Didn't Barce release their financials last week with €40m listed as an "unamed and unmovable intangible obligation" (basically a deal they've agreed to sign someone) which Balague was saying was Neymar?

He did well at Blackburn (although during his management there Blackburn were the Stoke of the time. Dirty team) but that's it. Fulham was all Roy's work.

Barca isnt buying neymar
This. A lot of the RAWK mob were incensed that we didn't get him.
Yep, I saw that. He's probably going to Barca but I'm sure Real are extremely interested in Neymar.

Its a bit harsh to say a managers work is entirely down to that of another manager. Because if you were going to go down that road I was reading yesterday people saying that what Rodgers did at Swansea was all off the work that Martinez put down at Swansea.
Hughes could have easily walked in and fucked things up but he didn't.

I don't think that's unfair when he only spent 11 months there. It's hard to form a real opinion with only that amount of time.
Yeah, I agree with this. He did a good job at Fulham, eighth is a great position for them. Don't agree he just carried on Roy's work.
Both are class but why the fuck do we never get linked with centre midfielders
I'm sure everyone is interested. Doesn't mean they can afford them.
Txikikixikikxixxxiki influence will be great. Not saying we will sign Neymar but we will always be linked to the world class players. We'll sign a massive player soon enough though. Falcao plz.

Don't see United interested in Jackson Martinez, seeing as he's already 26.
J-Rod's probably a replacement for Nani, although I don't see how your squad needs another striker, so Martinez makes little sense.Both are class but why the fuck do we never get linked with centre midfielders
Cleverley, Carrick, and Rooney isn't a bad midfield trio, with Kagawa still to return. I often feel United's midfield 'problems' are exasperated. Carrick and bald Tom are no less a pair than Barry/Rodders, Mikel/Ramires to me. There's individual merits to each pairing, but on the balance of things neither one of them is in their own league.
You'd say that Liverpool and Arsenal both have a better 'midfield', but if there's no creativity on the wings or up front then it's completely worthless.

If we get Ha-mez, man, MANNN, that'd be awesome.
RVP is 30.
I read this as AgentRodwell and:
The thing is though, we shouldn't be playing Rooney and Kagawa in centre midfield and Carrick and Cleverley are missing a Keane type player alongside them. If I had utmost faith that Fletcher would reach the level he was at before or Anderson played consistently well for more than 25 minutes at a time, then I wouldn't necessarily see the need for a centre midfielder (considering we have Powell, Jones and in emergency Rooney who can all play there).
Ramires would have been a good buy for us, just has that extra little bit of steel to him that I think we're missing. Arsenal fair enough, but Arteta's a better player than our midfield, even if yesterday he did fuck all #supertom
I can't believe I'd fucking kill for Liverpool's midfield. Lucas and Sahin would be great for us.

This is my new favourite thing.
People were calling him 30 in the summer, and look how tired a point that is now. Age doesn't dictate a player, especially when the age people are quoting is wrong.
People should save themselves the embarrassment.
:lol what have I done!
Reading used the money cheat? How much did they spend in the summer?
:lol RVP is good. I'd rather have my 24 year old Sergio Aguero though.

Monumental fuck up by Celtic against Dundee United. 2-0 up after 90 minutes, finished 2-2.

Me too. I feel like I shouldn't but I think some of her songs are great.
If I were picking a Manchester strike-force, at the moment I'd go with RVP & Tevez.
Yep. Her album's a bit samey but there's a fair few tunes on it.
And RVP and Rooney link up good so I'd have them, but Tevez is class, as is Aguero obv.
I'm wrong about Reading, they just got a load of free transfers. Although they're owned by Russian billionaires lol.

Someone should gif the QPR chairman's sons reaction looked so bored
In fairness to you, I think it's likely that they'll splurge in January.
