€68 million plus add ons for Illaramendi is insane. RM got bent over there.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Phew it's a good thing Real didn't pay 85M for him, you cunt.

Cos you were rude I'm making it €86m.

 

[panty]

€65 million, with add ons.

No.

So me and my GF kinda signed up at the gym, 6 week offer thingy. We get 6 weeks worth of membership for less than 1 months fee, access to all facilities and classes etc. So I go for my induction... He asks what sport I play if any, so I say 5 a side twice a week. So we agree to a cardio routine to increase my overall fitness and stamina!

Well fuck me, I'm tired.

Excercise Bike, Treadmill, Cross trainer, rower and more bike.

I've got different targets on the equipment, time based, distance traveled etc. For example on the rower I do 4 intervals of 100m as fast as possible with a 1 min cooldown inbetween the intervals. My best time so far is 100m in 23 seconds, he wants it less than 20 seconds.

the treadmill, excercise bike and cross trainer sound like a waste of money. you're already doing cardio by playing five a side every week, are you not? in your situation i'd rather focus on weight lifting instead.

I'm a bit limited in my ability with weight lifting at the moment cause of my finger. I've essentially got 2 fingers and a thumb on my left hand. So I'd rather not risk dropping something heavy on myself haha.

I can do that one more time and then switch it up with the instructor.

Yeah that's too much cardio. Get lifting DC.

Do legs then.

Damn.

Bebe's beard is pretty slick.

I'll have a word with him next time I go. There's plenty of shit in that gym that's for sure.

 

[Arnie]

I'm sure Bebe was an actor in City of God.

If you strap up your finger you should be able to do some moderate lifting.

 

[ShogunX]

Of course him being a cunt factors into the price. Do you think Joey Barton would command the same fee as Scott Parker despite them being of similar quality?

Him being a cunt might of put off a few off a few clubs from making a bid, but considering Arsenal have already bid 40m+ it seems his value hasn't dropped.

Going for physio on it on Wednesday. I'll see after that but at the minute I have no movement in it at the second knuckle. It really, really sucks. It's extreeeeeeeme

 

[LanceVance]

This transfer window is getting interesting. Bale, Suarez, Fabregas, Bebe. Make or break.

Just watched The Imposter, very gripping and creepy

 

[Zabojnik]

So how long before Messi and Neymar are at each other's throats?

Weird film that one. I left the film with the impression that a family member had killed the young boy and therefore knew all along that the imposter wasn't actually their son.

 

[Zabojnik]

Thanks for that spoiler, ShogunX.

 

[K1LLER7]

Damn.

Bebe's beard is pretty slick.

The 2 players who will bring us the treble.

They're like new signings.

Woodward stop.

We don't have a chance of signing these guys. Madrid won't sell.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Come on guys, you got loads of CM's and this is more money for your Bale fund.

Let's do it.

Didn't the lawyer guy explain that release clauses are illegal in England? Players have clauses that allow them to speak to other clubs once a certain fee is met but the fee can be rejected.

Yep. Release clause don't exist in the English game.

 

[FootballFan]

All this cost analysis is bollocks.

A player is worth whatever the selling club is willing to sell him for and whatever the buying club is willing to pay.

Illaramendi isn't actually "worth" €85m is he, but RM were willing to put it down, so that was the price.

Yep, that argument sucks imo. "Torres cost 50m so _____ should cost at least that". If that was the case, J. dos Santos is worth 40m since he is better than Carroll, who was sold for 35m.

If Liverpool value Suarez at 95m then that's what they value him at, has nothing to do with Torres or Carroll.

You also make a good point with Illarramendi, is he really 2 and a half times better than Isco? No, but he cost 2 and half times more because that is how much Sociedad wanted.

 

[Vivalaraza]

I know that article is bollocks cos it's John Cross and cos he says "Arsenal have been in a similar position with Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas".

They're not similar. Arsenal are the only club who let their good players leave as soon as they want to and put up 0 fight in negotiations.

Jokers.

Thanks for that spoiler, ShogunX.

Aww it's a great movie, that was a spoiler unfortunately. Still should be able to enjoy it...I think.

Great film.

 

[Error]

Hahahaha Moyes, hilarious. Taking transfer muppetry to another level.

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Guys Illarramendi cost was €32M. Stop pulling numbers from your asses.

 

[Arnie]

:lol

United move for Modric.

£25 million, that's like a third of Illaramendi. Where are the limitless funds?

 

[dc89]

Hmm. I wonder if Pellegrini is going to make a move for a defender now that Nastasic is laid up for a good few weeks.

 

[ShogunX]

Aww it's a great movie, that was a spoiler unfortunately. Still should be able to enjoy it...I think.

No it wasn't. The movie is basically a form your own opinion piece.

That's not true. Chelsea activated Demba Ba's clause in January.

We'll watch it thinking

[Ushojax]

£25m for Modric is taking the piss. Madrid are not going to take a £10m hit on a player they signed a year ago. Modric can still become a key player for Madrid, Alonso is over the hill now and Khedira is shit. If he can't get into the first XI then he's not working hard enough.

Modric is not for sale. You can however buy Kaka, he's awesome and for sale.

I wonder if Daniel Levy slapped a fat sell on clause on Modric. Apparently Madrid still owe Spurs a decent chuck of the transfer fee as well.

 

[panty]

We may never know the truth.

"On this day, Real Madrid C. F. paid Real Sociedad an amount of €32.19 million for the acquisition of the federal rights of Asier Illarramendi. This operation, as in all transfers of players between Spanish clubs, is subject to current VAT of 21%, which means no cost to Real Madrid C. F, since this amount is deductible from the club's VAT settlements."

 

[Mastadon]

That's not true. Chelsea activated Demba Ba's clause in January.

Yeah, the £22m Fellani clause is pretty well document too.

 

[Vivalaraza]

I reckon we'll get get Modric.

BEHOLD MOYES' UNITED

----------De GOAT---------

Rafael - Rio - Vidic - Baines

Zaha - Carrick - Modric - Nani

-------------Kagawa-----------

It says €86m like right there.

What's the problem.

 

[Can Crusher]

Cristiano Ronaldo would have to make way for Gareth Bale at Real Madrid

Are these guys for real? So now Bale is such a star, Ronaldo has to bend over to him?

 

[ShogunX]

Yeah, the £22m Fellani clause is pretty well document too.

Weird how it was Bill Kenwright who leaked the exact amount of the clause. Seemed like a plea for somebody to buy Fellaini to fund Martinez.

Was it not Harry Redknapp who first mentioned it?

Or did he not mention the exact figure? That must be it.

 

[Sleeplessnights]

It will be hard to forgive Modric.

You know it. So we'll have Neymar and Messi fighting on one side, Bale and Ronaldo on the other. Glorious.
