It's okay, do it. I'll use the tablecloth to mop up.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus have taken Udinese's Pablo Armero on loan with option to buy.

We're digging Udinese's grave here.

Dat Jeep sponsorship in action.

You know Matri is upset when you see no highlights in his hair.

Jeep girls not nearly as cool as Betclic girls so far.[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/M2ASl.gif

Sky Sports has issued an apology for advertising to customers that they could watch Rangers in 3D.

They meant Rangers in D3.

Bye bye Maxi, you made me happy on many occasions.

Spurs starting 11 is pretty good.

If they get Lloris and Moutinho they'll be great. They need a striker as well as Ade though, and I'm not talking about Defoe.

One striker away from having a fucking brilliant transfer market.

Just one Marotta.

one.

two pls
 
You guys made Kyoufu quit the thread? WHAT THE HELL GUYS?! Ky...come back!

Moura - These Brazilian clubs always come out and say they've had bids for their players. Just a tool to stoke up interest IMO.

Eriksen - Want. Plz. Happen.

King won't be in Spurs' first team, it'll be Kaboul probably. And Kagawa won't play deep. But really looking forward to next year, should be good battles across the whole league.

If I were Ferguson, I'd buy a solid CM. But then again, Í think he knows what he is doing.

Hope so. The Moura price is crazy. If we got Eriksen and a Moutinho or Sahin, I'd be happy. The fact that the reports originated in the local Dutch media lend it some credence.
 
Who was missed more by their team last season, Vidic or Lucas?

Vidic has better cover, but his absence may have cost them the title
Lucas has awful cover, but even with him I doubt we'd have come higher than 6th, 5th at a stretch

&#8364;20m is still too much. I doubt he'd be able to well in the PL already. Best option would be to buy him for &#8364;10m + bonus and loan him back to Ajax for another season. He'll need (at least) another season in a lower league before making a successful transition to PL/La Liga.

All over my face.

If you all thought Salazar's love for T-Clevz was bad, you're in for a treat.

Dear Reds, I am leaving Liverpool FC today.

Before signing for LFC, I just saw the club as one of the greatest institutions in football. After my time here I can confirm that this is not just a great club but also a great family.

I have tried to give everything every day that I was wearing the LFC crest. It has been a great honour to defend this shirt during two and a half years. I am returning home with a suitcase full of great memories, good friends within the team and also within this great family that works every day in the club. Thanks a lot for your support. You can NOT imagine what a great honour it was for me when the Kop sang, 'Maxi, Maxi Rodríguez runs down the wing for me da da da da dada...'

Hasta la vista.

Maxi

Farewell Maxi. Best of luck, hope we meet again soon.

Need to sign Gaston Ramirez now, he's the only target we have that fits that song...

According to Twitter; Sterling, Ibe and Morgan are going too.

Maxi seems like a top bloke. It's the right decision for him and the club though.

That open letter bought a tear to my eye. More training pictures of Aquilani and Borini would bring a tear to my third eye.

My favourite song's now dead, don't really want to rehash it for a different player.

You can say that again.

Feel bad saying it, but Kenny's stubborness has cost Rodgers a decent player I think

Possibly, but Maxi leaving just opens up the opportunity to seek long term solutions.

As I said, Maxi and Kuyt leaving will free up enough wages for 2 or 3 quality young players. Just depends on whether FSG are willing to take the short term hit in terms of transfer fees.

Couldn't agree more. He really doesn't offer the team that much any more consider he's probably on the best part of 60-70k
