's been out on loan to Genoa, but he seems to have done all right with them. I've also heard they're competing with West Ham to get Barca's Marc Batra (me neither) on loan.
I did a googleimage search for Acuna and he at least looks a bit like Messi. ![]() Unless they're talking about this Javier Acuna ![]() Can't see Suarez being too eager to bite him if they are. |
bayern just won the dfb pokal in an interesting 3-2 match vs. stuttgart, some beautiful goals.
tymoschuck says "99% sure" heynckes going to madrid, heynckes says "no" but he might say something else right after they finish with the trophies. bayern told heynckes that he can stay and do whatever he wants, if he wants. |
