He doesn't seem particularly thrilled about it. ;)

Wearing that shirt, I don't blame him. :p

His time with us has sucked, injured almost literally the whole time.

He did come on and assist Messi's first goal against Madrid in the CL Semi's, before Messi scored that amazing solo goal. Other than that though, injured and loaned out lol.

Chelsea are a laundering operation with less dignity than Andres' sexual conquests.

It can be a tight run thing sometimes.

I'd say it's probably not one of the big European clubs if you really wanted to get into 'most shameful club', it's much more likely to be some obscure club like that Qatari team which basically kidnapped that French player for several years.

Lol. Jan Kirchhoff already injured at his second day with Schalke...
Mourinho sell a player to Pep? Lol yeah good luck with that.

And £20 is not enough to buy Luiz.
You're right. 15 million then.
Those inflated prices in England didn't work for Boateng and he joined for 12 million and not for 25 that city wanted. We know how to negotiate even with mou.

I think Lewa is enough for this summer actually. A defender would be nice, but Lewa is the true star signing. I don't even like him, but consider him an upgrade from Mario M. Lewa is made for Pep's system.

The excellent @Rafanelli reports this morning, that Real Madrid tried to hijack Lewandowski transfer to Bayern by offering 81m Euro.

lol

Most shameful club in world football ? Probably.

Cute that they tried it. But the brand Real Madrid is not what it used to be anymore. It worked when they stole Van Nistelrooy from us. But not anymore.

Source for that please? Not some shitty rumour site please. City bought him for £10m, he was injured for a year and was completely shit so I don't understand why City would request 25m.

Satirical article about Bayern buying Dortmund (in German)

BVB.jpg


http://www.der-postillon.com/2013/04/transferwahnsinn-fc-bayern-munchen.html

Bayern-Stürmer Thomas Müller freut sich schon jetzt, dort kommende Saison unter der Regie von Pep Guardiola und Co-Trainer Jürgen Klopp spielen zu dürfen: "Machen wir uns nichts vor. Die Atmosphäre in der Allianz Arena war schon nett, aber die Stimmung im Signal Iduna Park ist einfach tausend Mal geiler."

and..

Meet Bayern Munich, the greediest pro sports team in the world

Imagine if the Miami Heat, the best basketball team in the world and two-time defending champions, were somehow able to sign away one of the best players from a rival team, and money was no object. If the Heat nabbed Russell Westbrook from the Thunder, solidified itself as an unstoppable juggernaut, and then went back and lured away Kevin Durant, it would absolutely break the NBA. The Heat would never, ever lose, and instead the only real drama would exist within daytime television conversations about whether or not they were the best team in NBA history. This is more or less exactly what Bayern Munich has done in the last 18 months or so.

Yeah, fuck Bayern. They buy ever promising good player in the league. If they keep doing this I can't see Dortmund, Leverkussen or Schalke getting near them anytime soon.
 

Walshy

they killed the league. everytime one of the rivals even comes close they'll simple buy their best players from now on.
Haven't Bayern always done that?

Remember the Leverkusen team that got the UCL final in 2002? They robbed Ballack from that team for example and later got Lucio as well.
 
Hahaha, I can't

There's more about this Real offer than that tweet indicated. Last December, Perez ordered some lawyer (allegedly a pre-contract "breaker" expert) to make Lewandowski sign for Real. Real offered Lewandowski a 6 year contract with 9.5m a year, a 10m signing fee and 14m for his agents. So, although the 81m offer sounds like a lot, it's not really far from what Bayern is paying.

Now comes the hilarious part, Bayern heard about it at the club world cup. Hoeneß allegedly ranted: "That's a declaration of war!". And then Rummenigge got scared as shit and called Watzke asking what we are doing with Lewandowski and Real. We. looooool

This story just keeps on giving.

People on Redcafe are idiots.

They are all jizzing over the prospect of us signing Coentrao for £12m. He's fucking awful.

For those of you following @WHorton4, it's a fake account. The real Warwick Horton (Theo Walcott's agent) has asked Twitter to take it down

I'd take it.

Not too keen on him but surely any LB is an improvement over Evra. I'd stick with Evra for the rest of the season and throw everything at Southampton for Shaw in the summer.

Maybe Alex Sandro could be worth a punt as well. Stay away from Baines, Everton will have our pants down.

i feel like punishing myself, gonna watch West Ham. i'll report anything exciting (HA!).

Morrison hat trick.

Not sure actually, just seen it being reported but if it originated from him then we are good.

The best players want to play in the Champions League.

God I was hammered last night.

Macclesfield is a great place though, had a blast. Don't think I've ever been to a place with more pubs in such a short distance. Brilliant.

Meeeeeeeeeee.

Betting on a struggling Premiership club with fixture congestion and a semi-final in midweek away at a high flying Championship club IS daft, though.
 
26 minutes in. not much going on. it's so quiet you could hear a fair lady fart.

Weakened Forest side, West Ham playing a bunch of kids, midday game on a Sunday that's also on TV.

Bootaaay, is it true than if you say "relegation" 5 times in front of a mirror, Big Sam's face appears?
